Hello i am struggling with choosing a name for my baby girl.
I like elegant, classic names but nothing that is too popular / overused.
Her brother is Noah so i'd like to choose a name that flows nicely with this. Any inspo is greatly appreciated, thank you!

@BrutusMcDogface

My first thoughts for elegant, classic and timeless were Elizabeth and Eleanor.
Mine too. 😊 Also Grace.

I love old traditional names, all my daughters have them. None are popular names. All my DDs names have personal meanings to myself and DH, named after grandmothers, family & cultural names. Maybe look through your family histories and see if you like the names that you find, that way there is more meaning. Or if you have something particular you love, character in a story, historical figure, I always loved emmeline after Emmeline Pankhurst.
