Unusual/rare girls names

[cantthinkofanything1]

I have looked all over the baby name threads already on here and still can't find one we like. Almost 30 weeks pregnant with baby girl and we just cannot agree on a name.
We both like more unusual names but not so unusual that it would sound silly or be spelt ridiculous if that makes sense. I want a pretty name, something that sounds lovely and sweet but not something you would hear very often.
I really want to name her before shes here so please help us choose a name that we can agree on. Thanks in advance!

My gran was called Nella - never heard anyone called that since.

We do seem to lean more towards shorter names. Usually names that are just two syllables. Theres a few names that have been suggested so far that we've already discussed but not agreed on. Think we're being so fussy but want to get it right. I don't want to regret her name in the future. A few names that i like are: Mabel, Maeve, Rosa, Nova, Willow, Maya, Marcie, Joni, Nola.

Mabel, Maeva, Willow, Maya and Marcie are quite popular nowadays.

None of these are either rare or unusual really.

Rosa is the best I think.

Marley, Remi (was my next choice for DD but dp didn't like), hazel, Luna

Elka?

Amara
Kaori
Jura
Darla
Tora
Kora
Callia

Agree with Tatiana. None of those names are particularly unusual OP.

Sorry I should have added, it's a good idea to go to the local Playgroups/BFing Support Groups before LO arrives. Not only will you meet some local Mums & Mums-to-Be but you'll get a feel of what names are popular in your area.

I love Stella. Also loved Vada but the Death Star romper ruined that. Nel is lovely, Ellen as full. My youngest has what I’d call a very rare name, never heard of it before or since having her. My eldest had a name that was rare when she was born but now always top 100. Fashions change, you can’t guarantee it’ll stay rare.

I quite like Amaya, winter, sage and Darla from your suggestions. I work in a school so a lot of names that have been suggested I associate with children i know so it puts me off the name straight away. A lot of names that have been suggested i like but the spelling throws me off and if i think people could mispronounce it i get put off that name as well. Its so hard choosing a name but thank you everyone for your help!

Love Camille and Lena
