Names as beautiful as Lucy

174 replies

Ever since I was a little girl I have loved the name Lucy. It's not too long, has a bright youthful feel and is a classic. I've known for a while that when I became pregnant I wouldn't be able to use it because DH has a DD named Lucy, so the name is out of the question.

Can you recommend me some girls names that are just as beautiful?

I'm not keen on Elizabeth, Anna or Katherine as have been suggested to me by my mum.

I love Lucy too, and others on our list were Lizzie, Lottie, Penelope, Rosie and Iris. And we have a Gemma.

Lucy gives my the same vibe as Sally or Tracy or Helen.

I also love Lucy!

My other two names are

Ella
Rosa

VanillaAndOrange · 19/10/2021 09:16

I think Alice has a rather similar feel to Lucy.

ODFOgrinch · 19/10/2021 10:23

I know just what you mean about loving a name and thinking it so pretty OP. For me it is Meg (short for Margaret). I just think it's gorgeous.

danascully96 · 19/10/2021 10:30

Clara and Sylvie seems similar — both clear-eyed, rosy-cheeked names! Maybe Rose too?

magicstars · 19/10/2021 10:38

Tara, Zara?

KerryO87x · 19/10/2021 10:42

Aria
Millie
Violet
Sadie
Lily
Ella
Elsie

These are a mix of my daughter/nieces and friends DD's names and I love them all ❤️

CaptainCabinets · 19/10/2021 12:31

@FuckingFucksicles

Havent read the whole thread but fuck it this is your baby! If you met him and already had a Lucy would you not be with him? lol. Call her Lucy if you want or the Italian version (Lu-ch-ia) which is nice too.

Im a mum to a Lucy - but if I ever had another girl she would be named Aurora.

Best of luck :)

That’s a really horrible take. It’s her DH’s baby too, and he already has a Lucy. The new baby will be Lucy’s sister. They can’t both be called Lucy.

OP, I also love the name Lucy. Other names I like are Alice, Lara, Lily, Daisy, Ruby, Rosie. All of those will go nicely with Lucy Smile

TertiusLydgate · 19/10/2021 15:16

Incredulous that someone suggesting naming 2 daughters Lucy! 😂

FeedMeSantiago · 19/10/2021 16:33

Yeah Lucy is definitely out of the running in this case, OP's DH can't use the same name again.

Sophie/Sophia
Alice/Alicia
Sarah
Emily
Amy
Charlotte
Rose/Rosa/Rosalie/Rosanna/Rosalind/Rosemary
Juliet
Jessica
Ruby
Chloe
Victoria
Harriet
Anya
Isabel
Lydia
Leah

Luckily Lucy goes well with lots of names so you have lots you can consider.

Greenmarmalade · 19/10/2021 18:52

Are you pregnant and do you know it’s a girl?

Greenmarmalade · 19/10/2021 18:54

😂 at the suggestion to name Lucy’s sister Lucy.

I had a school friend whose dad did this (different name)- it was awful.

Chicchicchicchiclana · 19/10/2021 18:58

Smile at everyone joining in with the daydreaming on this thread.

Chicchicchicchiclana · 19/10/2021 19:01

I have a friend with a brother and step brother with the same name in a blended family. It's unfortunate but can't be helped as they were both born before the couple got together.

No one on earth would give their unborn (and as yet unconceived) child the same name as one of their step children. Ha!
