How about a place name?

Mine is Siobhan. I love it but nobody can spell it 😂

I absolutely love Soleil. But only works with the right kind of surname.. it would sound ridiculous with Smyth:) but would sound good with let’s say “Kennedy”

Different perspective maybe but I also love unusual names. My two boys have names that don't even appear in the baby name lists because fewer than 3 kids were given them that year.

Both of them have more conventional middle names though - just in case they're not such fans of their names as I am!

I think you could also pair Jodhi with a traditional name like:
Jodhi Kathryn
Jodhi Emma
Jodhi Marie

Just a thought!

I didn’t read Jodhi as Jody (Joe-dy) at first to be honest, I thought it looked like it rhymed with body.

ifeelabitsad · 24/01/2022 22:26

Please please don't saddle a child with the name Jodhi. She will spend all her life explaining it. I read it as Jodhigh and then joedie.

perimenofertility · 24/01/2022 22:37

I read it pronounced as Jody, also rhyming with Bodhi.
What about Jodhi Illaria? (ill-ah-ria) It's a character name in a programme I'm watching now.

Jodhi Jayne
Jodhi Anharad
Jodhi Kalea (Hawaiian name, means joy and happiness )

Loads of people will pronounce it Joddy I expect. But loads of people pronounce all sorts of names wrong so I wouldnt be too fussed.

I can guarantee nobody else in her preschool will share it.

I know someone who chose Treasure as a middle name for her DS as it was unique. Only he went to school with another child with the same middle name. The DM was not impressed.

Jodhi will be misspelt. She'll be Johdi, Jodhie, Jodey, Jody, Jodie and Jodee

Marcipex · 25/01/2022 13:46

Jodhi Fenella
Jodhi Amanda
Jodhi Beryl

Jody always reminds me of Amityville Horror!

I read Jodhi as 'Joddy' too.

It's ok but OP it's quite bland really. Jody sounds a bit 80s to me (Forget the spelling, when it's called out no one will have the feel of how it's spelled, she'll just be Jody).

Jodhi Elizabeth
Jodhi Charlotte

If you want a proper 80s feel, Jodhi Gemma, Jodhi Laura?

It looks worse the more I type it though I have to say! Argh I wouldn't do it OP, I think you'll go off this one.
