Help! A girls name after 3 boys…

I always thought it would be easy to name a little girl after having to come up with 3 boys names. But I’m really struggling!

This is my short list -

Imogen
Heidi
Esme
Amber
Anya

Not very short! Any thoughts? Don’t want something likely to be really common.

Thanks xx

Imogen but I don't like May or Rae as middle names.

TopsieGreenwood · 30/01/2022 17:40

I love Heidi and wish I could have used it

Heidi

Lovely list. I like Imogen best and Esme least, though perhaps it’s the one that goes best with your boys’ names …

sweepthenmop · 30/01/2022 21:29

I like them all. Probably Esme least. Also like Xanthe, Zoe and Yasmin (end of the baby name bookWink)

VanillaAndOrange · 30/01/2022 21:33

Heidi or Amber, but I have a think about not giving two children the same initial so personally I'd pick Heidi.

Erictheavocado · 30/01/2022 21:38

Heidi, without any hesitation. Always loved the name since I read the book as a child. I've known a couple in my years working in school and still love it.

Like Anya but prefer Anna.

CormoranStrike · 30/01/2022 21:55

Imogen or Amber for me.

What about Freya or Julia?

bxbynxmelxver4 · 05/02/2022 03:21

Imogen, Heidi, or Esme

octoberfarm · 05/02/2022 03:31

Love Heidi and really like Imogen too. Congrats!

Ostagazuzulum · 05/02/2022 04:13

Love Imogen

If I ever have a little girl she'd be a Heidi 😍

LozMarieFielder · 05/02/2022 08:14

Whilst I like Amber and Anya, and Imogen isn't bad, it would be between Heidi and Esme for me.

Imogen, then Esme

BeKindBeYou · 06/02/2022 20:19

I’d go for Amber! :)

Holly60 · 06/02/2022 20:19

Imogen 100%. Love it so much. Also unlike a PP I love the nn Imo, Immy, Mimi etc.

Imogen also fits beautifully with your sons’ names.
