Girls names - help needed as baby is already here!

[Sunshinehouse]

Hi there
Would love love love input and help!
My second D was born last Thursday and my husband and I are getting no where with names. I like strong, masculine female names, he likes more traditional girly names.

My favourite names: Dillon, Sidney, Margot, Riley, Rafa. His favourite names Isabella, Emilia, Katherine

We had agreed on Frances, Robyn, Leonie and potentially Emilia, but we know a few Emmes already and that means that nickname is taken. Other names I liked Riley, River, Leila, Suki, Sylvie, Adeline, Leila, Lila, Orla, and Margot, but DH not keen on many of these.

I wanted something that could be strong and powerful, I’m an Alex and love having a unisex name, and added complication is that DD2 looks like my father in law and I feel she needs a strong name to pull off her strong features!

All help welcome, really need to decide and update people asap

Meghan

I like Riley and Katherine out of your choices.

Samantha?

Congratulations!

Camdyn

What about Cameron/Camryn? Or Blaire?

I also do really like Margot & Orla xx

Your husband seems to be saying no to a lot of your ideas. Make him come up with 5 you haven’t already rejected!

Girls named after recent former prime ministers is a new one on me. Still, better than Thatcher or Browne I suppose. May probably the best option!

Blake

Elizabeth?

Good shout

Hester
Honor or Honour
Matilda
Maud
Ursula

Katherine is a strong name.

I wouldn’t consider some of the names on you’d second list strong and masculine…..Sylvie a lovely name but quite girly.

Riley is awful.

Jean
Inez
Dakota
Willa
Romy

he seems to like frillier and more traditional names than you.

Sloane
Lois
Emmy

Congratulations! I like Robyn from the list you both agreed on, have you changed your mind on it? Could be Bobbie for short maybe.

Yes Robyn is lovely

Nicole?

Wren?

What about Harriet, Henrietta or Charlotte? Or Scout if you want something less traditional.

Frances is beautiful, and you could have Frankie as a nn.

@BowerOfBramble that’s a good idea, I’ll get him to do this :)

@DebbieHarrysCheekbones I think we’re both keenish on Robyn, maybe need to properly review it again as DH has a little head and actually is quite like a Robyn so suits her

Bryony

Cameron was my first thought although not a name I would personally choose.
Daniella / Danny
Drew
Roberta / Robbie / Bobby
Billy
Brooke
Georgia / George
Charlotte / Charlie
Marley

@TwoBigNoisyBoys glad you think so, I think this is the closest to an agreed name that we have, but it feels quite a serious name for a baby but obviously that will change.

@SE13Mummy I love Scout but husband not keen

Frederica/Freddie

Dh gets a prettier version of a name you can shorten to a more masculine name.

I like Robyn and Léonie. I love Léonie actually!

Or Andrea/Andra with Andi as a nickname?
