Don’t like any girls names!

I have 4 DS’s with traditional names (think bible type or old English names). We’ve just found out our 5th baby will be a girl! Aside from being immensely shocked, I don’t like any girls names! I already had George Joseph picked for a boy, which I was certain it was!

I do like Millie but my DS’s have a cousin with the name. Mollie is nice but again I have friends with a Mollie. I quite like Maisie but wonder if it’s a bit twee? I like more traditional names - nothing wild - but I’ve trawled various baby names websites and I can’t find anything! Please help!

You like names that end with an ee sound. (Just call me Miss Marple!)

Georgia Josephine

Eloise - nickname Ellie (similar sounding to Maisie, Mollie, Millie etc).

Matilda - nickname Tilly (similar sounding again to those that you like).

If I'd had a girl, she would have been Evelyn Gwen (soft e on Evelyn). Sadly it was never required 🤣

Another vote for Georgia/Georgie

Mabel

User6761 · 18/05/2022 21:02

Madeleine (Maddy) has similar feel to Millie, Molly, Maisie.

If you like George and Joseph, then Georgina (Georgie), Joanna, Josephine (Josie).

A few other suggestions -

Eira
Rosie
Betsy
Francesca
Merryn (Merry)
Eleanor (Ellie)
Alexandra (Ali / Lexi)
Sadie

MassiveSalad22 · 18/05/2022 21:04

Marnie 😍

CertieCumboyle · 18/05/2022 21:07

Some reasonable suggestions here, but Macey is beyond awful.

I would also avoid Ottilie, as people pronounce it "Otterly", rather than "Ott-ee-lee-ah" (which is how it should be pronounced)

SoggyPaper · 18/05/2022 21:09

I would also suggest Georgina Josephine. You can call her George. Loads of Georgina’s go by George.

Georgia is lovely and not too popular
