Needing a baby girl name

[Je333ie]

Currently pregnant and really struggling to find a baby girls name we both like. Totally settled on our boys name but can't finalise a girls so I've came here for some help. Currently on our girls list is

. Penelope
. Saffie ( hubby's fave)
. Nell
. Sadie
. Indigo

Hubby likes less traditional names and more unusual or nn vibes. I'm veering more towards traditional and thinking more Penelope with nn Nell or just a stand alone Nell. The thing that is putting me off going with Penelope is the nn penny which ( no offence to anyone) but I really dislike. Please give me your opinions on fave name out of these?

Nell

Romilly?

Love Nell, what about Rose, or Rosie?

I also adore Nell but wasn't sure it would be good as a stand alone name. R names are a no go as surname is R and don't want the double initial thing.

What about Florence/florrie?

I love Nell (I know one she is lovely) and I think indigo/Indie is lovely

I love Nell
Also love
Tess
Marnie
Violet
Sadie

Love Sadie,it's so suitabled at all ages.

I like Sadie and Nell from your list.

Saffie is faffie springs to mind and it’s fine for a child but doesn’t sound right for an adult.

How about Tess/Tessa.

Also love Nell and Sadie.
Penelope doesn’t necessarily have to become Penny, especially if you use Nell day to day.

Not Saffie - I can't hear without thinking of Edwina Monsoon. Saffie daaaarling

I liked Penelope for a girl. Not keen on Penny either.

I found girls names hard and with both pregnancies I had a boys name set but options for a girl.

Front runner for a girl was Eleanor nn Nora. But when DD was born it just didn't work for her and we went with Cerys instead

Nell.Good, strong, unambiguous to spell.

Dont like Saffie all I can only think of is Sassy Saffie. Plus if the child has a lisp that is a mouthful.

I have a lisp and loved the names Ruth and Martha but I couldn't use them as I would say Roof and Marfa!

Sadie is very 80s old fashioned.
Indigo is too far out for me.

If you are going to shorten to Penny then it's a no for Penelope.

Out of that list Nell is my fave.

I love Penelope with nn Nell.
Also really like Sadie, or even Zadie.

Nell is gorgeous. Traditionally from Helen or Eleanor. Both great names. Although I like the spelling Elinor.

What about Norah

Helena could shorten to Nell

Penelope and Sadie are my favourites.

Saffron, nn Saffie?

Suggestions
Clementine, nn Clemmie
Tilly
Sylvia
Scarlett
Jasmine

I like Nell. My Auntie Nell is Helen (think that's quite common in Scotland).

I don't mind Penelope but Nell is awful.

Indigo is a bit too "out there" for me.

Sadie is OK.

But Saffie, I absolutely LOVE that name.

I think Saffie is very cute!

My personal favourite girl names are :
Honey
Misty
Blossom
Bonnie
Holly

I can’t stand Penny either but Penelope nn Nell is nice

I’d probably go for Sarah nn Sadie - it traditionally was a nn for Sarah and I prefer it as that

or -

Nancy (As a nn for Anna or stand alone)
Katharine nn Kate or Kit
Caitlin nn Cait
Liv
Marina nn Marnie
Vivienne nn Vivi
Jean
Zoe
Tessa (can be a nn for Teresa or Esther)
Frances nn Frankie
Jocelyn nn Joss
Elizabeth nn Buffy or Betsy
Lois
Dorothea nn Dorey or Dorrie
Cassia nn Cassie
Caroline nn Callie

I can’t hear Saffie without hearing darling, but anyway I think that really is a nn and needs to be Saffron or Safina or.. Sapphire I
guess

It’s very hard to get a nn to stick because others may use different nn’s - you may call a Penelope Nell but she may get called Penny by her peers.

I actually like Saffie and Sadie from your list.

other Suggestions
Caroline nn Callie
Beatrice nn Bea or Trixie
Annabell nn Belle of Anna
Isabel nn Belle or Izzy
Katherine nn Kate or Katie
Octavia nn Tavi
Victoria nn Vicki or Tori
Harriet nn Hattie or Hari
Felicity nn Lici
or
Faye
Anna
Anya
Tessa
Cora
Beth
