Opinions on girl names

[Ipanema01]

I have 3 boys and we’re expecting a girl - after having a list for so long I’m now finding it really difficult! Appreciate these aren’t to everyone’s tastes but asking for opinions or favourites anyway :-)
Boys are Rafe, Milo and Otis.

Clementine
Cece
Gala
Lilac
Leonie
Etta
Iris
Leo
Clemence
Paloma
Appoline

Also open to any suggestions! Thanks 😊

Clementine - not my taste. -tyne or -teen?
Cece - no idea how to say it
Gala - did you mean Gaia? Gahla or Gayla?
Lilac - a bit different but quite nice
Leonie - ok
Etta - not keen. Ate a what?
Iris - nice
Leo - not for a girl
Clemence - makes me think think of a goalkeeper called Ray
Paloma - not keen but it's ok
Appoline - no

Iris

Another vote for Iris!

Maybe Astrid as well….

I like Leonie, Clementine and Paloma.

Leo is a boy's name, or did you mean Lea? Which is quite nice.

Congratulations! As your boys names are all 4 letters it seems in theme to keep baby girl’s 4 too.

of your list I like:

Cece - love this as a nn but not so sure as a full name (could be a nn for any C names though!) so what about Cali, Cora, Cara? Or slightly longer - Clara

Etta - I think this is the best one of your list! Gorgeous.

Iris - lovely but quite a mouthful with Otis

Leo - love this but people may assume you to have 4 DS when they just hear names- if that doesn’t bother you I do think it’s quite cool for a little girl

Other suggestions:

Rafe, Milo, Otis & Ayla
Rafe, Milo, Otis & Alys
Rafe, Milo, Otis & Anna
Rafe, Milo, Otis & Emma
Rafe, Milo, Otis & Alma
Rafe, Milo, Otis & Nora
Rafe, Milo, Otis & Leah
Rafe, Milo, Otis & Inés
Rafe, Milo, Otis & Wren

Ooh Leonie was on our list, love it and love Leo for a girl! Didn’t go for it as CBA with pronunciation issues - leah-nee, lee-OH-nee etc blah blah

Clementine/Clemecy/Cece could all spring from each other so I’d just go clementine nn Cece if you wanted one of those

Considered Paloma, love that too.

Pandora?

Clementine- Pronunciation issues Tyne ot teen? also clemy does unfortunately make be think clamy
Cece- What's it short for?
Gala - Is this spelt correctly? I don't know it as a name.
Lilac - Not keen
Leonie- ok
Etta- ok Henrietta?
Iris- like
Leo- boys name. everyone will assume she is a boy or you wanted another boy ( it does go well with your other boys though). Cleo??
Clemence- not keen
Paloma- ok
Appoline- ok

From your list I like only Iris - that's lovely name.

My favourite is Leonie, with Paloma and Clementine close runners up.

My least favourites are Etta Leo and Gala.

lf Gala is a mistype for Gaia I like that. Also like Cece as a nn for Celia Cicely or Cecilia.

You might Leah or Lydia or Aphra?

Inès is lovely, but if you use it, be prepared for people to get the accent mixed up.

I know a Lea (Lee, bloke, in his late 30s) and a Lea (Lay-ah, baby girl), so would spell it Leah or Lia.

Gala was Salvador Dali's wife, I doubt it is a typo for Gaia. Unfortunately in English Gala is not widely known as a name and would be assumed to be an event like a fete or fair.

How do you pronounce Cece?

Are you French OP? As a lot of your selected names are French. Especially Appoline which I understand is very fashionable in France. I don't really see the appeal to be honest, maybe I'm missing something.

Iris

My favourites on your list are Clementine, Paloma and Leonie.

Clara
Xanthe
Pearl
Greta
Beatrix
Elspeth
Genevieve
Naomi
Cordelia
Valerie

I like Leonie and Iris.

I like Paloma, Clementine, Leonie and Iris. Cece is cute but only as a nickname.
Not keen on the others, sorry.

Thank you for your opinions, it all helps even if not all are liked!

Gala isn’t a typo, a little girl we met in France years ago and I’ve loved it ever since but invariably I get ‘as in Gala Bingo?’ 😅 or like the apple. It doesn’t really put me off. I don’t like Gaia.

Leo I’m liking more and more and again it doesn’t put me off that’s it’s traditionally used for boys. Every girl’s name I hear seems to sound so cutesy or end in an ‘a’ and I think a little Leo could be cool!

Clementine I’ve had on my list for years and would be ‘Tyne’. I like Cece as a short name…

I really thought boys names were tricky …!

I’m not French (tho OH Is French Canadian), we probably can’t get away with the likes of Appoline realistically

I really like Iris, Clementine (pronounced Clemen-tyne) and Leo. Other suggestions: Ivy or Adaline?

Just my opinion but I'd not name a girl Leo after 3 boys as it might make people think you actually were wanting another boy? I'm probably over thinking though. I love most of your choices. Probably Clementine or CeCe my favourites. I also love Paloma, and maybe you'd consider Pia, Sylvie, Elodie or Cecile.

From your list I love Clementine and Cece. I think Cece is my favourite.
I have a dc with one of the same boy’s names as you, and another of your names was my second favourite so we have similar taste!

Clementine - love
Cece - not unless it’s a nickname for Cecily or Celeste or Cecilia. As a nickname I love it but it’s not okay as a full name
Gala - no what?
Lilac - it’s okay
Leonie - it’s nice but I prefer Eleni which has a similar feel somehow?
Etta - it’s okay
Iris - very pretty
Leo - it’s a boys name
Clemence - nice, prefer Clemency though
Paloma - lovely
Appoline - I don’t know what it makes me think of a horse.

Suggest: Saskia, Tabitha, Eleni, Lux, Mercy, Leonora

I don't think it would be fair to name a girl Leo, as her official name. There are so many boys named Leo.

You could use Leonie, Leonora or Leonore/Lenore, then use Leo for short. Then when she gets older she could drop the Leo if she chooses.

I'd have to choose a 4 letter name to go with the others. Like Etta and Iris from your list. What about Cleo if you like Leo?

Clementine, Iris, Etta 😍

leonie is ok. Prefer clemency to clemency. Only like leo for a boy
