Girls name that meets crazy criteria

108 replies

TTC baby number 3, boys name is already picked but we really struggle with girls. We have a bit of a criteria for names, they have to be heard of but not overused, 5 letters and 2 syllables. Middle name will be Rebekah.
Some names that we like but don’t feel like the one are Carys, Cindy, Dinah, Heidi, Mavis and Moira.
Any ideas?

I really like Dayna /Dana but you’ve mentioned it upthread already!

ghislaine · 15/01/2023 19:03

Sorry, just realised that Merris is six letters but you could spell it Merys.

paganpath · 15/01/2023 19:04

Really like Dayna and Merys

Love Vaila, Lorna, Moria, Linda, Morag, I love Susan and definitely think it’s due a comeback. Also love Donna but that’s a family members name

I have read about Circe and I enjoy the story and think she is quite powerful

Have you read the Madeline Miller book Circe? It's written from Circe's pov. I finished it a couple of days ago, it's really good. Sorry, not any help for names although it may push you towards choosing Circe

It was recommended upthread. I’ll definitely give it a read, it sounds brilliant. I do love the name Circe
