I like Nadia - never heard of Nyah. Your MN name made me think of Perdita - (just don't think about dalmations and it sounds quite nice!!!!!)

artichokes · 22/02/2008 19:39

My friend's DD is Perdita. People call her Purdey.

taffy101 · 22/02/2008 19:55

Hmm, the name is growing on me. May have to TTC!!

Fartica, Quimmie, Areola. Sorry...

Aime, Libby, Claudette, Erin, Hetty, Lysette, Amber, Stacy, Tamara, Stella, Saskia, Saffron, Jenna, Pia, Natalia, Thalia. (No idea whether some of these are modern or ancient but I wouldn't call them trad).

How can Tabitha be on this list. It is a biblical name - hardly modern!!!!

CantSleepWontSleep · 22/02/2008 20:41

Forgot to suggest Liberty.

chocolateshoes · 22/02/2008 20:41

am thinking through friends DDs!

sweetkitty · 22/02/2008 20:43

I have a Talia and I love the name suits her so well it's an ancient biblical name just unusual.

If DB3 is a girl I want a similar name (not sounding) but unusual but not wacky or too modern IYSWIM.

cupsoftea · 22/02/2008 20:44

Talia is a lovely name
