satellitesunshine · 14/07/2023 18:30

or savannah?

WunWun · 14/07/2023 18:31

I like Shiloh, but I've only ever known it for dogs

presenterspackitinffs · 14/07/2023 18:33

I like Shiloh but unless you've done 3 threads this week using it I've seen it multiple times on MN recently and expect it won't be very unusual at all if it has been multiple posters threads soon

Savannah
Cheyenne
Serenity
Serena

No.

Aria999 · 14/07/2023 18:41

I think of Shiloh as a boy name (I know two baby boy Shilohs)

Saskia
Sariyah
Shelley
Sofia
Sara
Shae

Louise is nice. Shiloh seems a bit unisex. Not keen on Louise as a middle name as it was overused in the 1970s and 1980s

RaininSummer · 14/07/2023 19:22

Do you pronounce Shiloh like Sheila. Never seen that name

DuchessOfSausage · 14/07/2023 19:27

I think it's more like Shy-lo

Samzzz · 14/07/2023 19:30

Pronounced Shy-low

I like both names but seems like a very odd pairing
Shiloh is very biblical with Jewish origins and pretty eastern in sound
Louise is of Germanic origin and very European

Shiloh was pretty much unheard of until Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie called their daughter it.

I'd presume you were a big fan.

This. I’ve only ever heard of it as their child’s name.

PickledScrump · 14/07/2023 20:11

To me it’s a boys name, not a fan of it

Saskia
Soraya
Sasha
Shay

OopsieeDaisy · 14/07/2023 21:29

Shannon

continentallentil · 15/07/2023 10:27

How about Clio ?

NewDogOwner · 15/07/2023 10:38

No. The two 'L' sounds don't work.

user1492757084 · 15/07/2023 10:42

Stella Louise
Scarlett Louise
Sonia Louise
Sabine Louisa

ArbitraryHaddock · 15/07/2023 11:26

Agree the names are mismatched, and the double L sound is not great. I also only know it as a pet name. I like some of the suggestions upthread, especially Shae, Sonia and Stella.

ArbitraryHaddock · 15/07/2023 11:26

Although, of course Stella still has the double L.

ErrolTheDragon · 15/07/2023 11:49

Biblical city, quite a few American towns, and an american civil war battlefield....not a vibe I'd go with
