I love Moe for a girls name but would prefer a longer version too.
I know 'Ramona' is one option...can anyone else make any other suggestions?

Marjorie as in Mo Mowlam.

What about Marlowe?

HangTheJib · 11/11/2023 02:06

I know a girl called Moe (or it could be Mo) and it's short for Monica.

EBearhug · 11/11/2023 02:10

All the Mos I've known have been Maureen (and my mother's generation.)

bizzey · 11/11/2023 02:10

Mo is / can be used as a shortened version of Maureen I think .

FramboiseRoyale · 11/11/2023 02:11

The only Moe I know is named Maureen.

StayGoldAgain · 11/11/2023 02:12

We use Mo as a nickname for Imogen.

bizzey · 11/11/2023 02:15

Quite a few Welsh spellings of Morgan .

Möet 😜

or, actual suggestion, Harmony. Marlowe as a PP mentioned, that’s very cool.

Missingthegore · 11/11/2023 02:25

Is it just me that looks at "Moe" and thinks masculine? For a girl it would be "Mo".

OrderOfTheKookaburra · 11/11/2023 02:31

Not traditional but you could use it for Amelia, Emily, or any other Am or Em names.

WandaWonder · 11/11/2023 02:41

Moustache and barman is what I associate it with

DesperateHousewife2018 · 11/11/2023 02:42

Morgana? As in Morgana Robinson (winner of Taskmaster series 12)

Junebughustle · 11/11/2023 02:46

I know an Imogen who goes by Mo

caringcarer · 11/11/2023 02:57

I know a woman called Mo and her name is Mourine.

cornbeefpancakes · 11/11/2023 03:03

Mo is short for Maureen. Moe is short for Maurice.

Forgottenmypasswordagain · 11/11/2023 03:05

My friend Monique goes by Mo.

Moesha is the only one that comes to mind in addition to PP. I'm sure you'll get five pages of Maureen incoming.

ovulationleavesmetired · 11/11/2023 04:16

Some goodies in here!

Maureen makes me go awwww as it's the name of a very dear elderly neighbour of mine. So that gets a tick for sentimental reasons.

Morgan I also like as it's a family name.

Moana is a contender.

Marlowe...I like!

I'm a fan of unusual names, particularly gender neutral ones (already have 2 daughters with gender neutral names)
