We are stuggling to find a girls name that has a similar vibe to Bodhi & Lochlan. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I follow a surfer dad and he's little girl on tiktok, her names saylor and she is just the cutest child ever. I think that name has the same vibe as your others x

Saylor is a lovely name - I'll be adding to my list. Thanks x

Lachlan to me is more haggis thrower than surfer. The two names (whilst both very nice) do not share a similar vibe at all. You can choose any name and it will fit. In my head Tristan is a surfers name.

Haha 'haggis thrower' made me laugh 😃 I understand. I suppose age and location might affect how people view the names I have used.

If you use it please spell Sailor like this not Saylor, it just looks wrong.

Lochlan isn't a surfer. He's made entirely from tweed and just about to nip down to the archives to find some antique parchment detailing the sale of goods act in 17th century Dundee. When he's found his good specs of course.

I think with the disparity between the two boys names, you can go for anything. In fact, I'd go off piste and pick something like Calliope or Antigone (Callie and Tiggy are suitably surfer as well).

So long as she's not fat

Porridgeislife · 03/12/2023 16:47

Brontë, Lana, Zoe, Zara/Tara, Bonnie, Heidi are all names I’d imagine an Australian parent would go for after Bodhi and Lachie.
