Hi. First time posting long time lurker lol. I’m having my 2nd baby in less than 2 weeks and cannot agree on a name.
My dd (Ava) was nameless for a couple of days and I would really like to have 1 or 2 contenders this time, so all help and suggestions are appreciated.
boy name will probably be
Roman James (double-barrelled) surname

girl names I like but other half doesn’t or says they are meh is…..

Cora
Georgia
Mya
Noa

I think max 2 syllables as the surname is double barrelled and don’t want it to be a tongue twister

Thank you in advance x

if ur gonna go for common side like Ava I would go with something like Emily, Annabel, Grace, Evie or Isabella I think Ava and Isabella go well together and Isabella would go well for a double barrel surname!

The only reason I chose the Mya spelling was so no one would be able to get pronunciation confused lol

I love charlotte and all the nn’s it can have but where I stay it will be pronounced very slang 😞

I wouldn’t know how to pronounce Mya. I’d assume M’ya - a bit like meow - and would guess it was foreign.

I know sisters Ivy and Ava which is a lovely combo

Orla?
Ava and Evie is variations on the same name, Ivy and Ava seem a bit samey
Isabella is too long but could be Bella

Love a few of your suggestions but unfortunately they are already in the family 😞 on my side and partners there are almost all girls and plenty of them lol so it makes it so difficult.
Georgia is my fav at the miniute. Do you get yours shortened often?

Yes, I have been called George or Georgie by my family for my whole life 😅

People outside my family rarely shorten it though :)
