I'm booked in for my c section in 15 days time and we still haven't got a name for baby girl!

We're quite liking names that start with an A, but nothing feels like the one.

Please just throw all of your favourite A names my way and I'll make a list to show OH 😅

Thanks in advance!

I’m assuming you’ve already been through the simple, popular classics like Anna, Alice, Amelia etc

Imo Antonia is beautifully elegant, not super popular but well known enough for everyone to pronounce and spell, and has lots of nice nn options if she wants (Annie, Anya, Nina, Nia).

Or if you want more unusual, I’ve always thought Ancient Greek Alethea was very pretty, with a lovely meaning and mythological links.

Asta - central character in a book I loved based in Iceland
Adelaide - my paternal grandmother's name

Not Amelia, OP. Mealy is a vile sound and the medical definition means 'absence of limbs.'

I did NOT know this!! Why are people calling their kids Amelia?!
