Baby girl names… peach?

[PollyD123]

I’m due in a few weeks with a baby girl and struggling to find a name. I’ve swapped it constantly throughout the months and just don’t like anything. I was recently set on Lena but have realised how common it actually is, which puts me off a little bit. I recently heard the name peach and absolutely love it but after reading a lot of forums people seem to think it’s silly? I know it doesn’t matter what other people think but I don’t know if it’s too out there?! Thoughts?

Sounds to me more like a term of endearment than an actual name.

I’ve done nothing but take it easy. I think the ones that need to take it easy are the ones saying a child is being neglected because of a name 😂

Yeah you are totally right. Funnily enough I have kids in school and don’t know a Jayden or Kayden. May be geographical too as people can hear a name and then think that’s nice and use it.

I think peach is a nickname I actually know a girl who has a different name but nicknamed peach I'd go for something else that's my opinion on it though

Absolutely! The world would be a boring place if everyone liked the same

Ok so why did your OP say 'I don’t know if it’s too out there?! Thoughts?' Do you want other people's input or not?

Instantly makes me think of lovelypeaches

For the love of god, no 🫣

How about the name Vida? We considered it for our DD but ended up preferring something else

Peach 😂

Lena or Marlena sounds way better than Peach!

No

I’ve never met a baby Lena. Where are you op?

Stripper name

As you say, your dd being loved etc is the most important thing. It isn't important to give your child a super rare name. I know you feel people on here are being mean, but they are a representation of how society might react when your dd says her name. You might like it, but she needs to live with it for the next 80 years. I wouldn't burden her with that.
Lena is a lovely name, and not too common. If you feel it may be too much 'of its time' then Elena is pretty and more timeless, and goes with the Spanish surnames. Also more options for nicknames.

How about:

Mila
Lila
Lara
Lilly
Lucia
Leah

instead?

Have you only chosen 2 names? Neither are great but that only my opinion

Go to your front door and shout Peach as if you are calling her in from playing and see how you feel when doing it. If you feel fine then it is probably ok. If you feel silly it’s a sign not to do it.

Of all the beautiful names out there, you're thinking about naming your child after a furry fruit that looks like an arse???

So sick of repeating myself. Yes, I wanted opinions but didn’t realise the amount of bitchy vicious comments I would get. I welcome different opinions but do not welcome pure nastiness which a lot of these replies have been.

People have different ideas of the word beautiful. What one person finds beautiful another may not. If people want to sexualise a peach well that’s on them, I find that weird myself, not the name.

See how easy it is to give an opinion and not be spiteful? Other users may want to take some lessons.

I did actually think of this!

Yes it’s just made me realise how spiteful people are, I’m quite shocked at some of the replies but as you say, these people do actually exist.

The uk. There is 5 at my nephews school and my partner knows a few. I suppose I’m never going to get a completely unique name

I think Marlena is vile 🤷🏼‍♀️ but that’s my opinion
