Nina

Moreteaandchocolate · 17/10/2025 21:38

Lovely list! Zoe is my favourite 🤩 I also really like Daisy, Sylvie and Nina. My least favourite is Rowan as I only know boys called Rowan.

Firebird83 · 17/10/2025 21:59

Frida, definitely! I know a little toddler Frida.

BreadstickBurglar · 17/10/2025 22:00

Robin, Nina or Zoe

ladygindiva · 17/10/2025 22:19

Your list is very similar to mine,and one of my DDS names is on there. Fwiw I'm always sad I didn't use Romy, even though Boris has spoiled it now.

Belindabelle · 17/10/2025 22:35

I never come on these threads, and yet here I am. My absolute favorite girls name is on your list. I have two boys who are 27 and 20. Had either of them been girls I would have named them Rowan. I loved the name then and I love it still.

Myfridgeiscool · 17/10/2025 22:40

Sylvie. A happy go lucky name.

Nursemumma92 · 17/10/2025 22:44

Love Daisy, Sylvie and Nina

user1492757084 · 18/10/2025 09:56

Zoe is my fave.

Rowena

Sheila

This is a nice list. The names sound fresh, sweet, simple and pretty.

I really like Frida.

Other suggestions:

Sara
Vita
Noa
Cleo
Laurel

Elephantangel1991 · 18/10/2025 10:51

Lots of nice names, my favourites are Nina and Zoe.

Pemba · 18/10/2025 19:50

I agree, Zoe or Nina, lovely and sophisticated.

I have a soft spot for Daisy, but I suppose it could be a seen as a bit cutesy.

Quite like Rowan (nicer on a girl imo) and Sylvie is pretty, but Sylvia would be better.

Thewalrusandthecarpenter · 18/10/2025 19:54

Daisy

17caterpillars1mouse · 18/10/2025 21:10

Daisy - duck, oopsie daisy - I always think its sounds a bit juvenile and twee

Sylvie - pretty

Robyn/ Robin - ive met so many baby Robyn / Robins recently both boys and girls

Rowan - lovely but i much prefer it for a boy and all the ones ive met recently are boys

Romy - not a fan, but the only one i know is a boy

Zoe - lovely and underused

Frida - not a fan

Nina - not a fan

Bishopstail · 18/10/2025 21:15

I like Robyn, Nina, Sylvie.

LasVegass · 18/10/2025 21:18

Love Sylvie/Sylvia, Daisy and Nina.

user2848502016 · 18/10/2025 21:21

Sylvie or Rowan

ekk100 · 18/10/2025 21:21

Be aware Rowan is pronounced differently in different parts of the UK. In England it is like 'row your boat', in Scotland like 'have a row/argument'. Scots often mistake it for Rohan.

fairycupcakes · 18/10/2025 21:21

Love Sylvie!

TappyGilmore · 18/10/2025 21:28

I know children with all of those names, and it’s hard not to have the child influence my view of the name! Except Robyn, I don’t know any child Robyns, I know a few aged about 50-60 and consider it quite dated so wouldn’t use that. I don’t like Frida either.

Zoe is my favourite, I wanted to use that for DD but didn’t because my cousin had used it for his daughter who is a little older. Rowan or Romy would probably be my other picks from the list.

Theextraordinaryisintheordinary · 18/10/2025 21:31

Sylvie. Love a French name. Elodie gorgeous too. I saw a beautiful piece of art today by an artist called Etel. Loved it.

Theextraordinaryisintheordinary · 18/10/2025 21:32

Fleur?

LivingTheDreamish · 18/10/2025 21:46

Zoe or Daisy.

Sleepnplay · 18/10/2025 21:47

Great list! 3 of your names were on my shortlist for dd- I really love Rowan for a girl, and also really like Nina and Zoe.
