We just can’t find a name we agree on 🤦‍♀️
our original name list:
Cass/Cassie
Juno
Nova
Maya
Remi
Kaia
Kali/Callie
Tess
Wren (ruled out as too popular)

We struggled with the name game while I was pregnant but were sort of half decided on thinking she’d be a Cass or a Kali but neither of them are settling well on her. OH LOVES Shea but only wants to spell it Che which is a hard no from me so back to the drawing board. I love Juno but he’s vetoing. We’ve been round and round in circles for what feels like forever. Please help, mumsnet hive mind! Open to any and all suggestions 🙏

Dear Lord, why provide OP with a laundry list of different names? Surely, that will just further muddy the water?

@LotsOfSmallThings has a list of lovely names. Why not combine them?
ie Cassandra Remi?
You can shorten to Cass as a nn.
Cassandra is classic and the shorter names on the list go nicely as 2nd names, or even two middle names:
Cassandra Juno Wren?

Good luck. 🩷

Have you tried ChatGBT? Not joking!

Asha?

Pranksters · 26/11/2025 01:58

Definitely don’t choose Maya, Ava or Ivy if you don’t want popular. There are bloody loads of them! I thought every girl I knew was called Ava at one point…

Angelil · 26/11/2025 02:46

One of my friends has a daughter called Novi; would you consider that?

Nika is a good name too.

Shea is the fat from an African tree. Che is used in South America and means something like 'mate' or 'friend'.

What about Shia?

I do like Tess. She does look a little like one I knew, who looked very French and was smart and chic, very clever and utterly a wizz at languages.
