help help need girls name have difficult restrictions !

[girlsallaround]

haven't found one name that we like for dd3 (due nov)

1. it has to sound the same in about 3 different languages (family and places we live) (kate and jane or charlotte don't work for example)

1. not looking for anything too cute like polly, millie, maisie etc

1. would like something that is not overly popular, but not like talulah or niamh

helen
helena

what 3 languages?

What about Ella or Lucy would they work?

Congratulations BTW .

Maria
Alicia
Anna
Elaine/Elena/Eliana

which languages?

thanks

helena - i like it and my dd1's name is a version of helena (therefore eliana/elena etc also cant work)

ella - also like it but dd2 is Emma

i do like Alicia but husband does not

Anna - in my husband's native tongue it means 'where?'

and one more restriction i have - can't have a religious name (like maria or natalia)

Petra

Isabella

Annabel

Sophia

Beatrice

Elizabeth/Eliza/Lizbet/Liza

Alexandra / Alexia / Alexa / Alexis

Rita

where is your dh from - is there a name in his language which you like?

I think you need one syllable names - fewer syllables to mispronounce.

elle
bea
kate
ann
tess
rose
eve
claire?

How about one of the many versions of Catherine.g. Katarina,Katya,Kazia,Katrin

Juliette?

claire is a lovely name

call her claire

Anne?

Felicity?

i like the versions of alexandra, my dh likes 'alex' which is the version i don't particularly fancy

my dh is from israel and i don't like a single name from there! except maya, which is my name

claire doesn't really work in israel or French

Anya/ Anja

Freya/ Freja

Sonya/ Sonja

etc etc ad infinitum

Hebrew names rock!

Dalia
Yasmin
Aleah
Hannah
Leora

Had a quick google for Israeli names-thought Ariella, Tamar, Eva and Yasmin were nice

Claudine
Claudia
Claudette?

Aviva is a lovely Hebrew name - dh and I considered it for dd1. Still love it.
Noa is another, and I think that would 'translate' well into French and English pronunciations - you could adapt it a little as well. I have an Israeli friend named Carmel, also appropriate for French/English. What about Eva or Ava or variations like Evelyn and Avaline?

If you both like Alexandra, you can use it and then make a mutual decision not to abbreviate it to Alex.

Amy?

Leonie
Hannah
Rachel
Evie
Edie (from edith)
Miriam
