We've picked a boy's name, but stuck for a girl's name.

What do you think of these:
Blair
Liberty
Libbi
Izzabella
Izzabelle
Luca

Loinnir?

Libby short for Elizabeth is my favourite from your list.

Izzabella? NO. It is still Issabella no matter how you spell it.

I prefer Isabel tbh.

I knew a Liberty as a child whose sister was called Amity. Do you like that?

Otherwise, I agree with everyone else - spell Isabel / Isabella/ Isobel properly and make Izzy a nickname.

Luca and Blair are boys' names.

How about Louisa, Lucia, Lucinda, Lucy, Luisa, Elisa, Elise.

Lara

Lani ( I don't approve of this one due to the i ending, but is a girl in dds class, apparently Hawaiian or something, pronouced Larney)

Suke like in the nursery rhyme? I've never heard of a RL person called that.

Lola's quite soft and nice but not quite nice enough.

myredcardigan · 07/12/2008 22:58

Lol. I was at school with a Suke. We all called her Pukey Suke!
