Girls name suggestions needed please.

[Phoenix]

We don't know what we're having yet but really don't love any girls names.

We both liked Morgan. Dh still really wants it but i've gone off it. Was never really sure about it anyway because of the unisex thing

Already have a ds called Lewis. Have a long surname, 3 syllables, beginning with C.

Help me at least make a list. Not that dh will probably like anything that i like

whar about Morven? Its similar, goes nicely with Lewis and is a girls name.

FWIW I have 3 DD and my third has a name more commonly used for a boy and it suits her right down to the ground so if thats what you want just use it

are you scottish with a Lewis? are you looking for something else Scottish or not bothered? you could have Eiligh, Isla, Iona, Skye, Mhairi or Muiranne etc

what boys names have you picked so we can get a feel for the kind of names you like

Fiona? Orla?

Hi, sorry i got caught up in the ghost story thread.

We kind of settled on Rhys Joseph for a boy but i'm really liking Noah as well now although dh isn't as keen it.

No we're not Scottish just liked Lewis . We're English so not sure about Rhys (Welsh) but don't like the Reece spelling

Megan?

Megan was on the list if ds has been a girl but i hate Meg and it would get shortened to that by someone.

My name can be shortened but my mum was so admant when I was young that I was not to be called it, that nobody ever did
Ocassionly people ask me do I get called it, I just say no
Actually haven't been asked for a long time

Phoenix my dneice is Megan and its NEVER been shortened, not even by her friends

I wouldn't worry about not being welsh, my DD3, as I've already mentioned, is called Dylan which is not only more commonly used for boys but its also welsh

is there anything you like but wouldn't use? you haven't really given up a huge amount to go on!

Ok some i like are

Erin
Eden
Matilda (Tilly) - Dh really doesn't like.
Amelia (Mia)
Mia
Maya
Isabelle (Izzy)
Imogen
Alanna
Isla
Thea
Neve

Think some of them are too long to go with long surname.

Dh is been a PITA because he won't really give any opinions on any names i suggest (could be because he was set on Morgan)

I've got my 20wk scan a week on Wednesday and we are planning on finding out the sex so then we'll know if we actually need a girls name or not

Amelia is really growing on me but dh is still on hmmm. Our niece is called Millie so we couldn't shorten it to that, that's why i think Mia as a shortening.

I'll trot out my usual list:

Tamsin
Rosanne
Rhiannon
Meryl
Meredith
Helen(a)
Corinna

I like Thea too, and Clea.

My favourites:

Orla (my dd)
Clementine
Skye
Cleo
Kitty

Do any of those appeal?

kitsmummy you and I have very similar taste but DH would not budge and inch on Clementine, Cleo or kitty

we now have a Cordelia

these are my favourites but may be too tradional for you

Lucy
Olivia
Sophie
Chloe
Emma
Victoria
Leah
Laura

Have you thought about:
erin
Caitlyn
Eliza
Abigail
Kelsey
Lara / Cara
Kate

BlueChampagne - We like Rhiannon but it's too long and surname ends with 'son' so it doesn't sound right.

Kitsmummy - I only like Skye from your list but dh doesn't.

Peppapig - Lucy, Leah, Laura, Lara close to ds' name/same initial. Sophie too popular and dh doesn't like it. Already have 2 Emmas in the family. Friend has Chloe. Cousins Abby and Kelsie. Erin already on my list.

God this is hard. Will be much easier if the baby is a boy

Olwen

dizzydixie, that's the same as my DH, hence why we ended up with Orla!

kitsmummy time we stood up for ourselves!!!

Phoenix - if you like Rhiannon what about Rhian as a shorter alternative? or sian, thats pretty

Ellis is nice
Arwyn
lyra

Yes dizzy i like Rhian (can't remember if dh did or not) but wasn't sure if it was a 'real' name

its welsh meaning Great Queen

sorry forgot to think about ds name last time!

lewis and sarah
lewis and anna
lewis and Kate
lewis and Alicia/alice
lewis and harriet
Lewis and grace

less traditional

lewis and May

My god, has someone got some time on their hands

Still nothing you like? There must be something in that lot!!

There are plenty of names i like but not that i love iykwim.

Dh is stuck on Morgan still and still won't discuss names. I do like Morgan too, it's just the unisex thing that i'm not sure of.

Dh says he will discuss it when we know what sex the baby is. 1wk til the scan .

My dd is Megan, and no-one has shortened it. I tend to think if you constantly use the full name, then that is what sticks. As she gets older and introduces herself as Megan, then that's what people will call her. While at school, If kids decided to call her Meg, I'd just think, that's not bad considering what kids can call you!!!
