Help needed .... to find a girl's name I like!!!!!

[Ghosty]

Hello everyone ......
I need help .... with 10 weeks to go in this pregnancy I am beginning to think of names for our baby ... and am stuck!!!!
DH and I are pretty much at one with a boy's name that we both like (managed to dissuade DH from Bert and Frank ) so there is no problem there but when it comes to a girl's name we are in serious trouble and if we have a girl I can just see that she won't have a name for months ... bit like Edward and Sophie!!!

What I am after is some suggestions .... I hate baby naming books ... I get to C and fall asleep ... I never get past F!

We are looking for a name that goes with DS's name ... but I really don't want to post DS's name here so that is not really helpful ... sorry
Suffice it to say that his name is a very traditional English name (can think of a few kings that were named this ... not Henry, James or William) .... so I am after a traditional English girl's name ... that isn't too poncy or posh ... something pretty. My favourite girl's name is Rose/Rosie but a very close friend of mine had a baby last month and called her that so DH doesn't think we can have that ....
So ... sorry for the rambling post .... let's have it girls .... I need loads of suggestions!!!
Any ideas for me to start working on .... ????????

What a lovely dilemma to have!

Isobel/Isabel, Leonie, Georgia, Catherine (Kate), Hannah

I've was convinced my ds1 was a girl and had loads lined up......here goes. Won't be offended if you don't like them.....

Joy,Eva,Eve,Nancy,Catherine,Martha,Maddy,Libby,Maggie,Grace.

Think Grace was the favourite.

All the best.

Ella
Lucy
Ruby
Holly (although perhaps not with it being so close to Christmas)
Emily
Hannah
Anna
Imogen

Ummmmm...

was going to use Isobel for a dughter then Anna - no lieklihood of either - 3 boys later

Georgia, Georgina. Chloe.

Elizabeth, Anne, Josephine, Victoria, Alice, Jane, Rosemary, Amy, Kathleen, Dora, Caroline, Amelia, Sarah, Louise, Lucy, Emily.

I love Freya too and Emma, Lara, Josie, Mia, Sara, Katie, Ella or Ellie. Hope you find a name you love soon.

Names on our 'girls' list are
Faith, Madeleine, Lilian, Flora
Where I live Eleanor/Ellen/Ellie/Isabelle/Poppy are very commonly used.

Helen, Jennifer, Daisy, Millie.

Elsa, Eleanor, Susie, Della, Haley, Hermione

Keep going ladies ... you are all doing a grand job! It is just what we need rather than trawling through name books which have names like Hepzibah in them ....
Thanks a million ...

My favourites so far are (still) Rosie, Alice, Grace ... but I am still open to anything!

Mind you ... having just read Pie's thread on names in America I might just go for Lillette ....

My niece - Madeleine Grace

HGood think its not he other way around as she is not graceful

Anna Kate was the proposal

Hazel, Evelyn, Tess, Judith, Lucinda, Mary, Martha, Fern, Susan, Abigail, Nicola, Alexandra, Constance, Cybil, Winifred, Millicent, Amelia, Amanda.

My next one is a boy - no name yet! If it was a girl I had planned to call her Scarlett

In addition to dd's which has already been listed I liked :- Emily, Emilia, Eloise, Helena , Elinor, Kathryn, Sophie, Charlotte, Laura. Also it depends what sounds right with your surname. i know what you mean about not wanting to have same name as your friend but you could still have it as a second name.

Amber, Courtney, jessica, Rebecca, Carly, Samantha, Brook, Jade, Selina

DOnt do amber or courtney (sorry anyone)

Naughty girl alert(

My favourite girl's names at the moment are Freya, Cerys and Skye (perhaps not very traditional). Out of the names posted I love Scarlett and Sophie.

Ghosty we wanted a trad girls name that wasn't used by all and sundry and called dd Louisa.

Katrina, Heather, Stephanie, Geraldine, Dawn, Lynne, Christina.

Erica, Ursula, Ellen, Melissa.

Basically I would be tempted to post 'top 50 baby names' in your search engine which should take you to a list of the top 50 names for both girls and boys - and then avoid anything in the top 50 (sadly the list contains some rather nice names though).

I quite like Charlotte - but haven't checked whether or not its a top 50 one!

Just checked - Charlotte is number 7 - damn!
