Baby name inspo…

[GutsyHamster]

I’m currently 7 months pregnant with my first, a girl, and feel no closer to picking a name so starting to panic a little!

I’d love some inspo and suggestions!

I love old fashioned names that can then be shortened or with smaller nicknames for when they’re little but also love some more ‘hippie’/nature based names. I’ve got a fairly standard nickname ending with ‘son’ (think Johnson etc) and would love a middle name too. Current short list is:

Florence (Flo, Flossie, Florrie)
Jemima (Jem, Mim)
Elodie (Ellie, Didi)
Violet (V, Lettie)
Georgina (Gigi)
Emmeline (Emmie)
Amelia (Lia, Milly)
Alma
Olive
Hallie
Tessa

Any suggestions or help narrowing it down would be amazing!!

Hi and Congratulations 😊

My list was a little bit like yours first time round and I ended up with a Bethany (happy with Beth, Betty, Ani) which we still love and seems to have good balance where people know it but it's not super common.

There's a who 'Baby names' forum on here where you migth get more response/ insipiration too.

Sorrel
Bryony
Tansy
Aster
Viola
Rowan
Therese (Tess)
Flora/Fleur
Willow
Rosemary

Ah thank you, I’ll try there!

that’s a really lovely name :)

I love Tansy and Flora! Both are on my longer ‘short’ list! I’m just not sure if they’re versatile enough, or if that’s something I even need to worry about!!

My first thought for that criteria is Josephine (Josie) ☺️

Clementine (Clem)
Beatrix (Bea; Trixie)
Persephone (Sefi?)

I have a Sydney who we call Syd
