Baby Names

[Definitelyme]

I find girls names much easier than boys.

Emma
Olivia
Amelia
Charlotte
Freya
Esther
Francesca
Bella
Alexandra
Hannah
Hallie

Jude
Jack
Oliver
Thomas
Jesse

Two of my three kids’ names are on there and some which have been close runners!

We are hoping for baby no4. For a girl it will most likely be Lucy. There are a lot of girls names we like but not necessarily love.

Boys names are SO difficult our last name is short and difficult to match with for boys names we find.

I have an Arabella and Arthur but she goes by Bella . Other names I considered and still love are Arlo, Sofia, India, Marley, Ada and Esmae.

 

[Meh]

I’m child free (by choice!) and have no plans to have children. That being said two names I have always adored:-

Violet
Thalia

Our first niece has been born this year named Violet which is beautiful. Definitely now a very popular choice.
Now to work on some other family member to use Thalia

Me and my partner only had 3 names on our list as we knew we were having a girl.
We both liked layla but we thought it was too common and I loved lyla but it sounds too similar to liar . We both have L names and wanted our children to be the same but it would’ve been too hard for a boy in the future if we ever had one. In the end my boyfriend chose her name and he went with isla which is very similar to lyla. We don’t know anyone with the name even though it’s currently really popular.

I love isla but someone at work called their baby it just before I gave birth.

My daughters got a friend called Layla, shes a little tit

We really liked Wren for a girl when I was pregnant but we had a boy. We still like it though for future children but I'm worried it's a bit out there:/

I also really love Violet for a girl but my partner hated it.

 

[JustHereForTheAgriculture]

I’ve always liked Alexa for a girl. Amazon’s really fecked that up for me now.

 

[Dex]

I love the name’s
•meadow
•harper
•brielle
•savannah
•emersyn

I don’t think I will ever use the name meadow I think it’s a beautiful name but maybe a bit out there

I absolutely love the name Meadow but my husband says people will just think we chose it because of the Sopranos.

Ive also always loved the name Bridget but I’m now married and my surname is Jones so I just couldn’t

Ooh I'm enjoying this thread! I've not long had a baby girl so I'm reading through whilst doing a night feed, wishing I'd seen it for some ideas before having her I have my baby girl and a toddler son, I won't reveal their names here but they're pretty traditional and popular overall but I liked and chose them because I don't personally know anyone with their names.

Names I liked but didn't use (but might in the future, I'd love a 3rd baby eventually!) :
Matilda
Phoebe
Neve
Eliza
Nelle

Zachary
Isaac
Sonny
Jude
Luca

I don't like more modern names that sound a bit 'chavvy', like Jayden, Ashton, Nevaeh, Bailey, Payton - apologies to anyone who has chosen those names

 

[Clappincoco]

For a girl I like the name Tara and for a boy I like the name Hunter there’s a few others that I like to,but they would deffo be my first choice if I was to get pregnant soon

I love the name Tara. Husband's brother has a Cara though and thought it might be a bit weird. I've got Ellen and Joseph. I'm not a fan of double barrel names or Celtic spellings.

Boy:
Caleb
Christian

Girl:
Deborah (but not Debbie)
Christine
Anna
Clara

Anna and Clara were at the top of my list for a baby girl, I ended up going with Victoria, but storing them away for any future babies!

I love the name Heidi. I had my baby girl 4 weeks ago and wanted to call her Heidi.. I let other peoples negative opinions on it get to me so didnt use that name and now wish I did

 

[Lillymackenzie99000777]

I heard the name Rivers today for a girl I really like it

I used to love Violet for a girl but then it just made me think of Violent and now I'm not so sure.

It makes me think of Willy Wonka, you're turning violet, Violet! Nice name though.

We have just been approved for adoption of a little girl who will already be two months old by the time we have her home with us, and while I respect that she's been given a name it's a very traditional Polynesian name from the island she was born on, and would be seen as EXTREMELY quirky here. I like the name nova, but my wife can't agree on anything haha. Any ideas would be great
