Need a name for baby girl!
| Mon, 04-25-2005 - 4:53pm |
I need a name for my daughter. I want something that isn't in the top 10 but isn't too too weird, kwim?
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the name Gwen but DH doesn't. :( I also love the name Mariah but it just seems too common.
I want a name that I will instantly love like I did with my son, Koby. Here are a few names that are 'okay'
Olivia, Kate, Isabella, McKenna.... that's all I can think of. Any help would be appreciated!!! :)


My favorite, not super popular, girl names are:
Lila
Maya
Sabrina
Sadie
Noelle
Delaney
Giselle (love w/ nn Gigi)
Lucy
Bridget
Willa
Piper
Daphne
Fiona
Eliza
Nora (love this as a nn for Eleanor, but that seems too formal next to Koby)
Greta
Stella
since you liked Kyen for a boy, how about Kyndle (pronounced KIN-dle as in next-of-kin) - the Y gives it a feminine look, a nice alternative to Kendall, which I see as male only, although people use it for girls
I have to agree with hubby on Gwen, it's just really outdated. seems like most people with that name are in the 40s through 60s, maybe a few younger than that, but not many.
here are other names I like that fit your criteria of not in the top 10 but not weird, names you hear and know of but was never a trendy run on them
Aubrey, Amber, Alyssa, Ariel, Brenna, Cara, Corinne, Delaney, Dannah, Erica, Elise/Elyse, Heidi, Hilary, Jocelyn, Jillian, Janna, Johanna, Kyndle, Kara, Kelsey, Larissa or Larisa, Marissa, Mallory, Mackenzie, Maura/Moira, Molly, Natasha, Nina, Paige, Piper, Rayna, Reegan or Raegan, Rhiannon, Sabrina, Sienna, Sierra, Samara, Torri, Teegan or Taegan, Tonya, Tara, Tasha, Whitney.
good luck
Your daughter is due on my son's 14th birthday!
I would suggest the following names:
Cecilia
Maureen
Katherine
Rebecca
Evelyn
Patrice
Molly/Mollie
Helen
Marian
Sadie
Nena/Nina
