Help with girl names
| Sun, 06-10-2007 - 5:52pm |
I’m looking for names that are unique, classic/ non-trendy. Currently I’m in love with: Genevieve, Felicity, Talulla, Romilly and Cordelia, but I’d like some suggestions for girl names that are less, well, frilly, for lack of a better word.
Thanks-
Annie

I'm trying for distinctly feminine and unusual, but a little less lacy than your list. I love your names, btw. How about:
Leona
Anthea
Claudia
Daphne
Adele
Mabel
Virginia
Alice
Rhea
Annette
Tessa
Gretl/Greta
Laurel
Antonia
Linnea
Geneva
Corinne
Stella
Sylvia
Lyra
Willa
Winona
Cassia
Hazel
Marta
Delilah
Holly
Audra
Adelaide
Anything jumping out at you?
I see what you mean. Those names are GORGEOUS, but a tad frilly. How about using a nn to shorten it up?
Genevieve- Eve, Evie, Genna, Gen, Gigi
Felicity- Fliss, Flicka, Faye, Lissa, Lissy, Liss, Fifi
Talulla- Lula, Lulu, Tally
Romilly- Romy, Rom
Cordelia- Cora, Cory, Delia, Lia
Other names under the same style that are less frilly are:
Hazel
Iris
Ivy
Imogen
Dahlia
Cora
Ada
Scarlett
Eve
Maren
Carys
Lola
Stella
Blythe
Shea

Hmmm ... less "frilly" alternatives to Genevieve, Felicity, Talulla, Romilly and Cordelia (all of which I love, btw ):
Hope a few of those are on the right track. LOL

All of those are appealing. Generally, for me, more than two syllables adds to the frill factor.
What about-
Corliss
Thea
Gemma
Romy
Lois
Colette (long o- sound, not coll)
Ivy
Adele
Vera
Enid
Esther
Gwen
Lottchen
Jessa
Inga
Annette
