Baby girl names!

[peachsmama]

Since I know we all like to talk names, throw some at me! A likes normal, boring names... so finding anything he likes is HARD! I want something different and uncommon. Not weird spellings or made up or "unique" but like I was the only Abby in my high school. Its not weird or anything but just not common. I want something that will stand out.

Middle name is most likely Claire. Unless we fall in love with a name and it doesn't work. We also like Joy.

My front runner right now is Marley. A's is Mallory.

I think most know, but last name is rain with a P instead of an R.

He's vetoed A LOT! Please don't take offense from him shutting down literally everything.... but I need fresh ideas. He's driving me nuts.

[flamingo]

I love Claire!

Marley is NMS, I can’t help but think of the dog. Sorry 😊 I also think it’s a bit trendy, and much cuter on a kid than an adult. I guess I’m with your H, I actually like Mallory of the 2.

Meredith is a name I’ve always thought was pretty. It’s a bit different but still classic. Sounds good with Claire, too.

[mwhip]

Since you like M names, I'll just throw out Michelle. Because it's awesome.

I love Meredith. But he vetoed because I watch Greys Anatomy and thats the main characters name.

I really liked Greta but I didn’t want to have all G names. I will think about it and make some other suggestions for you. Wasn’t the other name that you liked last time April?

No, any letter is fine.

Yes. But it's not sticking this time.

[slenle]

What about Claire as a first name? I love Claire!

Grace, Jillian, Lillian (lily), Vivian (my fave, would have been H's name)

Lol... I just realized most of those are N's friends names.

I typed Greta too, but then thought it might not be popular. I love it!

Agree with all of this.

[kim22]

I’d have to go with Mallory because that is DD’s name. I picked it because I had similar criteria of I didn’t want there to be lots of other girls with the name (growing up Kimberly in the 80’s, I always had my last initial used) but I wanted people to know how to pronounce her name also.

[kim22]

T and C may have been Brielle if they were girls.

[kim22]

I also love Andrea but we live in a high Spanish speaking area so it never would have been pronounced the way I intended it to be- Ann Dree Ah, it would have been Un drey yah.

Paisley
Harper
Scarlett
Lorelei
Cecily
Sienna
Maeve
Melody
Serenity
Magnolia (Maggie)

[cagoldi]

Voice of dissent on Greta, personally not a fan.

[peachsmama]

Molly and Natalie are standing out to me so far.

You can probably sell Natalie to A. DD has a teammate named Natalie and they never know which one of them the coach is calling when he says Mallory or Natalie.

[vino]

I like Claire as a middle name or first. Also, Team A on the Mallory, I like it!

I'll add Lauren and Sarah to the lists.

....I just said M, J and Lauren out loud and LOVE them together

[tgrimes]

I really like Mallory.

I don't dislike Mallory. I'm actually the obe that first suggested it to him. But I was so stuck on Marley. But I don't see it as trendy, so if other people are reading it that way I dont want that. He does like Natalie.

[nam2013]

I love Hazel, Maeve and Emmi (Emily).

[guster]

Oh, I was waiting for this!
I really like Mallory. I think it’s such a pretty name. I also think the syllables go nicely with the middle and last names.

Do you like names that have the potential for shortened nicknames?

I prefer old lady names the most. There’s kind of a classic with an edge feeling to them.

[guster]

Josie‘s class is full of little girls with all kinds of unique names:
Brinley, Hadley, Reina, Jaylyn, Kaija, & Lucy.
PDQ, I think.

That’s my best friend’s name. She is adamant against the Un Drey Yah. Her nickname is Ange which feels oddly derived from Andrea.
