    Question Help with baby girl names..

    hi everyone.
    i only just recently joined this forum and i am loving it..
    was wondering if anyone could give me some ideas for girl names..
    my problem is i have 15 years difference with my last child.. so baby names havent been a huge thought in my mind. now with baby 3 on the way (huge surprise ) i am stuck trying to work out girl names..
    i havent found out if it is a boy or girl yet.. but i have a strong feeling it is a girl..
    i knew with both my last two.. and was spot on..
    i have a daughter named charlene daryl and a son named cody david
    i really want a uncommon name..
    my daughter charlene has always been the only charlene in school etc..
    she has never even met another charlene..
    i would love some unusual , yet sweet names.. sigh i know i am asking for a bit..
    but i know there is so many ladies on here with so much knowledge..

    thanks..

    Hi Jo...welcome!!

    Well I am a little biased...my little girl is Tess Alice. They were both on my list so went with both in the end.
    I also like Namila (DH thought too unsual) as I liked one of the presenters of 3RRR radio and that was her name
    Congratulations on your little surprise.

    hi heather..
    awww i just love your daughters names... so sweet...
    namila is very different..

    i am finding it hard with this pregnancy to work out names..lol
    my first child.. charlene was so easy i had so many names..
    danielle
    jessica
    were other choices..
    but i just adored charlene (my mums name too)
    if i have a boy i just love Dexter ppl think i am strange because of the tv show.. but i love it..
    i know when i find the right name i will just go AHhhhhhhh thats it!!!

    Help with baby girl names..

    Congrats on your pregnancy!

    One of my favourite girl names is Sage. It's fairly unusual but I've heard it a few times recently.

    I also like Saskia and Audrey.

    Good luck!

    Alannah
    Amber
    Elka
    Jenna
    Isabeau
    Madeline
    Rhiannon
    Saskia

    I have a unusual name its Marijke which is pronounced (Mar-ray-ka) my sisters name is Bronte which is a beautiful name and the other is Rebekah which is just a twist on the original. Hope any of those help.

    Audrey is our choice should we have a girl next though I'm starting to wonder if it's becoming a little too popular for my tastes... And I really love Rosalie but it's a Twilight character, argh!

    I love Dexter too!

    I like Jemima, and I saw an Esmerelda on another thread. Penelope? Athene?
