Expecting our third girl and I have exhausted my supply of girl names. My DH is the biggest whatsit when it comes to name selection. The only name he has ever suggested was over five years ago now when I was pg with DD1 when he said he liked Alexandra, shortened to Alex. My all time girl favourite is Charlotte, which he has always vetoed.
Fast forward to a few weeks ago I suggested to him Alexandra Charlotte thinking I was conceding and giving him the name that I like, but he really wanted. His response "I'm not sure I really like Alexandra or Alex anymore"
So, I need some suggestions that I haven't come up with yet to throw at him. I like traditional and TBH, it would have to be something that really sat well with me for me to consider something that wasn't traditional but I'm open to suggestions. Our surname throws a serious spanner in the works - its Loo. Yes, you can all have a good chuckle. Trust me. I've heard ALL the jokes Needless to say though, it makes name selection that bit harder cos you don't want to burden the poor little thing with a future of being called Me-a Loo, no matter how much I love the name Mia! DDs are Isabelle and Elena.
Short of reverting to my maiden name and threatening my DH with castration if he rejects any more names, any suggestions? Thanks lovelies
I have to ponder some names for you, our names always have come easily without pouring over books and having endless conversations about it, luckily!! When I was reading your post the name Katie came to me.... I will be back with some others x
I was going to suggest Katie as well! My DD is Katherine, we like traditional names as well. Others on our list were:
Sophie
Emily/ Emma
Laura (but maybe too much alliteration with the surname)
Julia
Madeleine
Congrats on your third little princess!! If your DH has been keen on Alexandra/Alex previously, would he consider Alexis? Not sure if it's too un-traditional for you, but I reckon it suits your other girl's names.
Hi gorgeous! I'm traditional with names too so here is my list that we had incase DS2 was a girl:
- Heidi
- Sophie
- Emily
- Emma
- Phoebe
I'm feeling for you on the name battle. I'm sure you can remember complaining about DH trying to name all of ours, LOL!!
Congratulations on another little girl . I have 5 girls and could quite happily name at least another 2 or 3 girls, its boys i have trouble naming.
My girls are Ebonee, Sapphire, Briella, Serenitee, Chardonnay, probably not traditional enough for your but im putting them out there . Their middle names are Grace, Oriaan, Vienna, Annaliese, Olivia, Zayvia, Janaye.
Another name i love that is traditional is Elise, I love Charlotte to, what about Chanel? Similar to Charlotte, so is Chardonnay
