    Question Stuck for girls names

    Ok so we've pretty much decided on a boys name
    Isaac Neil (DP & FIL's middle name so decided to follow on with the tradition) last name will be Weston. WDYT??

    We are really stuck for girls names though. We just can't agree. The only name we really agree on is
    Annika.

    Aside from the fact that it doesn't sound quite right with Weston (although after saying it a few times it starts to) and it's also the name of a "sort of" friend's 3 yo DSD. Is it ok to use it? or would it be classified as stealing it or copying?

    What other girls names can you suggest?

    Its not stealing unless the name is subject to copyright

    I'd use it if its the only one you guys agree on.

    Or you can steal Miss M's name - I don't mind

    I think Annika's a lovely name. I'm sure the people you'll be 'stealing' from 'stole' it from someone before them.

    I think it's a gorgeous name and don't worry about the 'stealing' thing - that's common with babies names

    Here are a few off our list if you're interested:

    Isobel (currently our number one)
    Imogen
    Claudia
    Ava
    Olivia
    Sophie
    Jazlyn (this is another one of my faves)
    Paige
    Dakota
    Addison
    Laylah

    I love Willow but it doesn't go with our surname at all - such a cute name though!

    I think Annika Weston sounds just fine. Don't worry about the stealing if they're already only a "sort of" friend.

    Names

    Issac is a great name. And Annika is pretty - although I would ditch the double n - and just spell it Anika. Don't worry about your sort-of friend- the chances are her daughter will meet other girls with her name at school etc anyway.

    Some other unique 'A' name suggestions from my girl list (its much longer when you take into account the other letters!!) ;

    Akeiba (A-key-ba)
    Akaisha
    Alkaia (Al-kay-a)
    Amelie
    Averlie
    Avelyn/Avalyn
    Arielle
    Abrielle/Aybriel
    Aramei/Aremai
    Amiah
    Almira
    Anaiya
    Aralyn
    Aubrey
    Aysha
    Aleiya

    I LOVE the name Annika...one of my dearest friends daughters name is that so not possible for me. I think it goes great with your surname. Another name that is really pretty is Mieke...another friends daughters name but I love that one still too!
