I have never heard of Nymbler, but after a quick google search I think I'm about to get aquainted

Oh yeah, it is great!! Enjoy playing around with names

And I would say that Rafaela and Ella sound too alike. But, that is just my opinion, heck, I was worried about naming DD a name that started with the same letter as her cousin, lol!

Name Nymbler was a fave of mine too when I was pg!

Definitely agree it is too close... I know it is... just. can't. let. go... oh well, that at least makes our list one name shorter haha!

Thanks everyone for your thoughts! I was actually drawn to Samara originally because of how well it seemed to flow with Imogen so interesting to see somebody else thought so too

Abigail - nope
Allegra - yes
Antonia - maybe...
Bernadette - no. I don't like names that were popular in my own generation
Bianca - no. same as above
Bridget - Yes
Cadence - no, I don't like the way it sounds.
Clementine- yes... but I think of flem.
Daphne- maybe. How about Dahlia?
Henrietta- not really a fan of femine versions of male names.
Jemima - love it
Josephine - no. WAY too many Jo's in my generation!
Layla- yes
Lena- no
Lorelai/Lorelei- no
Lyla- no
Michaela- I prefer Mikayla but it had a boom a few years ago.
Mika- pronounciation could be a problem?
Payton/Peyton - i'm not a fan. I know this name is in vogue at the moment.
Penelope - no. generation rule.
Philomena- no, seems a bit too 'fancy'
Piper- too popular at the moment
Rafaela (not sure about this as DP's Sister's little girl is Ella - too close? Really do love it but think I need to stay away from that ending)- I don't really like it
Samara- LOVE
Seraphina- too fancy
Tabitha- yes
Temperance- too fancy
Veronica- yes

I don't really like any of them, but you know how strange I am, so I know you'll forgive me and not take it personally... LOL

You could always use some of my leftover names cos I'm not having any more (and I really really do mean it. no more Mel.. no more!!)

[NaeNae]

I really like Allegra from your list the only one I really didn't like much was Clementine (we have a cow on the farm called that and she is a pain ) but WOW your list is massive I don't feel so bad now

[kristi14]

Cadence (love it with a K)
Peyton (what about Peyson/Payson, i think thats gorgeous)
Seraphina (we very nearly called our dd this but ended up naming her Sapphire)
Temperance (love this, love names like this)
Samara (i do like this name)

Those are the ones i like from your list, just thought i would suggest Vienna too. Its nice and pretty but unique, i have it as one of my dd's middle names

[ButterflyForever]

Rafaela

Samara

Seraphina (love this one).

Tabitha (my daughters name, she gets Tabby, it really suits her).

Have fun.
