Thoughts on Our Long, Long List

[Jellyfish]

Our long list for girls needs some serious thinning out so after some of your thoughts - what are your favourites? It doesn't really feel like we even have a theme going here but if you have any suggestions, feel free to throw those at me too.

Surname begins with B and is one syllable. DD1's name is Imogen Jade. I didn't really want to have two girls with 'ee' ending nicknames but I'm getting over that as Imogen mostly goes by "Im" and you never really know what somebody will end up being called on a regular basis. Also, it doesn't seem to sound terrible together as long as it isn't a complete rhyme (eg. Immy & Abby, Immy and Allie etc sound alright), right?

Also curiouse about any combinations as we are yet to decide on a middle name.

Abigail
Allegra
Antonia
Bernadette
Bianca
Bridget
Cadence
Clementine
Daphne
Henrietta
Jemima
Josephine
Layla
Lena
Lorelai/Lorelei
Lyla
Michaela
Mika
Payton/Peyton
Penelope
Philomena
Piper
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)
Samara
Seraphina
Tabitha
Temperance
Veronica

Oh my that is a long list!! We don't even have one Lol.. Have you and DH agreed on all those names?? Or is that just your list

My picks are Tabitha and Cadence. I like both those but DF hates Tabitha and Cadence is a friends kids name I have to be honest though, i don't think much of the other names ( Lucky my opinion doesn't matter lol)

[DANNIIM]

I don't mind Peyton but we've picked Abigail (Abbey) for our little girl so that would be my pick out of your list

[ladybirdflies]

I LOVE Philomena, my daughter named her doll that after we read them a book with a Philomena in it. Everytime I hear it, I love it more and more!

[Jellyfish]

Oh my that is a long list!! We don't even have one Lol.. Have you and DH agreed on all those names?? Or is that just your list

It was a lot longer when it was just mine!! We both played around on Nymbler to make our lists and then looked over eachothers and combined the ones we both agreed on. DP's favourite at the moment is Veronica, mine is Rafaela which DP says would be fine with his Sister's Daughter being Ella but I'm almost certain it wouldn't, doh!

[*Ash*]

I am very impressed with your comprehensive list! Ours wouldn't even be that long if we included boys names too!
I like Veronica, Josephine, Clementine and Bridget.
Good luck!

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

[Lisa]

Veronica, Bridget & Samara are my favourites on your list.

[alish]

Allegra - i think this goes with imogen the best imo
Cadence
Layla
Lyla
Michaela
Payton/Peyton
Piper

[Manhattan]

From your list, these are the ones I like:

Allegra
Cadence
Lyla
Mika
Payton/Peyton
Penelope
Piper
Samara
Seraphina
Tabitha
Temperance

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!

[Tuesday's Child]

I like

Abigail
Allegra - this was on our list for DD1
Daphne
Penelope
Philomena
Piper
Samara - This goes nicely with Imogen

[Nai]

Josephine
Penelope
Veronica

are my faves from teh list

[Pip82]

I like Samara the best it is s beautiful name and it goes well with Imogen as a bonus. I like Clementine too but doesn't sound as good with your DD1. Layla and Lyla are nice too. I don't like Allegra and Rafaela, sorry.

[peanutter]

I adore the name Veronica.

[RhiChiChi]

This is purely based on your DD name (and a little bit of what I like), in no particular order:

Abigail
Allegra
Cadence
Payton
Piper

Piper
Temperance.

Suggestion for you:

Sarita - I know a little girl with this name and she is gorgeous!

Good luck!
