Who likes Onyx for a girl?

[Chamberry]

Hi all Im still a newbie around here and have been trying to kill time while ttc by thinking of baby names, Im pretty sure ill be having a girl next so would really love to use my mums name Mary BUT sorta twist it around abit so far Ive come up with

Ryma
Myra
Ramy

my MIL is Rosa so I would also consider a Varient of both names together ??

Sara
Roma

I also love the name Onyx.. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated

[Lionfish]

Hmm I'm not sure.... I think it is a very strong sounding name, perhaps a good one for a boy?? Only my opinion though, best of luck with TTC

[jenjams]

Onyx is not my taste but if you love it, go for it.

I like Myra from your choices. I dont mind Ramy but would go for Remy.

[Chamberry]

Thank you for your opinions Onyx is a strong character name and i do like it alot and the meaning behind it is really nice too..

Thanx again

[smiles4u]

Oh ONYX is my absolute favourite gemstone in the whole world (even over diamonds )

I think it sounds a bit hard for a girl ... maybe more for a boy

But if it's what you LOVE i would go for it (i know not everyone is in favour of my own daughter's name BUT did i care ... NOPE ... cause "WE" from the start & still do & she is now 2.5yrs)

I'm not sure if i'd go for Remy as suggested as it's a well known brandy name ... but hey if you like brandy why not

... I like RYMA ... and ROMA !!!

By the way, i'm curious now ... what DOES Onyx mean ???

[visitor1]

How do you pronounce Onyx??

Looks weird to me so not somethign id pick

[Chamberry]

smiles4u hmm yeah been pondering over the name for a couple of days and still like it but maybe more for a boy..
the meaning of Onyx is Crystal with veins it is generally used to help with grief and sorrow and the Onyx gem was the first semi precious stone to found in the garden of Eden..

kimbaz You poronounce Onyx Oh - nix

I like Myra and Sara.

Onyx seems masculine and trying-too-hard.

[Bea06]

I love Sara.

Not so keen on onyx.... Mostly because i'm not sure of how to exactly how to pronounce it (and i'm already wondering if I've spelt it wrong). I think it's kind of hard to get through life always having to spell your name and correct people in loud places!

But hey, that's just my opinion, go with what you love.

[Fuzzywuzzy]

My little bro's favourite pokemon was Onyx, so I can only think of Japanese cartoons when i hear that name.

I am really liking Nadya or Nadia for a girl at the moment

[Nelle]

My bad, I thought Onyx was pronounced On-ix. I like it, Honour is a girl's name too, and doesn't sound too different, so Onyx isn't much of a stretch from that for me.

Have fun and all the best choosing!

I love Onyx. It was my favourite mare's name and it was on my list but we didn't have a girl and DH didn't want me naming my babies after my horses lol.
FWIW I think that it's pronounced the way that Nelle pronounces.

[Chamberry]

dachloster Yeah it is pronounced that way lol I just didnt know how to put it so I gave it my best shot.. thx

Antonia Blanche Thanx for your opinion but didnt quite understand what you meant by "trying to hard" please clarify.

Nelle thx hun for clearing up the pronounciation in my eyes it looked like On - ix lol also loving the name Honour.

jenjams Ive thought about Ramy but found it to be dominant for boys Remys nice too thx for your help.

So maybe Onyx is a bit boyish but how about Tayzl? (like hazel with a T) Hope Im not being to pushing adding another name to the post but have also fell in love with this one.

Cheers

I like Hazel but Tayzl reminds me of a wurzel.

[Chamberry]

I like Hazel but Tayzl reminds me of a wurzel.

LOL@Wurzel.. Im not sure wat a wurzel is but it does sound similar Hazel is nice but

fairly common now I like popular names with a bit of a twist..

[Phteven]

Worzel Gummidge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I can't spill.....

[Chamberry]

How could I not remember Worzel gummidge my all time favourite book when I was a kid maybe I shuld go with Tayzl in his rememberance lol jk tnx for the info

[~*lyams mum*~]

Hmm, I quite like Onyx, it's unusual and has a nice ring to it

If you're trying to combine Rosa and Mary though - Rosemary?? Crazy?
