Default Girls names

I've had it with dh atm. He won't even listen to my baby names so I thought I would ask people that are more interested. Honestly I don't think he would mind what I call the next bub as long as it isn't a way out name. He is being really annoying about other things as well.

I have worked out a boy's name. I don't think he dislikes it so I think it will grow on him I am unsure about a girls name. I do have a fair amount of time to think about it but like to start early so I have time to change my mind a few times

I use to like Bethany but not sure now. I like Larissa but dh doesn't. Though he hasn't said he likes any of the names Also wondering about Lily but is it very popular? I like names that aren't too popular and are not that hard to spell. We always spell out our last name so it would be good not to spell the first as well.

Lily is a pretty name

My DH didn't like any of my name choices either
He doesn't like the name Aiden at all and Skye HE chose.
Breeze was a combination of both of his parents names so that got his approval too

I like the name Lily too!

We had a hard time too with DD - it ended up being a compromise in the end and it worked well, but never agreed on a boys name really, just one we sort of agreed on. DS was a snap actually (and scarily so!), the day I found out I was pregnant, he said the name and I liked it too, was so totally weird, mind you we still discussed names until we knew we were having a boy, but never agreed on a girls name, fate there for us....

Good luck, it is always a challenge, but you will get there in the end, plenty of time, but I am like you, I wanted to start discussing straight away, the excitement was just too much for my newly pg brain....

Ashton was going to be Lili if he was a girl I think it is a lovely name and yes it's popular but not too much (like Matthew and things) so I don't think you would have a problem with there being more than say 1 Lily in her class.
I like Bethany! I have a little cousin called that and I think it is a great name I don't like Larissa though, but that's because I knew one who wasn't so nice

Goodluck with your names. It is so fun picking them. I used to try them out for a week, calling my bump by that name, and if it stuck, it was chosen otherwise I would try something else. All my boys have been named at around 26weeks gestation hehe

I have a niece Lilly

Elise was un-named for a couple of days after she was born as we couldnt decide! Hubby wouldnt suggest anything and throughout the pregnancy he pretty much hated most of the names I suggested and only mildly disliked the others

Occasionally we will run into other little girls out and about called Lily too, but not overly regularly or often. I guess it's popular but not common, if that makes sense. I also like the Liliana version of it for something different.

We've got both a girl and boy name picked out for this little one, and they were both names we all (DH, Lily and I) agreed on... well, DH and Lily did argue over the boy name for awhile before they came to an agreement

Well DH and I have decided that our twins if they are girls are going to be Lily and Maya. We liked both of them because they weren't too unusual and easy enough to spell.
Good Luck picking a name.

Default Re: Girls names

I love the name Lilly, but I like names that are a little bit unique, so if I had used it on DD I think I might have regretted it. I just love really pretty names on girls, so even if its common as long as its really girly

Next bub if its a girl will either be:
Tia (Most likely as this has been my favourite name since I was about 16)
Mia (more common I know)
Misha (Could almost be the new favourite name...)
