Girl Names

mweirich

My husband and I are having a hard time choosing a girl's name. We going to be surprised. We decided on a boy name,but can't think of a girl name we really love. I like old fashion names, English names, or feminine classics. Any suggestions? We also like grace but have not found a middle name that we love with it. Please help!!

In no particular order, some girl names I love:

Louisa
Margaret
Nora
Bethany
Seraphina
Josephine
Charlotte
Camilla
Aubrey
Emma
Elizabeth
Emily
Lila
Claire
Alison

ETA - That's about 2/3 of my list of girl names...the others don't seem to fit your criteria or are on there for other reasons (relatives names, etc). I only managed to come up with 4 boys names I like total...luckily DH and I found 1 of those that we agree on

We are naming our daughter Grace Olivia. (Olivia after my dad Oliver).

Nameberry.com has a lot of good name lists too.

What about Emily Grace? That's my favorite girl name, but DH has vetoed using Emily ever.

Charlotte, Elizabeth, Margaret, Edith, Sarah, Hannah?

Glad you posted this, I'm in the exact same situation and I'm not very fond of the name board since they all suggest the same thing over and over!

Annabelle
Katrina
Cassidy
Olivia
Lorraine

I hope I end up having a girl someday so I can name her Kennedy. Not really a classic girl name-but I love it so much that I convinced myself it fit your criteria.

My favorites: Eleanor Evelyn Abigail Alodie (pronounced elladee) Eileen If I have a girl, we have already decided on Evelyn Margaret, after family. Our boy name is also after family. ETA please forgive the lack of formatting, mobile bumping sucks.

H and I are debating between two girl names

Lily Maye
Ali Maye (spelling is up in the air)

H doesn't like Ali, he's dead set on Lily so I'll probably let him win that one. But we aren't for sure of the middle name either. It's a mix of our mother's middle names, Marie and Faye. He's not thrilled with it and I just don't love the spelling.

But I'm loving some of the other names above! I love Charlotte, Olivia, Emily, Cora, Rosalie.

Apparently I don't have a particular "taste", just a mix of everything

@Ck61 I like Lily Grace!

H's only other opinion was Lily Rose, but I thought having two flowers for names was a little weird...

I have a middle name I rarely see... Lanae. We are going with Olivia Hannah... Hannah is after my mom.

I love the name Norah or Nora for a girl. It's older and classic.  It was one on my list.  Along with Kennedy...and Addison. We chose Addison, which seems to be on the rise of popularity.

Im loving these refreshing suggestions! I have been going back and forth on several:
Adalee
Alyssa
Kylie
Kayla
Clara
Mackenzie (my husband loves this one)
Riley (another one my husband loves)

Thankfully our middle name is set (Mae - a family name).
