My husband suggested Willow for baby girl and I kinda like it but it’s a little outside the box for me. I like more traditional names and I think it might end up sounding dated or try-hard? Thoughts? My children are Sophie and Grant.

It tends more toward the bohemian but I wouldn’t side eye it like I would River or Stone.

Thanks for the idea. We aren’t particularly into nature. He just liked the name. Other names we like are Paige and Norah. Yes, I know pretty much everyone hates Norah with an ‘h’ lol

I think Paige or Norah are both great and better fit with your other children. I prefer Willa over Willow, and I think Willa is a little more common/less hippy.
My only issue with Willow is I just can't picture her as an adult, middle aged, old. I can see a little girl named Willow and that's it. Or older, but she doesn't shave and she smokes a lot of pot. (The picture in my head, not your kid 😂).

LOL not to worry — I’ve ruled it out already.

I like Willa as an alternative or even Wilhelmina.
