Baby Names

Liv?

Just Liv, not short for anything. Thoughts?

I adore Camille but can't get the hubs on board with it. We want something that is not unisex and not super popular or super out there, I'd love suggestions and inspiration. Other names we are considering are daphne, isla, and sienna.

Big sis is Ava.

    I like it as a nickname for Livia (one of my favorites) or Olivia, but not on its own.  Daphne is a great name too.

  • I normally like nn like names as given names but unfortunately not in this case. I feel like Liv is way too nn. But I guess Steven Tyler pulled it off.
  • I LOVE Daphne!! I do really like Liv as well.

    Not a fan of nicknames as stand alone names - why not just use the nickname and give your child the option of using her full name when she gets older. Best of both worlds IMO.

    Go for Olive.  Also like Isla.

    Agree with the others... LOVE Liv, just not as her full name... I do love Livia, though. And, I also really like Isla.

    Daphne is just NMS at all. 

  • I like Liv as a stand alone name but prefer it as a NN to Olivia or Livia.

    I say yes.. I adore the simplicity of Liv similarly I love Thea, Tess, Kate and Molly all as stand alone names. Daphne is great too and I actually prefer it as a sibset with Ava I think...
  • Although I prefer it as a NN for Olivia, I don't mind Liv as a full given name. A lot of people will assume her name is Olivia, but if that's not a problem for you, go ahead. I also like Daphne a lot.

  • I absolutely love this name.  It was probably going to be girl2 if we had twin girls.  It is Scandinavian and I tend to love those names.

  • Love it. We were SOOOO close to using Livia but thought everyone would think it was a NN for Olivia even though it's a distinct name w distinct roots. Liv is also a distinct name...northern european...i forget if swedish? from norway? anyway, love it.
