I am in need of some suggestions.....im desperate!!!! Im nearing the end of my 2nd trimester & am completely stumped for a girls name. I've always had lists & favourites but right now, nothing seems 'right' To give you an idea of my taste - boys list Milo Louis Rafferty Cy Arlo Ned but we've pretty well settled on Louis if its a boy. Girls names i like Poppy Stella Daisy (worried these 3 are becoming a bit too well known) Iris (dh says noooo way) avalon I do like names that arent too popular, even a little different hence why im a little hesitant to use any of the first 3. any suggestions for girls names would be so appreciated, i am soooo stuck!!! TIA

Story Sadie Juliet Quinn Eva Emerson Marlowe Clara Marley Willa Bonnie Beatrix Nova Monet Pippa Harlow Monroe Adele Pixie Thea Asha Alba Lola Lila Lulu Wren Arlo Coco Luna Juna Juno Phoenix River Winter Emmeline Jovie Fern Avery Freya/Freja Cleo Flora Nora Flynn Memphis Harper Hazel Violet (I'd suggest Mila, but you may already have one going by your username?)

I have a Louis and he is super dooper awesome! Plus, I have a niece called Iris, who is just divine... But I digress... I feel that although I love your first three girls names, for me - they are too popular now to consider using them. Avalon is totally NMS. Louis would have been named Alba, were he born a no tail. I also love; Clementine, Francesca, Roo. I'll come back and add more when I can think of them!

Oh yes, Celeste is lovely! Celestine was also on my list, after my favorite books as a child, Ernest and Celestine. It seems no one else has heard of these books though, I was obsessed! Also, my other niece is named Roma. I think this is rather lovely too.
