Hello all! I’m seeking help to name my second daughter. My first daughter’s name is Elaina Grace, nickname Lainey.
My goals for this name is something classic, feminine, 3-4 syllables, with a cute, warm seeming nickname. (Please don’t suggest just using a shorter name - I love having a formal name/nickname for my current daughter :))
Names we’ve liked so far but ultimately decided against because they didn’t feel right:
Emilia nn Emmie Vivian nn Vivi
Please help. I feel so stuck at this point after looking at names for months. I’m hoping someone can reinspire me with some ideas here. Thanks in advance!!
I would describe my naming style as classic/old fashioned with cute and approachable nicknames. My favorite girls names are Elizabeth (Betty) and Margaret (Maisie) but my husband is not a fan of either. I also like a lot of "grandma" names. Here's some on our list, let me know which is your favorite or other names that fit this style:
Dorothy (Dot) Josephine (Josie) Susannah (Susie or Annie) Harriet (Hattie or Etta) Beatrice (Bea) Mabel (Mae)
