Helder, Indy, Polly, or Ellis

AnonymousGuest ·
End of November (not long now) our second little girl is coming and we still don't have a name! We're debating the name Helder. It's a Portuguese name but normally for a boy, heard it recently. What do you think about using it as a girl's name? I'm really hesitating because it's so special. Other names on the shortlist are Indy, Polly and Ellis (also some unusual middle names).

    I searched and in Portugal it's both a boy's name and a girl's name.
    Meaning is: the bright one.
    Indy and Polly aren't my thing.
    Ellis is a safe choice.
    Helder: unknown, but people do get used to it.

    I think Helder is super beautiful! I also like the alternatives, but I’d go with Helder. It can definitely work for a girl too.
