We still have 4 weeks until our girl arrives.
But the name? No, can't find it.
We like short, punchy, sweet names that aren't too common.
Examples:
Onah, oona, ona
Flin flinn flyn flynn
Dot dott
Fifne vifne fivne
Kuess kues
Would love to hear your thoughts!

    If I were to go with a short name, I'd pick one without tricky spellings. It seems so annoying for your kid to have to spell it out for everyone later on!

    You could also just go with your gut feeling once she's born. We were also torn between two names for a girl and planned to decide at birth, but it turned out to be a boy, so that made it easier! Good luck, and no one has ever lived life without a name, so it'll work out for you too!

    Well then, I think Flynn is the cutest.

    But for a girl, I'd rather make it Flynn. I don't like any of the others.
    Dot (here come the old aunts... oh what a dotje... no, not really tough. and yes sweet... I don't think I'd like that at 17.. dotje, dottie, etc.)

    Kues... I immediately think oh derived from kus... nicely thought but would you really want to be called that.

    Eden... short, cool and a beautiful meaning... namely blissful paradise. Can be used for both boys and girls. It's in my top 3.

    I like Dae! (Pronounced Dee)
    But Mae is also nice..

    And Do?

  13. Anoniem Guest #14

    Flynn, but for a girl, I think flinne/flynne is even prettier.

  14. Anonymous Guest #15

    I think Zasa is super. Never heard of it before. Sounds really smooth!

    What I think is a beautiful (Finnish) name, but unfortunately my husband wasn't a fan of: Aira

  18. Biebsie #19

    I think she's already born by now :-P
    Now I'm really curious what it turned out to be.

  19. Kiki Guest #20

    I really like Oona and Flin/Flynn for a girl!!
