What do you think? For a girl.
Alternatively, another option is also fine!

    I'd skip sun, sea, or beach. Otherwise, Lourdes and Jules are fine names. I think Ava is the prettiest. Good luck with choosing!

    Lourdes is a French pilgrimage site where people take holy water with them. If you give your child that name, people will automatically associate it with the type of people who visit that pilgrimage site.
    Jules is a boy's name (Jules Deelder). Then go for Juliët(te).
    Zon en Zee is a bit too hip Amsterdam-South and has potential names that could be teased.
    I would choose Ava.
    Otherwise, maybe Lina, Luna, Iva.
    Good luck!

    I completely agree with the comments above. I was already thinking "Lourdes" ?????? Her classmates won't have a clue how to pronounce it haha. I'm also going with Ava, maybe because it was on my list too

    I also think Ava is the prettiest, but if you need other options:

    Louve (loeve) June Jule Jula Juno Juul (instead of Jules) Lou Lou-Lou Luus Luce Dana Rosa Manu Malú Luna Lune Maan Bloem Bloeme

    Jules is definitely a boy's name and Lourdes... sorry, no.

    Ava clicks nicely. Sun and Sea isn't my taste but not ugly.

    I only like May. Jules is really a boy's name. I'd rather go for Juul or Juliette, which is even more beautiful. I don't like sun and sea names at all. I've never heard of Lourdes, but it's not my thing either. Other suggestions: Evy, Ivy, Jula, Lune, Luna, Noa, Nica

    I hardly hear anyone mention May, but it's definitely a nice name. I'd just write it as Mae myself.

  8. Mij Guest #9

    No, these aren't my kind of names.

    May and Ava are great names. Jules can only really be seen as a boy's name in the Netherlands, I think.

    Sun, sea (and beach?) No, sorry, those aren't names. Nice later on... "You're going to the beach with Aunt Sea..." The sun is shining so nicely...

    Lourdes. ...No no no. You wouldn't name your child Scheveningen either (Paris and London are bad enough, but I wouldn't go for a pilgrimage site either.)

    God, so difficult... I genuinely find them all beautiful. I voted for Zee, but could have easily voted for any of the others.
