Baby GIRL names you wish were used more often

Squinneyarice

Oh yeah! Be careful the first name goes well with the last....

My first name ends with the s sound (joyce) and the first letter of my birth name began with a z.
When I would say my whole name, it just slurred together, and usually people thought my name was joy, which I dislike.

Dont use these:

Here's an old name that was my grandmother's. Louise.

FreeDuck. I already offered my grandmother's name. Ethel. First come, first served. Joah can name her next daughter, Louise.

We talked about it in the car and my husband still loves... "Abby"

...while I'm pushing for Madeline Clarice... "Maddy"

...and I really like Clara.

I love Abby too. Just a warning that Abby/Abigail is a pretty popular name right now. It all depends whether you care about that or not.
