Need baby girl names...

with a 'z' or a 'v' in them. Seems these are names I'm drawn to because they seem strong. Middle name will be Carolyn, so I'd prefer if the last syllable didn't repeat the 'n' sound (i.e., Vivian Carolyn).

We are really struggling with girl names! I like ones that are unusual (otherwise, I'd choose Olivia)... Thanks!!!

Re: Need baby girl names...

  • Ok, I am thinking it is probably going to end in "a" from your preferences. Also a lot of Hebrew names have the "v" or "z" so you might check those lists out.

  • I love the name Avis.  It was on my short list when I was still thinking about #2.

     

  • I like Eliza, Avis (family name for us), Zoe/Zoey, Hazel, Aiza (spanish for cliff or rock - seems fitting for you guys), Aveline (Avie for short), Avia, or Evy (girl I met through other friends has a daughter with this name same age as Bryn).

    ETA: Oh and I totally love Olive, but now I see pps already mentioned that one.

    Not fitting your criteria, but I also like Mika (girl form of Micah, but pronounced M-ee-ka), Leta/Gretta, and Scarlett b/c they sound good with your middle name. 

    I can't wait to hear what you guys come up with!

    Are you united with the CCOKCs?

  • Eliza, Evelyn and Victoria are some of my favorites, though we'll never get to use for one reason or another. 

  • I've got nothing but have you been on the site nameberry.com? Those ladies are super helpful! Though I think you got a lot of great ones from our awesome ladies too! ;)

  • I like Everly, Elizabeth (obvs), Aven, Zoe, Evangeline
  • I'm disappointed no one has suggested Nevaeh
  • I found another one...Avital.  I think it's Hebrew, but it's pretty and unique.

    Oh and I also found Azelia, Azalea, Liv, Reeve, .  It's kind of fun to look for these during conference calls today. ;)

  • imageruby soho:
    I like Everly, Elizabeth (obvs), Aven, Zoe, Evangeline

    Aven is my oldest daughter's middle name ... I love it and it has meaning for us because it is a small flower that grows here in Colorado, specifically, we find it in the meadow near our cabin, which is why we love it so much.  It's a pretty name and different without being weird.

    I agree with a lot of the other names posted.  I like Virginia, Olive, Genevieve, Evangaline, Veronica.

  • I love Evangeline, olivienne, and vivienne.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • Hmmm, I've also heard of the name Danica (pronounced Dan-ick-a).  Its a little different, and it has grown on me recently (though we aren't using it).   

     

    Also, my BIL is dating a Spanish girl named Yolanda, and that name has grown on me also.

    Another name my DH's cousin used for their new baby girl is Avelina.  

     

    ETA:  Oops missed your criteria for a V or Z in it....well the last one works, but I'll leave the other suggestions on the list just in case :)

  • I think most of my suggestions have already been listed, but I like Suzanne, Elizabeth (or one of the derivatives), Charlize, Violet, Viola, Victoria, Octavia, Avery, Sylvia, Evelyn, Ivy, Yvette, Savannah, River, Raven.  I thought of Esperanza (not sure I love that one, but it is different).

  • Thanks, Ladies! I'm impressed with all that you came up with! I actually fell in love with one of the names suggested and am trying to win DH over with it...he's close!
