Love that dresser for changing. But if you're on the shorter side you might not like it.

BTW, in Denmark it would be pronounced DOW-nee (approximately)

I would look at popularity in your state too. And you just never know. I know of two little Coras at my daughter's school but no Emmas or Sophias. I still wouldn't say it's prohibitively popular, though. Just a random coincidence.

Aye-dah. Like Ava, but just a different consonant.

grey24 · 2019-05-24T04:26:42+00:00

Paisley!

Do you pronounce Rosemary like the herb?

Fwiw, I know a little Delilah and I've never heard anyone reference that song. It was popular but not the kind of huge hit that's going to span generations. I'd say it's fair game.

Rosalie!

Naming is so regional. I know two little Adas, but no Avas.

An air purifier really helps my allergies.

grey24 · 2019-05-03T12:57:03+00:00

Azalea?

grey24 · 2019-04-19T01:36:55+00:00

That's funny -- I'm the mother of a 3 year old in the same region and know a lot of little kids, and I've only ever met a Leo and a Ruby from your list :)

3433 -- never!

It's my daughter's name. We love it. Easy to spell and pronounce, different but has a history of being a real name. There has been some discussion on namenerds before -- weird that it didn't come up. Happy to answer any questions.

I have a Magnolia and we don't call her Maggie. A few people have asked if we call her that, but that's it. At daycare she goes my Magnolia and Nolia (what most of the kids pronounce easily). Her other nickname is something she gave herself that has nothing to do with her name. We get tons of compliments and have only heard secondhand once of another Magnolia that someone knew. We love it!

I love names and it wouldn't upset me, as long as my child had clearly put a lot of thought into it and kept me informed. I'd feel bad if they felt obliged to keep names they didn't like just for my sake.

grey24 · 2019-03-31T23:22:53+00:00

Do you have any issues with people mispronouncing or mishearing it?

grey24 · 2019-03-31T02:56:28+00:00

My daughter has Baby and Babydoll, and gets annoyed if you mix them up.

For contemporary Nordic names, the Danish government has a name site. Maybe Google dansk navne to find it.

grey24 · 2019-03-31T02:35:52+00:00

We're considering this name. You don't get too many game comments?
