What’s a cute name for a girl?                                                                             

There are just so many to choose from. And ‘cute’ is surely in the ear of the hearer... If you know what I mean.

Now popular is easy. In the USA, UK and Australia - it would seem we are going back to the traditional and slightly foreign sounding names.

Sophia -  a little more sophisticated than Sophie

Isabella - daintier than Isabel

Emily, Amelia and Charlotte - straight  out of a Jane Austen novel!

In the USA, Madison and Harper (thanks for the latter to David Beckham) are very popular, while in the UK and Australia they still like their flowers - Poppy, Lily  and Rosie are just too sweet for words!

But back to cute.

Trouble is - girls grow up and what was ‘cute’ when they were three isn’t always so when they turn out to be great big teenagers with enormous thighs!

Suppose Grace doesn’t grow up gracefully? Or Patience is always in a hurry? Scarlett might end up colourless, and Charity the meanest girl you could meet!

If you stick to Bible names you can’t go wrong can you?

Eve, Martha, Mary, and Esther are just fine - but you could be a little more adventurous.

What about Jemimah, Keziah and Keren-Happuch? These are the three daughters of Job and believe it or not my friend is called Keren-Happuch!  She calls herself Keren because she got fed up with people saying, ‘Keren who?” Great name though.

Sometimes parents get carried away don’t they?  Like the previous example I think everyone should be more thoughtful and considerate of the person who has to carry their name for the rest of their life.

One mum I know well, recently called her daughter Rubyp - and no it’s not a typo. It’s pronounced Rubypee. Ruby with letter p stuck on the end. It’s not for me - but maybe I shouldn’t feel sorry for her - maybe Rubyp will love her name - maybe one day she’ll think it’s cute.

Personally, I like the more unusual names, like Danni, Hope, Eva or Skye. It depends, really, on what the person is like - I do a bit of writing, so I name my characters to suit their personality - but if you're naming a child, that obviously won't work! Some others that I like are Kayley, Ella, Quinn, Morgan, Lola, Brianna, Ember and Ivy.

You could try choosing a name that you like and change the spelling to give it a twist.

It's really down to what you like. Good luck! I hope you find something that you like :)

I think that "Stoatwobbler" is rather nice.

For those of you who remember Monty Python. There was a sketch with Graham Chapman as "Raymond Luxury-Yacht". He insisted that while it was spelled "Luxury-Yacht" it was actually pronounced "Throatwobbler Mangrove-Swamp". I just "enhanced" Throatwobbler a little. Good that it is also the name of a beer. :)

Try Tamar-Lily or Chantelle, Amarachi, Chizara, Tanwa, Damianne or Tina. I really love tamar-lily though, you could come up with lots of cute nicknames. Chantelle is also cute. I'm gonna give my kids those names.
