I need some help with a first name. Any suggestions please! I'm looking for a unique name, doesn't have to be really unique, that will match nicely with the middle name Lynn and the last name of Cobb. It's a girl, by the way :)


I really liked Ava & Leilah.
Ava short for Avalee but am worried it sounds a little old?
I really loved Jada Lynn for a little while, but already know 4 girls naming their baby girls Jada.


I have a really demanding mom that is really anxious to order everything for the baby shower that she wants so badly to have the baby's name on.

My first name is Destiny and I was teased when I was younger
for having a 'strippers' name, hah. The fathers name is Chris, really simple.
So I suppose a name between stripper & simple would be perfect :)

Thank you!

Yeah, if you're looking for a unique name, Ava is definitely not it. It's one of the most popular names around. It's nice, though. Hmm... suggestions:

Cecelia Lynn
Heidi Lynn
Tessa Lynn
Genevieve Lynn
Felicity Lynn
Natalie Lynn
Amelia Lynn

Have you tried Nymbler? I just put in Ava and Jada and these are some of the suggestions. www.nymbler.com It's fun to see what names are generated from one you already like!

Avalee sounds less old and more trashy to me.
Leila (and its spellings) is a pretty name, but I don't like it with Lynn.

I like Leila, but I don't particularly like Leilah or Layla; they both seem weird to me.

Ava is okay, but SO overused; Avalee looks made-up.

Stella
Johanna
Josephine
Caroline
Anya (could be used on its own or short for Anastasia or Anika/Annika)
Nina
Astrid
Violet
Audrey
Alexandra
Catrina

Your comment reminded me that I saw a terrible spelling of Heidi today:

Heidieh

Seriously!!!

Ouch! It looks like it should be pronounced 'HIGH-dee-ay'.

scarlett. poppy. april. sofia. violet. ramona. camilla. matilda. jemima. arabella. eleanor. francesca. zoey. madeleine. cordelia. adelaide. iris. ivy. ella.

thats all i can think of for now. some of these are somewhat popular, but they're not trendy. i think classic names are much more beautiful. for inspiration, go through the family tree. some of my relitives had some lovely names - audrey, marion, frances, laurence, may and violet. keep going you'l eventually find something you love.

That is so weird I have a friend named Chris who married a Destiny and they both just had a little girl!

Ava has become waay popular lately. I'm sick of it. I always liked Eva though, but then that's like Evelyn

Leilah Lynn sounds a little silly and rhymey

Let's see

Amelia, Cordelia, Serena, Delia, Daria, Chloe, Ariana, Helena, Xenia (It LOOKS awesome as a written name I think Lol), Alexia, Natalia are all names I can think of that pair nicely with Lynn (I love Lynn as a middle name btw)

I would skip Ava. Super trendy. Avalee sounds made up to me, and Avalee Lynn sounds weird. Sorry. I don't like Jada at all, it's too close to Jaden for me.

Some more ideas:

Amelia Lynn Cobb
Naomi Lynn Cobb
Katherine Lynn Cobb
Lucinda Lynn Cobb (Lucy?)
Regina Lynn Cobb
Gemma Lynn Cobb
Danica Lynn Cobb
Stella Lynn Cobb
Petra Lynn Cobb
Fiona Lynn Cobb
Charlotte Lynn Cobb
Ivy Lynn Cobb

These names are kind of old-fashioned/charming, so I hope it gives you some ideas.
