A reader named Mercedes is expecting a baby girl in December:
Our 4-year-old is named Sophie. We love it because it’s cute and spunky. We initially came up with Daphne Colette for baby girl #2. But the more I think about it, the more I worry that Sophie and Daphne sound too similar. What do you think? On that note, can you think of any other names that deliver the same cute and spunky sound?
I was on the fence for a while about Sophie and Daphne…but I think I ultimately agree that they’re too much alike. As for other spunky names, how about:
| Astrid Beatrix Bettina Billie Brynn Calliope Chloe Cleo Daisy Darcy Della | Gemma Gia Lila Lucy Lyra Maeve Mia Molly Nelle Nina Penelope | Phoebe Pia Piper Reese Rory Ruby Stella Sylvie Tamsin Tess Zita |
(Sylvie and Phoebe are probably too similar to Sophie as well, but I left them on the list just in case.)
What other ideas do you guys have?
P.S. Mercedes is also considering the names Kendall, Julianne, Lola and Gwen.
