I need help coming up with a girl name. I thought I was settled on the name Evelyn, but no longer like it. I liked the name Laurel, but is close to someone I don't like so now feeling turned off to it. Nothing seems to be clicking.
Some criteria:
Can't be a gender neutral name
Looking for a unique name, but not out there.
Tend to lean towards natural names
I like strong sounding names
Ok go!

My favorite name for my first was Evelyn but DH didn't like it. We ended up using Vivian, which I love even more now. My favorite girl name for our 2nd (who ended up a boy) was Cecilia.

I have a cousin named Azelea. I thought it was different at first, but it's grown on me

@nana87: Good taste! One of those is my oldest's name and the other was in our top three for #2. We decided on something different but my best friend used that it!
