And then it dawned on me--it actually makes me think of the "Sleeping Beauty" villainess named Maleficent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/unique-cool-girl-names-help/page/2#post-26748 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 23:55:55 +0000 Stosbet 26748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know yall have already decided on your top names but we should keep this thread going for other mommies to be!</p> <p>My fiance and I both recently admitted our love for the name Millicent. It's so pretty. However.. I greatly dislike the nickname Millie and I don't know that we would be able to stop people from calling her that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/unique-cool-girl-names-help/page/2#post-22725 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 08:35:01 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 22725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I had a discussing with the hubs, and we finally have our top contenders for a girl and a boy. Yay!!!</p> <p>Well we had a family brunch sunday and again they asked if we chose a name. We told them a few contenders and they all liked the name we "chose" (but didn't say we did) I wanted to test it out first. </p> <p>I remember for Mavrick some loved it others hated it but we were really happy with our choice anyway. I'm so excited! yay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/unique-cool-girl-names-help/page/2#post-21262 Wed, 23 Nov 2011 14:32:29 +0000 Maysprout 21262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the name Auralie but my husband was afraid people would think we had named our daughter 'orally'.

I also love Fiona, Daphne, Gemma, Isis, Sabine, Paloma, and I actually love Parker for a girl, although it seems pretty popular for boys right now. I excluded the name we picked because I'm keeping it top secret until she's born ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/unique-cool-girl-names-help#post-19588 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 17:05:24 +0000 loveablebee 19588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One name I really like that I don't hear too often is Harper </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/unique-cool-girl-names-help#post-19583 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 16:55:13 +0000 Red 19583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aria is also the name of a hotel chain, albeit an upscale one :). How about Ara? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/unique-cool-girl-names-help#post-19576 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 16:44:12 +0000 LuLu Mom 19576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I was scared PLL would make Aria very popular too. I haven't had anyone I know use it so there is still hope (if we were to have two girls.) We are using Emerson for a little girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/unique-cool-girl-names-help#post-19565 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 16:22:26 +0000 sugar 19565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Collette made it really far on our list.
