So we recently found out we're having a baby girl.
We had the boys names down to only a couple, but were having trouble coming up with the perfect girl name.
She will have a very common last name (Moore), so I want to avoid super common first names. I really want to avoid the top 50 names, and maybe the top 100 if possible. I grew up with a common first name (usually in the top 5, if not number one), so I know what it's like to have that.
I also like names that have an easy nick name. To give you an example, we named our dogs Montague (Monty) and Genevieve (Jenny). I like the cutesy nick name for when they're little but they still have a professional adult name.
Not asking much, I know.

So far my list is:

Adalynn
Lilyanna
Bryony

I like Charlotte, Alexis, and Elizabeth, but they are too common.

Any ideas or suggestions?
 
Josephine/Josie/Joey
Madelyn/Maddie
Eliana/Ellie
Emersyn/Emmy
Angelina/Angie
Cassandra/Cassie
Francesca/Frankie
Giavana/Gia
Arabella/Bella
Calista/Cali
Felicity/Lissie
Allyson/Ally
Rebecca/Becca
Victoria/Tori
 
Eliza is an alternative to Elizabeth...you could call her Ellie for short

A few others:

Margot [Maggie]
Leona [Lee]
Evalynne [Eva]
Adrienne [Addie]
 
Annalese/Anna
Annabelle/Anna or Bell
Adaline/Adie or Liney
Jocelyn/Josie


...sorry that's all I got
 
I don't have any good suggestions unfortunately but I had to say that I love the name Bryony! I think it sounds beautiful with your last name too
 
You could try some older names:

Harriet/ Hattie
Penelope/ Penny
Evelyn/Evie/Eve
Madeline/Maddy
Maria/ Mia
 
Avery/Ava
Josephine/Josie
Harriet/Hattie
Georgia or Georgina/ Georgie
Penelope/penny
Madeleine/ Maddie
Rosalie/Rose
 
Thanks for the suggestions. It's so hard.
For an update, right now we seem to be stuck on Lilyanne, Lily for short. If we went with that, her middle names would be Maryke (mar-I-ka) "Something". Still deciding on the second one, but the first one is my mom's name (it's Dutch). So Lilyanne Maryke -------. We were thinking Gail or Naomi, both of which are names from ladies on my husband's side.
