Baby Girl Names that Start with I with meanings and origins.
If you’re having trouble coming up with a girl’s name, try trawling through lists of names by letter.
I’m not going to lie – sometimes getting a baby girl’s name can feel like an impossible task. There are so many options that it can get overwhelming.
Here are three tips that can help you choose the right name:
Tip #1: Know your pronunciations. It can be tempting to find a beautiful and unique sounding name, but if it sounds funny when said aloud, this might not be the best option for you.
Tip #2: Avoid nicknames. If you’re in love with a particular nickname look for the full name that nickname belongs to. This way your child has options when they grow up!
Tip #3: Consider potential nicknames (and schoolyard taunts). Are you happy with the most common nicknames of your chosen name? Chances are someone will shorten your little girl’s name at some stage. While you’re thinking about nicknames, are there any really obvious ways that name could be picked on at school?
I hope that helps! Here’s our list of names that start with I.
