American name for baby girl
Posted: 03-07-08 01:05am

Hello everyone,

I feel very excited, my wife will give me a daughter next month. But I am not ready to name her. I am a chinese and don't know how to give a american name. Could you tell me the general rule?

We usualy give name by meaning. So I found Larina, which means sea gull. My name is hai, which means ocean or sea. She should be very precious, above the sea (me). I am not sure this name is good or not.

Any suggestion would be appreciate.

Thanks,

Hai Wu

I think Larina is a good name. It sounds nice and has a good meaning. It isn't so common that there will be ten other girls with the same name at her school, but it's not a name that's hard for other people to spell and pronounce.

My son, who is a student in middle school, like another name "Meranda". He may have some feeling about girl name. I'm not sure which one is better.

Thanks again,

Miranda is a nice name. It's more common than Larina, but not extremely common. I think it's very pretty. It means "worthy of admiration."

Miranda is the correct spelling, though. It comes from the name of a character in a play, and that's how it was spelled there.

Hi there what about Jade, Pearl or Ruby after precious stone.

Camillia, Lily or Rose after flowers.

Or

Amber or Violet after the rainbow may her live be colourful as the rainbow.

Hope these names help and congratulation to you and your wife - Hart74

You don't have to give her an American name. Consider a Chinese name.

Larina and Miranda (spelled this way only) are beautiful wonderful girl names. Either one would be a great choice. I personally prefer Miranda, but I love the meaning behind Larina better. Good luck!
