    2. Anyone have any good ideas for sweets themed names? My new girl is going be candy cake and ice cream in pastel pinks oranges blues and greens. Only thing i can come up with is Coco, but shes not really going to be chocolatey...
       
    3. @lividdarkangel - Ooh, that's a fun idea... Something like Vanilla, Saffron, Meringue, Marzipan, Ginger, Cinnamon, Caramel? Apparently Charlotte, Clementine, and Chiffon are types of cake? Maybe Mille-Feuille? Pastila, Pastille, Sherbet, Taffy? Macaron? Silvana (a type of frozen cookie)? Éclair, Parfait, Sundae, or Crème Brûlée? :lol:

      Reminder to anyone else: This isn't my personal thread - anyone is free to ask for or give suggestions here!

    6. Got another doll i need a name for. Shes a REDICULOUSLY small mermaid. I want her name to be cute but also pretty. Any ideas?
       
    7. I suppose Pearl, Coral, Jewel, Sapphire, and Sandy are probably too obvious? :lol:
      Looking at small fish names - Tetra, Corydoras, Badis, Hara Jerdoni, Mollie, Killifish, Betta, Anthias, Chromis, Ocellaris, Percula
      Looking at shrimp names - Natantia, Caridina, Caridea, Pasiphaea, Sabinea, Sergia
      Looking at shellfish names - Lucine, Cerith, Coquina, Tulip, Olive, Buttercup, Melongina, Turritella, Junonia, Venus

      Do you have any sort of concept for her?

    8. At the moment no. Shes coming to me blank, and im hoping to send her out for an artist choice faceup, as long as they keep her with cool colors and fantasy themed. She will come with horns and a cute shell to keep her in.
       
    9. Ah, well I'm sure it'll be easier to narrow down the ideas after that.
      A few more thoughts, not all small fish, though:
      Arapaima, Arowana, Ayu, Catla, Demoiselle, Ilisha, Kahawai, Medaka, Parore, Rivuline, Tilapia, Trahira, Trevalla / Trevally
      Stargazer fish aren't pretty, but the name is nice. :lol:

    10. Thank you for this wonderful list. Fantastic resource for finding names for our doll families.
      I recently watched on Netflix 'Enola Holmes' Loved her name. Means Alone spelled backwards.
      Totally unique. :-)

    11. Thank you for this great list! Time to explore and finally name some of my boys; I have been calling them by the sculpt names for months now.

    12. Oooh I was thinking about a thread like this the other day
      Could anyone suggest any feminine, delicate names of a French origin?
       
      • x 1
    13. I browsed through Behind the Names and kept the ones that sounded the most delicate to my ears (I’m French)
      The range goes from popular to unusual, classical to recent:
      Adélie, Adeline, Agathe, Aline, Alizée, Amandine, Amarante, Ambre, Amélie, Anaïs, Ange, Angèle, Angeline, Angélique, Annabelle, Annette, Apolline, Ariane, Aurore, Bérénice, Camélia, Camille, Cassandre, Céleste, Célestine, Céline, Cerise, Clémentine, Colombe, Constance, Diane, Églantine, Éloïse, Émeline, Émilie, Estelle, Eulalie, Florentine, Floriane, Garance, Héloïse, Iris, Isabelle, Julie, Juliette, Lisette, Louane, Lucie, Maëlle, Manon, Mathilde, Maud, Mélanie, Mélodie, Mirabelle, Mylène, Noémie, Océane, Odette, Ophélie, Oriane, Rose, Roxane, Sophie, Suzanne, Vanessa, Virginie, Vivianne

      I hope this helps :)

      Good luck!
       
    15. I know that I struggle with names and I figured other people do too. Maybe we could have a thread where we suggest names for each other's dolls? :sweat

      I'll start! I'm trying to figure out a name for this girl. I don't have a good grasp on her character yet but she's dressed pretty girly at the moment.

    16. I’m so bad with names and keep almost all of the sculpt names but based on looks alone the names that popped into my head for your girl is Faline or Fawn because of her big blue eyes. Baby whitetail deer have blue eyes.

    17. I love names! I have a collection I've gathered ever since I was a preteen. Here are some ideas for you!

      Alice
      Alanna
      Annaliese
      Aurelia
      Beatrice
      Clarisse/Clarissa
      Camille/Camilla
      Calla
      Celeste/Celestine/Celestina
      Daisy
      Delphine
      Evelina
      Emmeline
      Emilia
      Elsa
      Fleur
      Florence
      Flora
      Gemma
      Juliana
      Lilliana
      Lisette
      Linette
      Lacey
      Nora/Norah
      Sophia
      Serena

      Most of these names have a “soft” or gentle vibe to me, because she looks sweet and innocent.

      I hope this helps!
       
    18. First thought that ran through my head was Amelia. She's lovely BTW.
       
    19. She looks great! The first names that popped into my head were Lilith or Lillian.
       
    20. My first thought upon seeing her face was Bella :hug:
       
    21. Oooh, the name that popped into my head when I saw this girl was "Emma"! She's very cute; I hope you find the right name for her. :3nodding: I might also take advantage of this idea, haha; I have a couple guys that still need naming myself...
       
    22. My first thought was Lila/Lyla. :)
       
    23. She looks like Elise to me.

    25. To me she looks like a Momo. She is as pretty and cute as a peach. Her face is somewhat peach shaped.
