I'm struggling with a finding a good name for Coccinelle at the moment.
The name I like the most on the list is too similar to A's real name. I'm not going to write the real names here, but it would be as if A's real name was David and I was going to call Coccinelle Davina or something like that. A had such a short life, that I feel like that would be diminishing the little he had.
Likewise, the name we had picked out for V in case he was a she feels like it belongs to him as a person. We didn't know V was a boy until after we knew he had died but we had chosen both names.
It's a challenge to find names which will be neither completely mispronounced in French or in English nor which will be a source of teasing in one or other language because of some meaning and which are of Hindu origin. Those are the criteria.

Well, I like Charlotte, Elisa, and our girl would have been Morgane (or at least Megane) if it was different... All our boys have names finishing by "an". I find Alexandra very elegant. There's always Amelie..
Names are HARD.
Maybe something will come to you as the date draws )even) closer, or after you have seen the baby. xo
Those are quite difficult criteria. I have no suggestion, i just wish you luck!
Oh, and about hindu. I liked it a lot at the time: Indira. I still love it!
