Help[Opinions] River
Hey all,
Just wondering what the opinions are of the name River for a girl. It's been growing on me lately. I've always been a sucker for -er ending names, and I like that it has a nature theme. I'm not as big a fan of the standard -er names for girls like Heather, Harper, Piper, Summer, etc. I guess names like Taylor and Sawyer (traditionally sir names or boy's names) are starting to catch on for girls, but I feel like River is a nice alternative, and I also like that it's not an occupation name but still has the -er.
I've always loved hiking by, swimming, kayaking, and just generally exploring rivers anyway. There's something calming about them. And I've always liked the name Brooke, which is more mainstream, but why not River? Even though I know it's less common. Though is it too out there? Too "hippy-ish"?
I do think the middle name should be more traditional and feminine, so I was thinking possible combos of: River Amelia, River Louisa, River Victoria, River Elizabeth, or River Olivia (couldn't help myself with it "iv" repetition, lol). Any other combo ideas?
General opinions and thoughts are welcome! Thanks!
