We’re on the hunt for the perfect girls’ name, and N, you’re a sweet find. The 14th letter of the alphabet has some winners and we’re here for them. Sure, there’s the more popular offerings like Nora and Niamh. But there are some hidden gems like Nuala, too.
Perhaps you’re interested in N because you’ve already got a little Nathanial and you’d like to continue the trend with siblings. Or maybe your mums’ name is Nicole and you’d like to honour her. Whatever your reason, we’ve got a huge list of noteable N names for you to consider.
We asked our massive online community of half a million mums to share their favourite N baby names ranging from nostalgic numbers to ‘it’s noice and different’ and everything in between.
