The Best Names Fitting For Your Bouncing Baby Girl
Congratulations! If you have a baby girl on the way, we can't wait for you to take your first steps into the life-changing world of parenthood. But before you get to that point, there are a few important decisions you have to make. For one, the name of your baby! While there are endless options for you to consider, if soft and gentle are what you're going for, this list is for you.
1. Lilah
Reminiscent of both the soft purple color and beautiful flower, Lilah is soft, airy, and unbelievably sweet-sounding. There are no harsh tones in the name and it leaves your mouth like a gentle whisper. We can easily see this one fitting so many different baby girls.

2. Georgia
Some names immediately give off positive vibes and Georgia is a perfect example of that. The name just radiates joy and friendliness, two traits we’re certain all parents would love to impart on their child.
3. Annabelle
Just try to forget about that creepy doll for a second and think about the name on its own. Beautifully flowy and melodic, Annabelle slips right off the tongue. It almost sounds like bells ringing in the wind if you ask us!
4. Maisie
For parents wanting a kind and gentle name, Maisie is the perfect girl-next-door option you should consider. Can you even imagine a mean girl with this name? It doesn’t feel possible, right?
5. Lucille
With three Ls in this name, you just know it’s going to sound so lovely and light. It takes almost no effort at all to say the name Lucille, and we think all baby girls deserve as sweet as a name as this one to match their personalities.
6. Esther
Who said gentle baby names can’t contain harsh letters like T? Despite Esther being one of the “rougher” sounding names on this list, it’s every bit as sweet as the rest. We can immediately picture an incredibly kind-hearted and generous girl being associated with this one.
7. Amelia
It doesn’t get any more delicate than this. Amelia just oozes kindness, loveliness, and gentleness. We love how it rolls off the tongue nicely and sounds so soft all the way through. It’s sweet and simple, the perfect combination.
8. Rosalie
If Rose sounds a bit too outdated and floral for you, consider a more unique take on the name, Rosalie. Not only does it sound like you’re singing the name when you say it, but it’s a beautiful mix of modern meets classic.

9. Aubrey
No, not Audrey but Aubrey. This simple one-letter switch makes all the difference when we’re specifically looking at soft and gentle names. Something about this name just feels nicely rounded out; no harshness here!
10. Seraphina
You don’t just have to stick with the classics, feel free to test the waters and explore! Not all parents want what’s familiar and popular, some prefer more unique names that make their baby stand out. So if you want to bring together the best of both creative and gentle, Seraphina might be exactly what you’re looking for.
11. Daphne
Bridgerton fans, we know you’re already excited about this one. Name your daughter after the diamond of the season by calling them Daphne. There’s something unmistakably elegant and feminine about this name that makes it hard to hate.
12. Caroline
Regardless of whether we’re influenced by the hit song “Sweet Caroline,” this name is undoubtedly lovable. It just sounds so pure and innocent, we know many parents will be leaning towards this one. Having the song is just a nice bonus!
13. Delilah
Delilah simply sounds like a name that belongs to anyone who radiates positivity and compassion. There’s such a gentle quality to this name that makes it feel so endearing. It’s also a bit more unique, making it a great option for those craving something a bit different but still fitting for the times.
14. Bella
We know you might be tired of Kristen Stewart and the Twilight series, but you can’t deny, Bella is one of the most soft-sounding names around. No wonder Edward fell for her! It's a name fitting of any little princess.

15. Felicity
With this name meaning happiness or good luck, this alone might convince you to name your baby girl it. After all, what parent doesn’t want to bestow such joy on their child? Nothing wrong with a little superstition every now and then; there’s no harm in trying!
16. Penelope
Some parents prefer longer names, and if that’s you, Penelope is a great one to consider. We love the girly vibe this name gives off, yet it doesn’t sound childish or immature at all. It’s one your baby girl can easily grow into, turning from girly into feminine as she gets older.
17. Daisy
What’s more lovely than naming your daughter after this dainty flower? Evoking the same feelings as the flower, Daisy is so pretty-sounding and beautiful. Who could possibly complain about being named after something so gorgeous?
18. Hannah
Another awesome girl-next-door name, Hannah immediately puts a smile on your face. We imagine only the bubbliest of personalities are capable of having a name this brilliant and bright.
19. Charlotte
While this name is often associated with royalty, there’s nothing scary about it. In fact, Charlotte is such a pretty name that sounds incredibly melodic and flowy. We love how it’s able to balance sophistication and gentleness so beautifully well.
20. Gabriella
High School Musical fans, it’s finally your time. Gabriella doesn’t just sound nice, it evokes such heartwarming qualities too. It’s hard to put our tongues on it, but the name carries such warmth that makes it hard to ignore.
