How do I make sure the baby girl name I choose is easy to pronounce and spell?

You can choose from some common options like Mia (friendly), Ella (beautiful), Emily (eager or laborious), Grace (goodness), Jess (God exists), Lucy (light), Jen (fair one), and Molly (star of the sea).

Should I consider the popularity of a baby girl’s name when choosing one for my child?

It would be best to start your baby name search by looking at the popularity of different names. This will be helpful if you desire a trendy name for your child.
