What do people think of the name "River" for a girl? And what middle name(s) go with it?



Answer:
I know someone who has a daughter named River Elizabeth! I think it's pretty, even though I'm not a big fan of nature-y names.
River Phoenix
it's very pretty. i like river elizabeth, river leanne, & river kathryn.
I dont really care for it really unique though maybe River Joanna
River? I don't like it. She would get made fun of and you don't want a little girl that comes home and cries! If you're dead set on it though a few names that I could see going with it are: River Peyton, River Leigh, River Mae...I don't know because that's an odd name to think of things that sound cute. Maybe you should consider River as a middle name.
I am not a fan just because everyone will still think of River Phoenix. I would use it as a middle name. How about Chelsea or Kaylee?*
River is cutee. Personally I like it better for a boy. But For River Leigh-anne or Lauren
Not a big fan. If you like the idea of River why not try a different name meaning river. Like Kendahl which means f/ the RIver Kent. Or Sabrina/Zabrina/Zabryna which is Celtic/Gaelic for f/ the River Severn. I like Kendahl Michelle myself. ;)
I don't like the name period. Think of someting else for your little girl
It is very pretty!! Some middle names might be:
1. Jade
2. Marie
3. Rose
4. Alise
5. Leigh

Hope these help!!
I like it but, I would use it as a middle name.

I have a unique name that I still get teased about.
It would be best to not put a girl through that kind of ridicule.

Good luck.
Cute...

River Mari
I really like it, but my fiance doesn't so I had to cross it off my list. I kind of like River Joss and River Cassandra.
No a river is a geological feature not a name! You have to think of her as a 40 year old called river. It doesnt matter how many times you say it its not a nice sounding name.
i like it it is really beautiful when someone hears the name river i think it is nice and soothing and for a middle name how about River Jane and then your last name.
I really like the name River for a girl or a boy. Since it's used more frequently for boys, I would go with a feminine sounding middle name so that people would know it's a girl's name.
I really like the name River it is very pretty and original. I just think that it might be hard to find a good middle name that goes with it. Congrats on the baby and best of luck to you in the future.
River Emma
River Mia
River Star
I really like River. Although it's sometimes used for boys, I think it also works quite nicely for a girl.

And as for it being "a geological feature, not a name", many, many names actually are references to places, occupations, and physical characteristics because names were for a very long time meant to describe individuals. If a person lived near a river, they might be named for it.
VERY CUTE IM NOT SURE OF A MIDDLE NAME THOUGH SORRY
I think it is cute...I would almost go with Phoenix as a middle name after the late actor. I think it goes best w/River.
river jane or river may these are cute
I don't like River as a name. Any reason for river, or do you like the unusual. How about Rowan or Riane? Both are unusual but still have a feminine and classic quality without sounding hippie.

Good Luck
