Dd2 due any day now and we are still struggling to find "the" name. We both quite like Tabitha and Jemima but aren't 100% sure. Any comments and other suggestions very welcome! Thanks.

Both very nice names. How about Jessamy? Bethany? Stella? Good luck!

I love both those names...you can't go wrong.

Would also suggest Rosalie, Vivienne, Marianne, Margot, Cora.

I think they all have a classy, vintage feel to them too.

Good luck!

Tabitha is nice as is Clementine. My favourite girls names are Emily and Imogen.
Congratulations on your new DD.

The first name that came to mind was Matilda. I like Tabitha though. Jemima reminds me of the doll from Playschool!

I prefer Tabitha, but I think the most important thing is that you love the name you choose. You'll say it A LOT Wink

Friends are trying to talk me into Tabitha nn Kitty at the moment. I love it but don't know if I'm brave enough.

Jemima is nice but I'd be anxious about the Puddleduck thing. The Jemima I was at school with got that nickname/teasing Sad

I love Juliet, or Guinevere nn Jenny. DH vetoed Agatha.

The Puddleduck thing doesn't concern me as I don't think it's an association the younger generation would necessarily make (and I personally don't think it's bad association anyway!) My Dh seems to prefer Jemima. I really like both and keep wavering between the two!
Some excellent additional suggestions above to confuse us even further! Do keep them coming, very much appreciated!
