Struggling to find a name that feels right. Love DD1's name so feel like we should love this one too...

Petra
Anya
Etta

Thoughts please :)

[catsofa]

Etta, for Etta James!

[306235388]

EttA is lovely

[PickledSprout]

Worried its a bit...terrorist organisation! ETA

[SomeSunnySunday]

Love Petra and Anya. Less keen on Etta, but not sure why.

Have you considered Greta?

[Middleagedmotheroftwo]

Petra. Definitely

[ralinax294]

Love Anya, Petra is okay, don't really like Etta.

[manicinsomniac]

Love Anya and Etta. Not so keen on Petra.

Are you Russia/East European? How about Mila?

Or, similar to your choices:

Aria, Ayla, Aya, Ava, Ada, Asha, Asia, Amy, Anna, Annie, Amna, Alba, Aphra, Enya, Effie, Erin, Esher, Emma, Eva, Efa, Ella, Pippa, Posy, Priya

[DonkeysDontRideBicycles]

Like all three, loved the name Anya for years, but of the three I like the look of Etta for originality.

[TempsPerdu]

Anya would be my pick. It's pretty, and familiar but not overused. Etta is nice, but makes me think of ETA (I did a Spanish degree, though, so might just be me!) and I don't like Petra - sounds harsh to me.

[PickledSprout]

Thanks everyone.

No not Russian/eastern European. Just seem to be drawn to these kinds of names! DD1 is Nina.

[mummybare]

I like them all, probably in this order:
Etta
Anya
Petra.

[Orangeisthenewbanana]

Anya is my favourite off your list.

What about Talia, Jana, Julia, Freya (might be too popular?), Maya?

[MerryMarigold]

Cleo

Verity

[onepotatotwopotato]

Love Nina, OP

What about Vita?

[PickledSprout]

Pondered Maya a few weeks ago but DH not keen.

Like Vita but DH just raised an eyebrow. Turns out he is harder to please than I am!

Sme lovely suggestions but most we can't use due to already knowing someone with that name or similar.

Freya was the name I decided to call my daughter when I was 10! Unfortunately it's a bit too popular now I think.

[mathanxiety]

How about:
Lydia
Leah
Zoe
Tess or Tessa
Lara
Laura
Daphne
Chloe
Clara
Hazel
Edith
Iris

[mathanxiety]

And Juliet

[MerryMarigold]

I don't know, but I find Petra a bit doggy.

Layla

Annika

Lara

[Guin1]

All three are good, strong names, easy to pronounce and spell. And they all go well with Nina. Three great choices, whichever you choose!

[MummyBeerest]

Etta is great

[squeak2392]

None of them are my sort of names, as such, but I think I prefer Anya. I like Petra but it seems a bit clunky.

Etta looks pretty, but I can't help thinking it's just the end of some other name... Julietta, Henrietta, Rosetta.

[PickledSprout]

I worry that Petra would be shortened to Pet. Not keen on that. We live up North so is quite a popular "pet" name.
