What other girls names would I like?
love Ruby but it doesn't go with out surname (which is a verb kind of name so it reminds me of mockney slang!) Any ideas? I also like Clara but I think it's going to be a very popular name and as ds' is unusual they don't "go"

Ruby is also a very popular name. It was 15th most popular in 2014. Clara isn't even in the top 100, although the amount of times it is mentioned in Mn you'd think it was top 5 . It could of course do an Isla and massively rise over a short period of time. But anyway, to answer your actual question

Cora
Eloise
Freya

Love Cora. Would like to use it but SIL is Ciara and they sound too similar to each other

Our surname is very rare so don't want to out myself but two syllables starts with a w.
I love violet and is a relatives name but got it into my head with our surname it sounds like violent (could be hormones doing that tho )
I like Lily ,stI'll like Clara, I know a cora but she's ruined the name a bit....
thank you for ideas so far though!
