Ava is lovely. Was our second-choice name for our DD

I do like Coco too, but can't stand Jo Whiley so the fact that her daughter is called Coco would be enough to put me off using it ...!

Cordelia - Coco

I really like Coco

Also like Ava but honestly I hear it EVERYWHERE (same as Eva, Evie, Eve)

Just trying to think what else could be shortened into Coco, if you prefer to do it that way..

Corinne
Coral (is that a name?!)
Connie (although I'm sure that is short for something in itself)
Colette

My dd knows a Chloe who gets called Coco.

Coco- hmm. Not a great baby name, fab stripper name though. I knew a grown-up who renamed herself Coco by deed poll. She had a chanel obsession. Came across as somewhat tacky and 'try-hard'

Ava- (you said 'honest' sorry!!) is too Myleene Klass.
The correct pronunciation of Eva in most of the world is Ava, and I like it better this way, in fact I love it pronounced Ava and spelt Eva. Reason mainly that Ava is too Avian flu and celebbed out.

Im not horrified by your names though they are nice

Coco immediately makes me think of the clown. It would also make a good name for a monkey.

Ava is lovely even though it is fairly popular. I don't think it's in the top ten though.

ava is nice

Coco is a bit too "celeb baby name"

Ava -I like it, I don't know very many but I can imagine it becoming popular

Coco - not good. Clown comes to mind. Or "a mug of hot cocoa".

Ava, I'm surprised it's common, its not common round here, I don't know ANY kids called Ava!

Coco makes me think of Coco Hernandez in Fame. Not sure whether that's a good or a bad thing...
