Not preg yet , just idle curiosity :)

DH and I have always planned on using Eleanor/a for a DD if we ever have one. Eleanora was his grandmother's name and I love it. :) I like just Eleanor too.

I'd planned on Eleanora Josephine for a long time (my mother is Jody) but now am also considering:

*Eleanor/a Mable (just like it, plus my beloved late grandmother was Melba and I like the reworking)

*Eleanora Marie (a bit boring but flows well and my other grandmother is Helen Marie)

*Eleanora Suzanne (MIL is Suzanne)

*Eleanor Susannah (love Susannah and it could still be after MIL)

I'm obviously very bored :o but I do like to get my ducks in a row.

Ds would have been Elinor Jayne. Bit icky about the Jayne spelling now so glad he was a ds!

I like Eleanora Louise.

Are you planning to spelling Mable like that and not Mabel?

I like Eleanora Suzanne or Eleanor Susannah from your list.

Either spelling Fimbo . Mabel does look less like table, which is a bonus. :)

Those are lovely but I'd like to use something with a family connection. Pilates I love Jane, Claire, and Kate. My aunt has four daughters and those are three of them :) She also has an Emily and two DS named Joseph and Ben. She's got all the good names! :)
