Philippa (pippa) (dh has been put off big time by pippa Middleton, thinks it will become popular and make people think of her)
jemima (my fave, dh hates)
alice (dh fave, I think a bit plain, I don't love it)
beatrice (I really like, dh not)
eliza (ditto above)
Josephine (we both like but not enough yet to say lets go for it)

these are all names that me and dh can't quite agree on!
We are now trying to come up with a new shortlist with 6 weeks to go!

Any other suggestions along similar lines please??
