Which of the above do you like?
And any middle name suggestions? We like Alice but that doesn't go with Lois (which is my current fave).

I like Imogen - it's cool in it's own right and you can shorten it to the very gorgeous Immy/Immie. It has a nice meaning, too ('Image of her mother').

Imogen Alice sounds good, too x

All great names, I think I like Esther best though.

Other middle names could be

Charlotte
Anna (goes well with Lois I think but perhaps not the other two)
Rachel

Esther and Imogen are nice (I prefer Esther). I really don't like Lois - it sounds hard and cold for some reason.

Margot as a middle name?

I like Esther best, then Lois.

I also love Anna and Rachel. I realise I am just parroting Allthesanityinme. She is a woman of excellent taste Grin

I love Lois - it was top of my list for both of my daughters but for some reason OH wasn't keen. I like Esther but am not over fond of Imogen. What about Lois Kate or Lois Mary?

There seem to be a lot of Imogens about at the moment.

I love all 3 of them, but I would pick Lois.

Ooh I love them all.

Lois Fuschia
Lois Felicity
Lois Miriam
Lois Charlotte

Esther Helen (because of the joint meaning Smile - but too many 'e's perhaps)
Esther Jane

Imogen Tamar
Imogen Charlotte

Great suggestions here. Thanks. Mary is both mine and DH's mother's middle names so maybe we'll go with that.

Ester Jane goes nicely with our surname too.

Or even Esther It'd help if I could spell the name we give out new child!

I love Jane, I think it's underused and wonderful.
