Namechanger...

We have a dd - Constance (Connie)

Struggling for another girls names.

Like Annabel, Annie, Hannah, Clementine, Clemency, Eleanor, Rose, Ruth, Susannah. But none quite right.

People think if I like these I'll like Verity and Felicity but they really are not for me.

Am sure the perfect name is out there but not found it yet.

Any suggestions... (please)

I have no idea of "names style" but I love your DD's name and most of the names on your list, so here are the names that were on ours:

Antonia (now DD's name)
Honoria
Sybil
Octavia
Adelaide, Adele
Violet/Violette
Suzanne
Zelie
Astrid
Josephine
Claire
Louise
Eugenie
Berenice
Domitille
Mathilde, Mathilda
Raphaelle
Alexandrine
Elisabeth
Victoire, Victorine

Constance and Adelaide is my favorite pairing out of these.

Good luck finding your perfect name - it is so hard!

Rosetta?

Your dd's name is beautiful as are your shortlisted names- you'll choose something beautful I'm sure. It feels like such a responsibility doesn't it?

My DD is Ruth, and I love Annabel but it clashes with our surname Sad. Perhaps our tastes are quite similar? We also have on the list for DC2:

Katrina
Cressida (our favourite, but sounds a bit wrong with our surname - but we might get over it)
Imogen
Hazel
Lucy

I love Elsa, but DH hates it.

I also like Sarah, but know too many Sarahs my age so would feel a bit odd. Maribel is lovely, but just like Annabel clashes with our surname unfortunately.

Do you want some thing that shortens well, like Constance does, or do you not mind?

My ideas are

Emmeline
Cordelia
Lydia
Penelope
Millicent
Fenella
Francine
Devora
Araminta
Belle
Nina

Of your choices I like Constance and Annabelle best.

How about Constance and Clarabelle? Or Constance and Florence?
