Hi

Dc3 is going to arrive via section on Tuesday morning next. We already have a girl Heather and a boy Alexander (Alex). A boy is going to be Luke, and I'm looking for advice on our girls list please.

Clara, Celine, Juliet, or Emse. What do you think?

When you say Emse, do you mean Esme?
I like Clara and Esme best out of those.

Good luck :)

I like Clara in principle, but never when I hear it in practice. It always makes girls seem a bit bovine. I don't like Celine.

I love Juliet and Esme (you did mean Esme??) I would have called DD Juliet but her first cousin had just been named Julia, and it's too close. Both beautiful names. I love your boys' names, too.

Congratulations and good luck!

I like Clare better than Clara. Dd has a friend called Esme and there are always pronunciation issues- Esmee v.Esmay.

Juliet is lovely- but I don't think you'll be able to stand against Julie. Julia?

Celine is a bit airy fairy when put with your other names....

Clara is a lovely name butI think with Heather and Alexander it would be better to avoid another er/a ending.

Clara without a doubt.

It's between Clara and Esme for me. Are you aware of the name meanings?

Clara is something like 'bright and shining' whilst Esme is 'esteemed and adored'.

Both heavenly, but Esme pips it by a post for me.

Good luck for your section. All the best x

Juliet is lovely

For what it's worth, Esme is getting very common popular, but if you don't mind that then go for it.
