'Did you get Honor?'

'Everyone got Honor!'

All I hear with this name. Sorry!

OP, my DD1 is Honor and when expecting DD2 I was absolutely stumped as Honor has always been my favourite female name. I do know how you are feeling. DD2 name I liked, but not with the same passion (if that is the right turn of phrase) that I had with Honor. It has, however, grown on me so now I would say I love both of my daughter's names, equally.

Oooh Liberty is AMAZING!
I would say Unity, but that's too Mitford.
