...names again! Very early days with DC2, feels slightly tempting fate to talk about it, but no-one in real life outside immediate family knows I'm pregnant, so this is a bit of self-indulgence.
Anyway, DH and I seem to have already used the only girl's name we both like with DD1 and are feeling deeply uninspired. I love: most virtue names but we've already used one; as well as Marianne (Leonard Cohen AND Jane Austen!!) and Rosanna (good friend's name, and I've always thought it was gorgeous) which have both been vetoed by DH for being two names spliced together. He's potentially persuadable on Susannah which I've recently become slightly fixated on, but he doesn't love it.
I also love Blythe, which is never going to happen, and quite like Tabitha, which might...
The runner up choice last time was Martha, which we both still love, but close friends have since used it which I think might rule it out. We both also love Eva, but everyone I know has a niece called Eva so I don't really want to use it.
Looking for traditional, British or biblical (ie not names strongly identified with cultures we don't have a connection to); not too frilly; ideally not too overused, though we ended up ignoring that with DD1 because we loved her name so much. Sorry, have rambled on for ever - any thoughts?!
