Our 4th DC (1DS, 1DD & 1DStS) is due in at the start of May and we're really struggling with girls names. We have the potential DS name narrowed down to two - William or Alexander.
I love, like seriously LOVE Charlotte (shortened to Lottie) however DH thinks it is too close to Scarlett which is the name of our DN. We have a complicated history with sister in law (DBIL's wife) who is a drama queen in the extreme.
Is it too close? They would probably only encounter each other at weddings, Christmas etc. because we live at the other end of the country and we like to keep our lives drama free and avoid SIL.
Other potential names
My choices:
Beatrice (Bea)
Alice
Phoebe
Meredith
Matilda (Tilly)
Catherine (Kitty, Kate etc.)
Vera (Family name but maybe too close to Violet, our daughter's name)
Josephine
Clementine
Celia
Rachel
Lydia
Penelope
Georgiana
DH choices:
Laura
Jane
Harriet
Elizabeth
Sally
Karen
Sophia
Poppy
Claudia
Nora
Luna
Darcy
Bertha (?)
It's true we have a while left but we're buying our first house, I have raised blood pressure, have some other issues at home and 3 DC bouncing around a too small house - I need NOT to be stressed by this.
