So, I'm only 5 months pregnant and already I'm feeling incredibly flustered with the thought of the pressure of choosing a name!

Both my husband and I agreed on a boys name, so we were kind of hoping for a boy. Then I went for the 20 week scan, and we're having a girl!

For a girl, we both liked Olivia, but as its second most popular, and has been for the past 6 years! This really bothers me but he's oblivious that this is an issue!

I was just looking for some more opinions really on my other choices, which are...
Sophia
Willow
Harper
Heidi
Sienna
Penelope
Maddison

My list just keeps growing and ruling some out is getting harder!
I'd love any help!

I love all the names on your list aside from
Penelope and Maddison.
Heidi and Harper ars the nicest. I'm surprised Heidi isn't a log more popular, but I suppose that's a good thing

Lavinia is close to Olivia but much less common.

I really dislike Willow, Harper, Sienna and Maddison.
I think Sophia is a bit played out. Not sure about Heidi.
Penelope is very nice.
One of my current faves is Genevieve (pronounced Jenna-Veev). It has the potential for Evie, Gen, Gene, Genevie etc as nicknames. It's a beautiful old name that still manages to sound current and is rarely heard.

From your list I like Sophia, Madison and Sienna. How about Bianca or Lana?

It's down to personal choice and also depends on your last name. I personally like the name Heidi but it wouldn't sound nice with my surname. Also think about the initials - I have a friend called Tim and his initials are TIM and he hates that! good luck!

Willow, Heidi and Penelope are my favourites from your list
