Please elaborate on my shortlist of girls names.

[Shropitlikeitshot]

Phillippa
Eleanor
Beatrice
Phoebe
Annabelle

Above are the only girls names that I have come up with that haven't been vetoed. DH hasn't come up with any.

If it's a boy we are leaning towards Rupert.

He/She will be a sibling for Henrietta.

Please state your favourite and give me some ideas on other girls names I might like? Nothing too popular.

[avamiah]

Ava is a beautiful name and spelt with a "A".
I have always thought Thomas is a great name for a boy, (Tommy or Tom) for short.
Good luck

[megletthesecond]

Beatrice is my fave.

[DramaAlpaca]

My favourite from your list is Philippa (I'd go for the more traditional one 'l' in the middle).

The other names on your list are lovely & go well with Henrietta. I prefer Annabel to Annabelle - same pronunciation, looks less frilly.

Suggestions - Isabella came into my head first, but you did say not too popular!

Other ideas: Marianne, Clementine, Arabella or Imogen.

Phoebe or Annabelle are the only nice ones on that list that won't look like you're trying too hard

[Elephants25]

Annabelle is my favourite

[Maz2444466]

I really like Beatrice too but personally not so keen on the nickname Bea, but I think Eleanor shortened to Ellie is nice or Annabella to Anna. You may not like the shortened versions (as I know I don't for my DC) but I find kids love playing around with nicknames and re-identifying themselves so I'd go for sounds good when shortened too! Just my twopence, for what it's worth! :)

[Pemba]

Annabel (spelled like that) or Eleanor are lovely, and Phoebe is also nice. Not that mad on Philippa or Beatrice really.

[Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost]

Annabelle is by far the prettiest.

[Rainbowqueeen]

Love Annabelle and Phoebe and I think they both go nicely with Hennrietta.

[DorotheaHomeAlone]

I love Eleanor and also think Imogen would be a good fit for your style.

[avamiah]

Annabelle is only going to get shortened to Anna or Belle or Bell.

[queenoftheboys]

Great names! I have four boys and Eleanor was my girl's name for all of them, so that's obviously my favourite! Henrietta and Philippa were also on my list - you have excellent taste in names. Also like Annabel (prefer this spelling personally). Not a fan of Phoebe or Beatrice.

[BoBo90]

I love Beatrice with the nn trixie :) but dh isn't keen.

Also love Frances, Constance, Emmaliese, Felicity

[Wintersummerwintersummer]

I love Annabelle, Beatrice and Eleanor. But I am very biased in respect of all 3. Annabelle just nudges it for me as it is the "prettiest". I much prefer the Annabelle spelling though as Annabel looks unfinished to me. Xx

[Lizziedoll]

Phoebe gets my vote!

[capercaillie]

Love Philippa! In fact, I like all your names. I'd add Susannah to the list!

[merlottime]

Ursula
Isobel
Luisa
Lucy

[sonlypuppyfat]

Rupert as in the bear and Rigsby please don't

[Olbersparadox]

You must be me. All those names were on my list a few years ago (except for Annabelle). I love all those 4. I could be wrong but isn't Eleanor a bit popular? It is very lovely.
To be honest any of those will do.

[Justlikefire]

I like Annabelle best, always loved it.

Eleanor popular around here, 2 in dd's class and I know 2 more and also lots of Ellens for some reason.

[Shropitlikeitshot]

I'm not really an Eleanor fan, but I want a Nell and dislike the other Nell options. My father is Neil and is known to all as Nelly so it's a nod to him.

I'm totally at a loss with this and at 29 weeks DH is struggling to get involved in a serious conversation, it's frustrating. He has however just told me that he NEVER agreed to Annabelle!!!!!

My only other feeling is Busy (Elizabeth). Thoughts?
