From your list I prefer Penelope.

All nice apart from Amber and Gracie is sweet but prefer Grace as it sounds less like a nn

I've always wanted a little girl named Penelope (Pea, Penny, Nelly).
Congratulations Flowers

Grace would be my favourite rather than Gracie. Otherwise Hariet.

Gracie definitely it's my 17yo dd's name

I also love Harriet.

They're all nice names but to be picky:

Grace/Gracie - a little too common now and doesn't sound right on a teenager if that makes sense.

Aria and Olivia - Same as above there will probably be lots at school etc.

Georgia is probably my fave.

The rest are OK but a bit bland and trying to be different.

Depends on your surname really but just on what you have posted: Georgia.

SuperBeagle · 24/02/2017 04:23

In order of preference:

  1. Georgia
  2. Penelope
  3. Amber
  4. Olivia - Lovely name, but done to death. Olive is lovely and a bit less popular/more quirky.
  5. Gracie - If this was Grace, it'd be my second choice. But Gracie is too nicknamey for my liking.
  6. Aria - Dislike. Very trendy, and will remind everyone of either Pretty Little Liars or Game of Thrones. Will date terribly.
  7. Harriet - Love Hattie, hate Harriet.

Harriet.

Aria is too popular.

Love Amber. Also like Aria and Harriet. Prefer Grace to Gracie, Gracie seems too much like a nn.

Gracie - love
Penelope - love
Harriet - like very much

The rest I'm not fussed about.

My favourite is Harriet. Followed by Amber and Penelope in that order

I don't like any of the others especially Aria.

Looks like Penelope, Georgia and Harriet are the favourites. I've spoken to DH and we're happy to whittle it down to that. Now to decide which one Confused we would like one middle name so maybe we could use two of the three names here?

Maybe Harriet Georgia or Georgia Penelope?
