Girls names - opinions?

[DaisyZoo]

Maria
Anna
Alexandra

???

We want something fairly classic, feminine, not too girly.

[Pinkjenny]

I like all of them.

[DaisyZoo]

Bump.

Please!

[TwoWindyDays]

Great names

[rosealbie]

I don't mind any of them, just not really my cup of tea if i'm honest.

Out of the three I would go for Alexandra but for me, it would have to be Alex.

[TwoWindyDays]

in fact you could use a couple of them
Alexandra Maria has a nice ring to it

[Majeika]

Anna

ds would have been annabel

[Jackstini]

Like Alexandra best - love Alex as a shortened version.

[VictorianSqualor]

I like Alexandra, I had Alexandra/Alexander on ym short list for DC3, it was a boy so I used Alexander.

I prefer Annabel to Anna, not keen on Maria.

[3andnomore]

all fab...Maria is my favourite though

[branflake81]

I like Anna and Alexandra, not too keen on Maria.

[babyinbelly]

Would prefer marie to maria
Like Anna but wouldn't call my child it.
Alexandra is ok but again would have to call Alex.

Knew someone called Alexa which I think is nice and a bit of a twist

[dinkymum]

DSIL is Anna Maria which I always thought was really pretty, Alexandra's nice too!

[frazzledoldbag34]

Not keen on Maria at all.
Anna is lovely.
Alexandra is OK
I also like Annabel and Arabella (irrelevant but true)

[Hulababy]

Of your three I prefer Anna.

[jennifersofia]

Anna, but that is the name of dd3 (4 mths), so I am biased.

[LynetteScavo]

Anna.

Not too keen on Maria, and you have to bear in mind Alexandra with at some point get shortend Alex.

[theowlwhowasafraidofthedark]

Love Anna and Maria

[LynetteScavo]

I do like Anna Maria!

[mazzystar]

My name is Maria [inadvertently outs self] and I am sung to [West Side Story, Sound of Music, Blondie or Ave] at least once per day. Used to hate it as a kid, but cheers me up now [sign of age]

I really like Anna, less keen on Alexandra.

[reginaphilangy]

I think they're all lovely

My favourite is Anna and least favourite is Maria if i had to chose.

I don't like the shortening of Alex for Alexandra, but Ally is lovely.

[Weegiemum]

All of them are nice.

In order

Anna
Alexandra
maria.

But I wouldn't be at any.

Hey! A name thread I don't go at!

First time?

[Weegiemum]

Alternatives - if you want them?

Rachel
Caroline
Louise
Elaine
Katherine (and variations)
Jessica
Emma
Sarah
Claire

etc!

[HonoriaGlossop]

Anna is lovely, really pretty - but unusual, I haven't met any Anna's at DS pre-school or school.

Along those lines I also think Alice is gorgeous.

[woo12woo]

Heaven spelled backwards, really pretty name Nevaeh, heard it the other day, it is different, feminine and pretty!
