I really like Lacey and Libby. Really, really dislike the others though, sorry.

Don't like any of them I'm afraid. Sorry! Maybe Libby, as short for Elizabeth.

Ooo I love that spelling!!! I would definately spell it like that. My baby name book only spells it the way i put.

Does anyone know how to say Roisin? That's Irish isn't it?

DD2's Roisin

Naoise is nice too.

I think Liesha sounds like Lisa with a speech impediment..

Libby's cute. The rest sound like the cast of 90210.

Libby, short for Elizabeth, is fine - others are very chavvy

Report

Quite like Lainey, pet version of Elaine

Sparkletastic · 01/11/2008 16:04

All very common-sounding apart from Libby but obviously only as a pet-name for Elizabeth.

I am a total snob though

Marie

I'm not a chav and I don't think Libby or Brooke are the least bit chavvy. I hate it when people refer to names they wouldn't chose as chavvy. I don't like Elizabeth. I like Libby.

Probably best not to ask for opinions then.

Sorry, bar Libby, all the names you have chosen are pretty chavtastic.

CuppaTeaJanice · 02/11/2008 12:13

Liesha makes me think of that Craig from the first Big Brother trying to say Lisa!

Libby is the best of your choices but I'd put Elizabeth on her birth certificate.

It's a matter of opinion - you don't think they're chav and I do - but they're your choices so go with what you want.

god i hate the way 'chav' is rolled out here.

lisa is probably a nicer way to spell it though.
