Lily and Charlotte. Lily is definitely in the top ten most popular names at the moment, it wouldn't bother me, but some people are concerned about names being too commonly used.

Laila - this is so pretty, and 7 years ago when I was pregnant it was on my list. Leila. However, now glad, as there are Leilas, Lilys, LIlas, lolas. It's SO of the moment. L vowel another L vowel names are supersaturating the world.

Lily - as above. Prefer Daisy. Camellia? Maggie short for Magnolia? Poppy short for Penelope?

Izzy - not too keen. Isabel is better but again I think there are a few too many of them. Although it is a pretty name and very classic. I prefer Annabel with Annie for short than Isabel with Izzy for short.

Charlotte - ok, bit crusty but I love Lottie.

Lottie is the best!

Love Isobel/Isabel but not keen on Izzy
Lily is OK
Laila/Layla horrible - very popular all of a sudden

Laila- really not keen on this name- sorry.

Lily- like it

Izzy- like, but think it would be better as a nickname for Isabel/Isabella.

Charlotte- really like

So overall, Charlotte IMO

Love Izzy but again there are quite a few here.
Love Charlotte - nn Lottie if you want a shorter name

Charlotte, a lovely, classic name.
All the others are just too popular at the moment.

Another vote for Charlotte. I always wanted to be called this.

Notalone · 11/08/2009 20:05

Charlotte and Izzy for me though Isabelle would be even nicer and she could still be called Izzy
