Ok dd2 3 days old, we have scrapped our whole short list. Need your help. Can you post your fav girl's name or even better, pick some letters of the alphabet & tell me your fave name beginning with.

Sorry for random post, on iPhone with sleeping babe in arms.

P.S. I love Charis (inspiration from another thread), however my alltime favourite name is Clarissa.

Rebecca, Elen and Faye are also very nice.
