I've just given birth to an adorable DD2, but DH and I are struggling to decide on a name to go with Arthur and Edward. We'd like a classic name(but not old-fashioned) that goes well with Arthur and Edward. Please help!

Thank you for all your suggestions!

I'm liking:
Alexandra/Alexandria
Evelyn
Florence
Helena (but I only like it pronounced He-lane=ah not Hell-en-ah)
Imogen
Louisa

Middle names will be Rose(my mother) Marguerite(DH's mother)
More suggestions wecome!

Emma was the only queen of England to be married to 2 kings.

Also, classic (and vaguely royal)

  • Helena
  • Caroline
  • Eleanor
  • Marguerite/Margaret
  • Mary / Maria
  • Catherine
  • Alexandra
  • Elizabeth
  • Anne/ Anna
