Me and DH love all the above with the exception of Beth which DH isn't truly sold on..... yet Wink.

Just wondered what your opinions are...

I too love Isla and Katherine - but got to be Katherine with a K [buwink]

Isla or Katherine.

I don't like Amy or Beth. Too Little Womenish.

Like all except Beth.

Love Katherine/Kate but it may be very popular this year.

Beth gets my top vote, then Amy, then Katherine (lower simply because of the roal connection) and Isla last (just because it makes me think of Isla Fisher, who I find incredibly annoying)

Love Isla and Amy. I doubt Isla would be shortened. I know someone who spells it Ysla.

Beth is surely always short for Elizabeth?

Bet Katherine, Kate and Catherine fly up the baby names tables this year mind you!

does anyone think that Isla might be shortened to the rather unattractive 'Eye' Not sure how I feel about a name with no obvious shortening as she might be know as something awful that we hadn't thought of!

I agree with your husband.

All lovely but not keen on Beth.
