Got a boy's name picked (we think). Got lots of time left but just thinking about a girl's name. Got DD, Olivia, and would like something charming and elegant to go with it. Love old lady cool names like Molly and Maisie but two friends' snatched these already. Any more ideas? Thought of Isobel, Anna, Emily, Hannah, but would love lots of like-minded suggestions!

Molly, Maisie, Isobel, Anna, Emily, Hannah are not old lady cool names!!!! They are sweet-little-girl-everywhere names!!

For old lady cool I would think more along the lines of....

Agnes, Pearl, Martha, Maud, Iris, Jean.... erm, these are just the first obviousl ones that spring to mind, sure there's many more cooler ones but tis a little late for my brain cell!

good luck! and congratulations! what's your boy's name? old man cool??
