Trying to decide on DC2's name and struggling. We have a DS called Jude and I love this name: not weird but not über-popular and suits all ages. This is the goal for DD but it's hard! Plus, Jude was my choice and DH reckons his vote should take precedence this time....

What are you honest thoughts on these and do you have any other suggestions?
The middle name will be Jane.

Tallulah (DH's favourite)
Delilah
Ophelia
Estella
Cora
Miranda

Thanks.

Ophelia is pretty and my favourite from your list.

Dislike Cora and Estella and I always worry about names with well known songs attached to them. The child will have it sung at them throughout their life.

Tallulah - very exotic sounding! Not to my taste.
Delilah - sweet, quite like. Couple of songs with it though.
Ophelia - my fave from the list. Very lovely indeed.
Estella - it's ok.
Cora - perfectly nice, but very different to the rest of your list.
Miranda - sounds a bit harsh to my ears.

Jane goes very nicely with them all.

Out of your list, my favourite is Cora. Don't like the others at all. Sorry.

I love Tallulah. Not keen on the others. Delilah just makes me think of the Tom Jones song.
