Am 38 weeks pregnant with DC2 who is a girl and still undecided. We have a short list but although we like them all (so no need to tell me if you don't!) we also have reservations about each of them so still keep thinking that the must be another, more perfect name out there.

We really like names that end in '-a'. Suggestions would be very gratefully received please! The middle name will be Jane and our DS is Jude, if that helps. We don't want anything too common so no Isabella, Amelia etc. Many thanks.

Our short list:

Estella Jane
Tallulah Jane
Delilah Jane
Lara Jane

Anusha but then I have a bias

Although my personal preference would be Estella I think Delilah is the best fit with Jude - keep the biblical connection.

My 3 all end in a, the youngest is Katia . Was possibly going to be Katherina, pronounced Kat not Kath.
