I LOVE Isla, but it rhymes with our surname, which is why DD was Iona - I just want to see a name and love it, if you see what I mean!

my name is Hazel so i am a bit biased, but have to say i love it and it's still quite rare, i really enjoy having such an unusual and pretty name. is that arrogant?...wait i don't care!

otherwise i like Elizabeth because you can do so much with it.

but really we're in the same position, we're expecting a girl and can't find/agree on any names we like.

Puremince · 22/08/2012 16:49

Lucy Elizabeth
Lucy Martha
Lucy Carys.

All lovely.

Puremince · 22/08/2012 16:45

We have an Alexander (Alex) and we also have a Lucy. Since having ours we've met another two similar sibling pairs, Alex and Lucy and Alexander and Lucy-Jane. So the consensus is that Alex and Lucy go well together!

Iona, Alex and Lucy - perfect!!

DessieLou · 22/08/2012 16:38

I don't think it'd be wrong to only have the one middle name. I really like Hazel (OH says no Sad) and Carys is lovely. What number is that in the statistics? Also on our list is Emily (too popular?) and Ariella. I love the name Martha but our surname starts with M so it doesn't sound right.

other thought is that other 2 DC have 2 middle names... would it be wrong for baby to only have one middle name?

I have a Phoebe cat.

And a Meg (without the -an).

Tis fate.

Failing that, Alice?

Flosie1989 · 15/08/2012 22:11

Oh and Edie which is short for Edith but a lot of people are just using Edie nowadays - love it

Flosie1989 · 15/08/2012 22:11
