Hi all

I am looking for a short, punchy girls name, preferably with a vintage feel.

What do you think of the above, and have you any suggestions?

Thanks!

DD is Nina (yahboosucks to Solo). I only know excellent Ninas.

All your other names (apart from Mabel) were on our list of possibles. I think Lois rocks.

Sylvia is such a beautiful name.

I have decided that is what your daughter will be called. You may erase the other names from your list.

Kind regards,
Squoosh.

Not Sylvie, unless you're French!
Not keen on Lois - would make me think of Superman every time I heard it.

Lois...though biased
I have a Lois Smile

But we call her Lolly

Love Nina.

I absolutely love Sylvia. Beautiful. Maybe Pearl is something else you'd consider?

I like Audrey. Lois is nice, but doesn't say vintage to me.
Don't like Nina, but like Sylvie/Sylvia.
Mabel says old lady to me.

Like Audrey too, I should say, any comments on that welcome too. Was Keenan Mabel but think I am chickening out of that one!
