DD's 1 & 2 both have gaelic/ celtic names and we would like to continue along similar lines...

We live in a part of Scotland where gaelic/ celtic names are the norm so no worries about pronounciation etc.

DD3 due any day now - Please help!

My dd2 is Carys so out of the names you mentioned I'd def go for that one! People always comment that it is a lovely name.

All lovely names...Freya my favourite

I also live in Scotland and really like Isla and Iona but both I think depend on surname because they run through and can sound a bit silly eg if your surname is Smith... Iona smith sound like I own a smith and Isla smith says isle of smith.

Carys is welsh is it not? Haven't heard of it in Scotland so it would be more unusual. Cora sounds very grown up pretty but not very little girlish
