So possible names I'm liking if DC2 is a girl:

Anna
Amber
Kitty
Marcy
Marnie
Marley
Nola (possible nn Noely?)

What do you think? I reckon Marnie is about to explode in popularity, as it is a character from that Girls show and Lily Allen picked it for her daughter; also apparently it's now one of the most looked-up names on Nameberry. So that puts me off that a bit. I have a very common name for someone of my generation and I got tired of always being one of two or three in my class at school, I would like to avoid that for my DD if possible.

I also like 'surname' names, like Taylor, but will they seem dated in 20 years?

DS is Gabriel, by the way.

PS I was on a thread earlier about our fave names for potential babies when we were 16, I said Gabriel for a boy (from Far From The Madding Crowd), DH didn't go for it alas.

I love Marnie too but next of all Amber, Kitty and Anna.

I love Marnie and Anna. Nola makes me think of New Orleans (known as NOLA - New Orleans, Louisiana)
