Arabella.
Dd1's name is Arabella and we've just found out we're expecting dd2. We absolutely love dd1's name and can't imagine finding another we like quite as much. Very keen for suggestions of what might work. Thank you!

I think Beatrice goes the best.

Jemima's my favourite name at the moment and I think it goes brilliantly with Arabella. I've never been keen on Beatrice even though I know a lovely girl with the name!

I love Beatrice with Arabella, both such pretty names.

Beatrice goes beautifully with Arabella.

Also like Cecilia, Elizabeth, Eleanor, Susannah

Cordelia would be lovely.

I'm with Lilibet. Constance. The only Arabella I know has a younger sister called Constance. The names sound great together.

So many wonderful suggestion! Thank you! So far the I think I like Beatrice and Jemima the best. Which of these two do you think works better with Arabella?
Still also keen for other suggestions......
Goodness, I do find girls names hard! Boys names seem so much more straightforward IMO. Smile
