I am only just 5 weeks along, but very excited Smile we will not be finding out the sex of this baby (we didn't with DD either) and already have a boys name we are agreed upon, girls names we have been discussing are:

Celeste Isis
Juliette Isobel
Esme Anastasia

I also love Freya, but the popularity of this name is putting me off.

I love Juliette Isobel!

My fave is Juliette Isobel. I like Celeste but not as much and I really like Esme but think it's getting overly popular.

Onyabije I do too, I think it flows so well and is pretty sounding, also seems to be pretty underused now, DH is a bit more reluctant on this one, so if I really want it I need to talk him round.

Love Celeste and Anastasia.

I liked celest but then someone pointed out to me its a brand of contraceptive pill which put me off.

Therefore I would go for Juliette

Juliette Isis

Freya. Is it really that popular? I haven't met any. I know several Esmes on the other hand. Juliet is pretty - I prefer the less frilly spelling.

Esme Anastasis is a bit Twilight meets 50 shades. Others are great.

Celeste Isis - both very nice names but there are four "s" sounds with the two names together, which I think is too much
Juliette Isobel - lovely
Esme Anastasia - not keen on Esme, but Anastasia very pretty

Juliette is pretty.

miffybun73 · 30/07/2013 22:16

Juliet Isis ( Juliet without the extra te)
