Hi all. We are having a baby girl (very soon) and we want a name that is neither really common where she will be one of 6 in her class nor a name that is too strange/bullying fodder, if that makes sense. We aren't posh, upper middle class or rich, so don't want a name that sounds like we are trying to be either :)

So far our shortlist is..

-Matilda
-Elodie
-Sophia
-Eloise
-Ariya
-Felicity

None have any real "connection" ie not grandma's name etc. Just names we like.

Any thoughts / other suggestions?

Also Ariya is interesting but I think most people will hear 'Maria' when it's said and that may mean a lifetime of correcting people...

Love Matilda as name of my 7 year old DD.

Sophia is a bit too popular. Elodie becoming more so; would avoid both if you're looking for something unique.

Like Eloise.
