David Cameron has a daughter called Florence - does that put you off?

Amelia is lovely but at or near the top of the most popular girls' names.

Esme is the name of the vampire mum in Twilight.

Think I like Phoebe and Matilda best (probably Phoebe best as I don't know any).

From your list, I'd probably choose Amelia Florence.

Good luck & congratulations! Smile

I love all of them :)
in order:
Phoebe
Florence
Esme
Matilda [a bit popular nowadays]
Amelia

Amelia or Phoebe.

absentmindeddooooodles · 05/09/2013 13:44

Phoebe
Florence
Matilda

Have a family member called phobes and it gets shortened to phoebes and fee. Just thought id add that.

I love Amelia. Phoebe just reminds me of Friends (though that isn't a bad thing!), Matilda of the little French girl, Esme is a fortune teller, and Florence is a Great Aunt of my DP.

Due

mrspaddy · 05/09/2013 13:39

Snap!! I am did Monday too... How are you getting on. I love all those names. Think Esme is beautiful. I love Amelia too.. It is very popular, but that doesn't matter either.

LovelyWeatherForDucks · 05/09/2013 13:38

I'd go for Florence

CharlieAlphaKiloEcho · 05/09/2013 13:36

I vote Phoebe.

But I also love Matilda too.

not decided on middle name- thought we probably use one of those as middle also.

choccy- we actually love 'belle'- but used this on the dog last year!

Choccyhobnob · 05/09/2013 13:32

I vote Phoebe, it's beautiful, shame we've already used it on our cat Grin

I like Florence, Amelia and Phoebe of your list. Have you chosen a middle name?
