All girls names we like seem to be ruled out by having already been used in our gigantic family. Our other DD is Alice.

I like Orla.
My DH likes Miranda best.
Lucy is our compromise name.

What do you think? Running out of time...

Lucy - very pretty
Orla - a bit boring
Miranda - don't like this at all

Orla lovely. Ditto Miranda. Lucy is a bit dullsville.

FixItUpChappie · 29/10/2013 16:28

I've always been very fond of the name Miranda. Orla would be my second choice.

Saminthemiddle · 29/10/2013 16:05

Orla, then Lucy, I think Miranda will date.

Saminthemiddle · 29/10/2013 16:05

Orla

grizzabellia · 29/10/2013 16:03

Orla. Lucy is a bit dull. Miranda is just too frilly!

Orla.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 29/10/2013 14:52

I like Lucy best.

cavell · 29/10/2013 14:49

I like all of your names. I think Lucy sounds best.

Charotte31 · 29/10/2013 14:43

Orla

bundaberg · 29/10/2013 14:42

Miranda

isitme1 · 29/10/2013 14:42

Miranda
Just coz I love miranda hart lol

SugarMiceInTheRain · 29/10/2013 14:37

I like Orla best but agree that Lucy goes better with Alice. How about Lucy Orla?

NadiaWadia · 29/10/2013 14:26

Miranda and Lucy are both lovely names. I don't like Orla particularly, if you want an Irish name there are much prettier ones like, say, Saoirse.

SpottedDickandCustard · 29/10/2013 14:17

Miranda. Love it!

UriGHOULer · 29/10/2013 14:16

Lucy.

Thurlow · 29/10/2013 14:02

Orla.

Allalonenow · 29/10/2013 13:59

Miranda is beautiful.
Lucy is pretty.

Idespair · 29/10/2013 13:59

Lucy and Alice go well together.

Littlecherublegs · 29/10/2013 13:58

I like Orla as a name best but actually think Lucy goes best with Alice.

How about Lucy Orla Miranda???!

onetiredmummy · 29/10/2013 13:51

Miranda then Lucy

Orla as a middle name
