My choice, DH's choice and the kids' choice for Dd2 due any day now, in no particular order -

Nancy
Kitty
Marnie

I love all 3 but have slight reservations about them all individually.

Other considered and discarded choices include:

Bea/Beatrice
Leonie/Leonora/Leni
Agatha/Aggie
Sylvie
Cecilly/Cece
Violet
Eleanor/Nell
Maude
Adeline/Addie
Ramona
Willa
Dorothy/Dot/Dotty/Dory/Dorrie
Joni
Elsa
Frances/Francesca/Franny/Frankie
Harriet/Hester/Hattie/Hettie
Jeannie

Please help us decide, I'm worried she won't want to come out unless she has a name

Marnie!

Love Kitty, then Nancy, but Beatrice is also lovely

Marnie

Kitty or Marnie. Not keen on Nancy.

Would she consider donating it to the baby? If she has another middle name she might not mind. Sharing a name could be a nice bonding thing?

Thanks for the replies. Would normally go for the full name on BC and Kitty as nickname but one of DD1's middle names is Catherine (after MIL), so would feel a bit odd.

I love Marnie, it's so cute. I wouldn't choose Kitty as I think it's cute on a child, but not on an adult which eventually dd will be.

Marnie.'
Agree with outraged that kitty is too girly.

I like them all. My favourite is Marnie, lovely and really under used.

Kitty is nice, but I would go for Katherine and then Kitty as a nn because it's a bit little girly imo.

Nancy is nice as well.
