Due in 5 days and still can't decide. I love to hear everyone's top 5. Mine are:

Claudia
Eliza
Alice
Georgia
Rosalyn

I can't seem to make any decisions and it may not be any of the above :)

Typo: with nice MEANINGS, I mean!

dailygrowl · 29/09/2014 01:47

Irene, Sophie/Sophia, Clemence, Helen, Lydia. All either with nice names or an illustrious predecessor. Sometimes it can be difficult to be sure before the baby is born but once you see her, it becomes very clear which name it should be. You do have some time before you need to register the birth any way, so it's not necessary to have it ready for the hospital/midwife Smile

However, if I were ever to have girls, I would use biblical names to fit the theme with my ds's. (We have one old testament name and one new. Dp felt 2 old testaments would be too much......
I like
Rachel
Rebecca
Naomi
Bethany (but not Beth)
Elizabeth

Bagoffrogs · 28/09/2014 19:52

Tallulah
Ava
Poppy
Amber
Millie

Two of these are my DDs but couldn't use my absolute fave as surname clashes.

It's so hard to just choose 5! My long list currently has around 20 names on it! DH is being very unfair and saying no to most of them!

My personal 5:

Vivienne (adore but he HATES)
Ottilie
Cecily (really doesn't work with surname)
Madeleine
Verity

DH (just about) approved 5:

Alice
Emily
Phoebe
Juliet
Matilda
