jenster007 · 12/01/2015 02:23

ok so i know we've had months to decide but we're stuck between our final four names! My c section is today and the poor girl will currently be without a name. I already have a boy called George, surname begins with R.

So......
Matilda (Tilly)
Annabel
Ella
Lola

Any input would be great!
thank you!

Aw I love Lola out of your list . Hope all went well

TempsPerdu · 13/01/2015 13:57

Matilda would be my top pick, with Annabel second. Hope everything went well!

How did you get on OP? Hope all is well and you're enjoying snuggles with...

trottietrue · 12/01/2015 13:03

I really like Matilda and Annabel but I prefer Matilda.

Good luck today and congratulations

roastpots · 12/01/2015 12:07

Not so keen on Annabel or Lola. But I like Ella and Matilda. Good luck - enjoy the new born snuggles!

Deerhound · 12/01/2015 11:57

Matilda!

All are lovely though

Good luck!

Showy · 12/01/2015 11:42

I have a Mathilda who was born by cs 7 and a half years ago. She is Tilda though. Can't stand Tilly but that's because I don't like cutesy names in general.

Annabel is pretty too. Annie is great. Ella and Lola are just a bit meh. Ella is soooooo popular too.

Good luck!

WhereHas1999DissappearedToo · 12/01/2015 11:37

Great choices! My favourite would be Ella, closely followed by Annabel.

George4567 · 12/01/2015 10:59

Matilda.

cosmicglittergirl · 12/01/2015 10:46

Matilda is very nice and you can use several nn. I really like Tilda. Second choice Annabel.

DramaAlpaca · 12/01/2015 10:41

Matilda or Annabel are nicest with George, IMO.

Don't rush into choosing, wait & see which name suits her best.

Good luck!

DancingLola · 12/01/2015 10:40

Matilda is lovely, but why not wait & see what name you think suits her most once she's arrived? You might find she really 'looks' like one of your choices.

Wafflenose · 12/01/2015 10:38

Annabel

pintofmilk · 12/01/2015 10:08

Good luck with the section today!

As someone else said, don't rush into giving your baby a name. My DD didn't have a name for 2 weeks after she was born, drove my Mum crazy but you have to be sure it's the right one. We were stuck between 2 names and took it in turns to call her different one each day.

My favourites are MATILDA then ANNABEL Smile

HollyBen · 12/01/2015 09:21

Matilda from your list. Good luck with th section x

PestoStormissimos · 12/01/2015 09:11

Matilda

GotToBeInItToWinIt · 12/01/2015 09:08

Annabel Smile

BrambleBee · 12/01/2015 09:02

Matilda (nn Tilly) or Annabel (nn Annie) are both lovely. Good luck today, hope it goes well. Let us know what you decide!

RiverTam · 12/01/2015 08:45

Ella, but I'm biased. Annabel is too 80s sloane for me, and whilst Matilda is nice, Tilly and Matty are awful. I like Lola as well.

Zsazsabinks · 12/01/2015 08:40

Matilda! Good luck.

Ems1812 · 12/01/2015 08:29

Matilda is lovely :) not so keen on Annabel, all it reminds me of is the Baby Annabel dolly I had as a child!

butwhythistimemummy · 12/01/2015 08:28

I have Matilda (Tilly) and George! Definitely the best!

burgatroyd · 12/01/2015 08:25

You have six weeks to choose. There is no need to rush.

Matilda as I don't know any.

BlueStarsAtNight · 12/01/2015 07:06

In order of favourites:

Annabel
Matilda
Ella
Lola

Good luck!

FlossieTreadlight · 12/01/2015 06:22

Matilda is lovely. Enjoy meeting each other later!
