DS1 is called Robin. His little sister is turning up in a few months and we have some names but I want Mumsnet opinions on them please :)

Ivy - a bit worried it is popular at the min, have people come across many of them?
Lyra - same as above
Juno
Wren - can we have 2 bird names??
Elodie - I can't decide on this one whether she would spend her whole life saying not Melody to people!
Kira

Any help and thoughts appreciated!

From your list I like Kira or Elodie best. Definitely not Wren when you already have a Robin.

How about

Verity
Una
Thea

Ivy or Wren.

I don't know any little Ivys or Lyras. Juno and Elodie are often suggested on MN but I've never met anyone with those names. I think Wren is a very nice nature name and wouldn't think it was odd, but perhaps not such a good idea as you already have a Robin. Not keen on Kira.

Wren would be better if you didn't have Robin but is too awful with Robin!

Robin & Grace

Robin and Erin

Robin & Beatrice

There have been two threads this week about Juno and Lyra already so obviously becoming popular.

robin and wren combo is so twee it makes my teeth itch, 2 children named after little birds.

Do you have any other ideas?

They're all beautiful but a big NO to wren. Sorry, id think you were a bit weird

I love elodie, really pretty, Eloise was on our list As well, I like Lyra too (was also on our list as was robin but for a girl so we must have similar tastes) my baby turned out to be a boy though so we didn't use any!
