Ok I've never posted on this board before, so here goes. These are the 3 names me and dh are considering for dd2 and I'd like to know which one everyone likes best.

We'd likely shorten Abigail to Abby from the get go as we both prefer Abby but want to give out DD the option of the longform. I'm not sure about Phoebe but my dh loves this name, he wanted it for our first!

Hmm. Thanks all. Am leaning towards Alice I think plus it goes well with our surname and dd's name.

Alice! Love it.
Have an irrational hatred of Phoebe.

Adore Alice. Timeless.

Love Phoebe. Alice next, then Abigail.

I have a 26 year old sister called Phoebe - mum would never have chosen it now because of the popularity, but I think it is gorgeous.

Love Alice, like phoebe, not keen on Abigail.

Maybe also consider Anna, Annabelle, Jessica, Victoria.

I like Abigail and Alice, but not keen on Phoebe.

They are all nice names, but I like Alice the best, it's beautiful.
