Amelie - really wanted it for DD but she just didn't look like an Amelie
Alannah - DC2 was a boy so didn't get to use this one either

FlyDragonfly1 · 25/12/2015 19:28

I used my favourite for DD, but I would have loved to have used Nora and Emmeline.

AbbyCadabby · 25/12/2015 18:46

I did get to use my favourite girl's name, and we're not having a second dd, but names I would have used:
Calypso
Blythe
Seraphina
Dantea
Cadence
Artemis
Tatiana

I knew an Isis when she was 1, she must be coming up for 2 now. I always wanted to ask the mum what she thought about the connection but was too scared to bring it up!

Wishfulmakeupping · 24/12/2015 23:34

I did use my all time favourite but if I'd had another dd then I love Harriet and Edith also
