Which of these names do you like for a girl? I already have a Eva and a Isaiah. Feel free to criticise, suggestions are also welcome!

Empress sounds like a female GSD, or similar. Sorry.

BertrandRussell · 03/01/2016 22:07

All awful!

Eadlin's an Anglo-Saxon name according to Google. I'm sure I've come across it recently - perhaps some minor character in a fantasy novel? - but I just can't remember where. It's annoying me now.

Yikes, sorry but they're all awful.

What about Amelie instead of Armelle?

Sophronia · 03/01/2016 22:04

I don't like any of them, sorry.

WaitrosePigeon · 03/01/2016 22:04

They are all a bit silly tbh.

I don't think any work with your current DC as none of them look like actual names, which your DC have. Apart from Eadlin, is it Irish?

SoWhite · 03/01/2016 22:01

Agree with Jesabel, Amelle is pretty.

Jesabel · 03/01/2016 21:59

Amelle is nicer than Armelle.

Italy and Empress (snigger) aren't names for people.

Eadlin sounds more like a name - is it gaelic?

SkyShadow · 03/01/2016 21:59

Eadlin and Armelle are the best two IMO.

I really hate Italy as a child's name.

SoWhite · 03/01/2016 21:58

None to be honest.

Armelle is the best, but it's not good.

Empress is comical - you're not Kim and Kanye - your child will 99.9% probably live a very normal life, in which a name like Empress will be a hindrance.

Eadlin doesn't look like a name to me. I may be wrong, and hugely culturally insensitive, but it looks like a bastardisation of Aladdin.

Italy isn't one of those place names that works well as a name. Even if it did, Italy sounds masculine to me.

Your list is a shame because Eva and Isaiah are both so lovely. On the place theme, would a name like India suit you? Eva, Isaiah and India is a great sib set.
