The name we loved we can't have because after saying it out loud numerous times it sounds like something else!

No name is really got me thinking 'yes I love it!!!' Surely I should feel that way ?

Anyway here are some that I like, what do you think?

Victoria
Ava
Amelia
Scarlett
Madison

I am worried I have not had that stand out name moment and I get put off so easily. Help!!!

It is so hard ! I always thought a name would jump out at me but I am still trawling through sites looking for something pretty, not too old sounding, slightly unusual but not weird and that goes with the surname. I am hoping when she arrives that A. She is a girl (I think I would find boys names even harder!) and B. One if our kinda liked names just clicks

I really like Ava, Madison and Annabelle.

Quite like Victoria

Not keen on Amelia or Scarlett

I like Victoria best

Love Victoria. It's virtually unheard of now.
Ava is okay, but too popular. If you care about popularity.
Scarlet. Horrible, too try hard and stuffy
Amelia, same as Ava
Can't stand Madison, Madeleine is beautiful though, much more elegant and sophisticated.
Annabella is nice.

Other names to consider.
Isobelle/a
Violet
Emma
Charlotte
Anna
Caroline
Erin
Amy
K/Catherine.
Olivia
Elizabeth
Suzannah
Alice
Rosa
