Isabella - Love it. Like Izzy too and Bella is okay. Heard Issy and Ibbie which are lovely and a bit different.
Jessica - Love it. I have an 8 year old Jessica and, although it's been top 10ish for a long time, there seem to be strangely few around.
Freya - Never been keen on this but not sure why, it's pretty enough
Rosanna/rose - Quite like it. Prefer Rosie to either.
Melody - Don't like this at all.
Lola - It's ok. I wasn't keen but now I know such a gorgeous little Lola that it's growing on me.
Ava - Love it. Yes, it's popular but names are popular for a reason.
Layla - Quite like it. Prefer Lyla, Lyra and Lila
Imogen - Really like it.
Emily - Quite like it
Eva - Love it. Think it has a classier, more adult feel than Ava but that might just be because it's been in common usage for longer.

I think I'd pick Jessica or Ava

Rosanna or Rose

Freya, Melody or Imogen get my vote.

Imogen

Emily
Jessica

NOT Layla or Lola or Isabella

What about Louisa? Or Alice?

Melody is also nice and different

ddeemummy · 12/03/2016 10:43

Imogen is nicest in my opinion. I also like Rosanna just because its different.

The other names are just far too popular for me seems to be a new Isabella/Isabel/Bella born everyway I turn lately.
