DD1 is due in early February and we've whittled our name shortlist down to the following but chronic indecision has now set in and I feel like I'm going name-blind! Please help!

Middle name would likely be either Emily or Christina (both family names).

Margot
Edith (nn Edie)
Ava
Daisy
Hazel
Lily

Thanks :)!

Like Margot, loathe Hazel

I like them all - good list! However, there are loads of Daisys and Lilys here.

Edith

Margot!

Ava, Lily and Daisy are really popular, if that kind of thing bothers you. Oh, just realised that Sir said exactly the same thing.

Edie is getting popular.

Margot and Hazel are pretty and unusual. I like Hazel especially.

Love the name Margot!

Lily, Daisy and Ava all mega popular if that bothers you?

Margot

CakeRattleandRoll · 06/12/2016 14:08

Margot is my favourite.

Gruffalosfriend · 06/12/2016 14:05

Christina and Edith are lovely

I don't like the non French pronunciation of Mar-gott, which is used in many Germanic and Scandinavian countries

I like Margot, Edith and Hazel best.

Darthvadersmuuuum · 06/12/2016 13:44

Margot and Edith

SoOverPeppa123 · 06/12/2016 13:28

I love all of them apart from edith but love edie.

Friolero · 06/12/2016 13:14

Margot - really lovely
Edith (nn Edie) - I like this, especially the nn Edie
Ava - not keen
Daisy - nice for a child, but I don't think it really works for grown-ups
Hazel - quite like this, but prefer Margot and Edith from your list.
Lily - nice but very over-used (at least where I am!)

Artandco · 06/12/2016 13:10

Hazel or Margot

Hazel Emilie Christina
Margot Tina Emmeline

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 06/12/2016 13:08

BuntyFigglesworthSpiffington · 06/12/2016 13:07

I love Margot and Edie. But not Edith.

Bluntness100 · 06/12/2016 13:05

I like daisy or lily.
