With DC1 we found girls names easy but this time we don't agree! We know we want a short name (long surname) that doesnt end in "ie" or "ey" here is our current shortlist.
Niamh
Freya
Cora
Thea (I'm not keen as DC1 is Leo!)
Ada
Erin
Isla

Any other suggestions??
Thanks!

I also love Eve or Beatrice (shortened to B) but husband doesn't like these. Alice is a bit pretty for me. I want something strong sounding if that makes sense!??
