I'm a 45 year old mum to be, 'surprise" ! (shock)
I already have three grown ups, Lucien, Charlotte and George ( I know) I need something for a girl, fairly classic, beginning with L, does anyone have any ideas? I have been through every online listing. Don't want Lysandra or Lucy or Louise.

I quite like Lettice, but my other half will divorce me!

Laura
Lettice
Lavinia
Lola

Does it have to be 'L' for your Mum? Could it be a name that means remembrance or similar?
Rosemary
Cora

Or after a loved quality of hers?
Grace
Patience
Hope etc.

I do like Lara but it's quite a new name, so I'm not entirely sure about that one, I love Laurel but husband, says it reminds him of Laurel and Hardy.
My mother just died and she was an L, so it's in remembrance of her, my brother already has a daughter with her name.

It's not really classic, but I love Lois.

KlingybunFistelvase · 10/02/2017 15:34

Oh yes and Lisa

KlingybunFistelvase · 10/02/2017 15:34

Why does it need to begin with L, just out of interest?

My favourite girl's name beginning with L is Leigh. It's one of those names I think can suit any personality.

Lara?

Liberty?

Congratulations, btw!
