Really early days but I love names Grin and I have a feeling there could be strong disagreements so we need to get the ball rolling. I've got a son called Connor and a DSD called Abigail

  • Paige - this was a frontrunner in my last pregnancy but that was 13 years ago so I'm worried it's a little dated now.
  • Lucy
  • Megan - again, is it dated?
  • Lara
  • Harriet
  • Freya
  • Madeline

I'm also open to any suggestions, but I don't like granny-chick or the current trend of floral and nature type names (Daisy, Maisie, Violet etc). Nothing too outlandish

From your list, I like Lara, Harriet, and Madeleine (spelt this way). Aside from Lucy which sounds like a nickname to me, everything else feels a bit dated.

I love Lara and Madeleine. Megan is nice too and I don't think it's dated.

Harriet and Lucy both nice. Though the only name I dislike there is Paige.

(I know this is verboten on mumsnet, but where I grew up, Paige is a 'chavvy' name)

itssquidstella · 25/06/2017 11:24

Lara is my favourite. I don't like Paige or Megan. The others are all very nice names.

Reow · 25/06/2017 11:11

Love them all except Madeline.

Is Megan dated? I think it's really nice!

I'd go with Paige, it goes well with Connor and Abigail.

Newmum102 · 25/06/2017 11:09

I love Harriet and Paige and don't think they are dated at all. Harriet would be on my list if we ever have a girl.

Amee1992x · 25/06/2017 11:07

Megan is my favourite x

Paige is dated IMO, as is Megan

Lara and Lucy are timeless though, and both go well with your DC names.

GeillisTheWitch · 25/06/2017 10:53

Paige and Freya are my favourites.
