I wouldn't have Maggie as Maggie and Daisy are actually the same name, believe it or not. They're both versions of Margaret. (Marguerite is the French for Daisy, which is how the flower comes to be a name....)

I love the name Maggie!

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 08/07/2017 22:26

Are you pronouncing it Leela or Lyla?

glitterlips1 · 08/07/2017 22:25

Maggie and Grace for me. I think Maggie is sweet.

BertrandRussell · 08/07/2017 22:21

But Grace is lovely. Not that I'm biased or anything. And it was very unusual when I used it!

SloeGinRocks · 08/07/2017 22:21

I love Grace.
Isla doesn't sound modern to me.

BertrandRussell · 08/07/2017 22:20

Margaret shortened to Maggie. Then you/she can have Meg, if you like. Or Peggy.

WanderingTrolley1 · 08/07/2017 22:17

Penelope or Grace.

Sophronia · 08/07/2017 22:15

I like Lila and Grace

NuffSaidSam · 08/07/2017 22:11

I like all of them.

Penelope is lovely, but I think it's on the rise popularity wise. There are a few thread here at the moment where Penelope is on the shortlist. It was outside the top 100 a couple of years ago.

Maggie - sweet, but Simpsons maybe. I don't like Daisy and Maggie together, too many 'ee' sounds.

Grace - lovely

Isla - goes well with Daisy, but very popular, top 3 I think.

Lila -pretty and goes well with Daisy I think. Not too popular, although there are loads of Isla's and Lily's and Lila is very much in that family.

I'd go with Grace.
