Hi there,

Our baby girl is due tomorrow and we are still undecided on a name for her. We have narrowed it down to Emilia, Verity or Ava. Which one would you name your daughter, popularity aside?

Verity

Emilia or Ava for me, really not a fan of Verity at all.

rachrach2 · 16/08/2017 20:03

Emilia and Ava are beautiful. Really dislike Verity.

Verity is lovely, and due a comeback.

Ava

Ava or Verify

Lemondrop99 · 16/08/2017 19:52

Verity

Verity is lovely.

PoppyPopcorn · 16/08/2017 14:07

Not Ava - perfectly nice name, but the country is awash with children called Ava, Eva, Evie, etc.

averythinline · 16/08/2017 14:02

Verity ,

the other two are nice as well although very popular ....but its definite favourite...

Pallisers · 16/08/2017 13:58

All are pretty. I prefer Verity.

EsmesBees · 16/08/2017 13:58

Verity. It's my daughter's name. I get loads of compliments on it.

chamenanged30 · 16/08/2017 13:56

I have an Emilia. She's 3 and I still adore her name.

Berrybakecake1 · 16/08/2017 13:49

Love Verity!
Prefer Amelia to Emilia.
And I know about a hundred Ava's (most of which are horrid) and its one of the names i always hear mothers screeching in the street.

ScarletSienna · 16/08/2017 13:39
  1. Verity
  2. Ava
  3. Emilia

Ava. Lots of Emilias/Amelias around at the moment. Sorry, never liked Verity as a name, reminds me of variety. Also, I know 2 Veritys, one a teenager and one adult, and neither are the nicest of people!

SuperBeagle · 16/08/2017 12:32

I have an Emilia so I'm biased Grin

I love Ava as well.

Not a fan of Verity. It sounds ferrety to me.

KingPrawnOkay · 16/08/2017 12:19

Verity. Can't stand the Emilia spelling of Amelia (although I do like Amelia) and I know you said popularity aside but Ava is too common for my liking.

cliffdiver · 16/08/2017 12:19

Verity

eyebrowsonfleek · 16/08/2017 12:15

Verity.
Emilia/Amelia and Eva/Ava are too popular and mistaken for each other which would annoy me.

Sophronia · 16/08/2017 12:08

Verity

Verity, though all are nice.

AliciaMayEmory · 16/08/2017 11:25

I love the name Verity. Lots of Avas and Evas where I live, also many many Emilys/Emilia/Amelias.

All beautiful names, but Verity is definitely a winner for me.

Ava
