Girls names

I think we've finally decided on a boys name but have a huge girls list which just seems to get bigger! I think I like too many girls names.

Ds is Jonah.

Which do you like out of:
Bethany
Tabitha
Lydia
Rose
Verity
Matilda
Annabel

And probably more that I can't think of. I have a habit of shortening names so they will inevitably get a nn.

Like them all except Bethany and Tabitha. Don't dislike those two, just not especially keen.

My favourites are Verity, Matilda and Annabel.

DarkBlueEyes,

Felix Cited/ Robin Banks haven't put people off Felix or Robin, though, have they?!

Still love Lydia!

Tabitha is lovely and I quite like Verity.
Rose and Annabel are nice.

What about Harriet or Arabella?

Maybe rose cause it would curb your shortening habit didn't work for me, I ended up with a Ro, or indeed, A row row Rosie boat.

Lydia Dustbin. Just saying. Grin

Tabitha - such a lovely name

AutumnalLeaves38 · 16/10/2017 11:11

Lydia - underrated, not sure why.
Matilda
Bethany

Love Tabitha and Rose.

I dislike Annabel and Bethany.

I do like Matilda but it's recent surge in popularity puts me off

I love Bethany, Lydia and rose. Don't like the others and definitely not annabell after the recent horror film about the creepy girl who gets possessed by a doll and murders her family.

DarkBlueEyes · 16/10/2017 10:49

Tabitha (I have one, we love it), which gets shortened to Tabs and Tabi
Matilda which I love imn full or as Tilly
Rose, maybe.

but the others aren't for me. We get loads and loads of people positively commenting on Tabitha's name.

Maybe rose cause it would curb your shortening habit
