Baby name dilemma!!!!!!!

As a last resort I have ended up here... my baby girl is due sooo very soon and we haven’t decided on a name for her. My partner loves Sophia but I don’t like it and am not really liking it for a middle name either.
I have - Milly Ella, Milly Isabella or Ella Rose and am completely torn!
Please help 💗

You could wait until she is born because you may find it easier to decide once you see her.
We had a list of 10 names for our little boy, including names I had always dreamed of, however, when he was born we decided that none of them suited him.
You think you had a dilemma? Our little sprog was without a name for EIGHT weeks! And the more under pressure we became, the harder it was.
We finally went with a name that was not on our list ... a name that we could never imagine we would choose.
So, if I were you, I'd take it easy and enjoy this time and the arrival of your little angel and the right name will come to you when it should

Thank you for the quick responses... I’m going out of my mind. I can see what you mean about Milly Ella rolling into one word! My son is called Benjamin so I’m hoping what I pick will go with his name too.
I can’t believe how hard it has been to choose a girls name x

So you like Milly and Ella and your partner likes Sophia? If neither of you likes each other’s favourites then maybe you need to come up with something totally different. Or draw straws, (ok maybe not)!

Ella Rose is the nicest.

Does your partner like any of those?

Ella Rose is lovely. Milly Ella rolls into one word a bit!
