Nancy

I'm not keen on flower names, and I'm not sure Make has really got that much 'chic' about it, just 'granny'.

Dapplegrey · 01/01/2018 21:12

Mabel is divine

deptfordgirl · 01/01/2018 21:12

I love Iris and Nancy. Not so keen on Mabel.

Lemonadesea · 01/01/2018 21:09

Iris is overused. Mabel and Nancy are both fabulous.

shaggedthruahedgebackwards · 01/01/2018 21:09

Iris

Wilberforce2 · 01/01/2018 21:08

Iris and Mabel! Iris is my dd's middle name x

NC4now · 01/01/2018 21:08

Iris is my favourite, but the Nancy I know is a little sweetheart, so I’ve got a soft spot for that name too.
Not keen on Mabel.

lalaloopyhead · 01/01/2018 21:06

Mabel

Not to keen on Iris or Nancy

Battleax · 01/01/2018 21:03

Mabel.

Or maybe Iris.

Definitely not Nancy.

Courgettekatie · 01/01/2018 21:02

Mabel, always loved it. Unfortunately I was ahead / behind the times when naming my daughters 20-16 years ago but it’s back so go for it!

DramaAlpaca · 01/01/2018 21:01

Iris by a mile.

Then Mabel.

Nancy a long way down the list.

7 for Iris
5 for Nancy
5 for Mabel

At this point! Blush

Bit even Stevens

WildRosesGrow · 01/01/2018 20:58

I like Iris. Nancy is a bit spiky and Mabel doesn't sound pretty to me.

PenelopePickle · 01/01/2018 20:58

Mabel

Then Iris, then Nancy

AlmostChristmas · 01/01/2018 20:58

Sorry 4 for Mabel

AlmostChristmas · 01/01/2018 20:57

That's 5 for Iris
4 for Nancy
3 for Mabel

So far.....

AlmostChristmas · 01/01/2018 20:55

Nancy- sweet and simple!

Theyhaveallbeenused2 · 01/01/2018 20:14

Nancy!

therealreason · 01/01/2018 20:11

Mabel Smile

Santasbigredbobblehat · 01/01/2018 19:47

Iris. (As I have one).
Then Mabel.

Namechange16 · 01/01/2018 19:47

Or Naomi

PanannyPanoo · 01/01/2018 19:46

Nancy and Mabel were both on my list. Love them both.

Namechange16 · 01/01/2018 19:45

If I were to have a shock third girl, I would call her something like Nancy I think.

yikesanotherbooboo · 01/01/2018 19:44

I think Iris is cool. I'm not usually a nature name lover but I make an exception for Iris .

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 01/01/2018 19:44

Mabel.
