I have an Iris, a Beatrice and an Elspeth and need some help with potential DD4, (we have a boys name).

The list is currently:
Agatha
Verity
Tabitha
Cecelia
Cornelia.

Thoughts? Any other suggestions?

Thanks.

Agatha is my fave.
I like all the others apart from Cornelia sorry, just makes me think of corns on feet, also it's likely to be shortened to Corny...
Other suggestions - Astrid

Hermione. My favourite name!

bumpertobumper · 16/01/2018 17:47

Alice is the name that came to mind when I read the other three you have...

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 16/01/2018 15:20

Lettice. Bloody love it.

MammieBear · 16/01/2018 14:58

Good list of names to go with your girls I think Verity is a really good fit or how about:
Amity
Coralie
Myrtle
Viola

FinnegansCake · 16/01/2018 14:39

Constance
Clemency

Millicent

You have lovely taste in names.

I wondered what your boy choices would be?

borntobequiet · 16/01/2018 13:52

Marguerite

Mrsknackered · 16/01/2018 13:48

Not sure if some of these have already been suggested, but I've tried to avoid repeats! Love your other daughters names.

Cleo
Edith
Ottilie
Ailsa
Raya
Connie
Honor
Lotte
Ariadne
Gaia
Sylvie
Willa

I really like Cecilia, Agatha and Tabitha from your lists. I mischief prefer Cecilia (and this spelling) to Celia. I really dislike the 'corn' part of Cornelia, and I have an irrational dislike of Verity.

regularbutpanickingabit · 16/01/2018 11:25

What about Nell? Iris, Beatrice, Elspeth and Nell sound beautiful together.
I do love Verity or Margot, too.

LaurieMarlow · 16/01/2018 11:24

Definitely Verity. Although I could live with Cecelia.

What about Adeline?

Minty82 · 16/01/2018 11:20

Verity or Tabitha! Both gorgeous with your other names. Tabitha's my favourite (would have been DS's name had he been a girl, though everyone we've mentioned it to in real life says "thank goodness he was a boy then!" I've always loved it.) But Verity's beautiful too.

strawberrypenguin · 16/01/2018 11:18

Ariana

Kittykatmacbill · 16/01/2018 11:11

Love Agatha, but I would in a similar vein suggest Agnes and Greta / Gretchen.

Harebellmeadow · 15/01/2018 16:00

Portia
Estelle
Lucinde
Leonora

lauraslops · 15/01/2018 15:53

first name to come to mind is Hazel

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 15/01/2018 09:42

Tabitha is lovely.

Prefer Cecily. Henrietta?

SwinginFromTheChandelier · 15/01/2018 09:24

Also.

Ingrid
Enid
Phoebe

I like Saskia actually, funnily enough it’s my SIL’s name. Xanthe is good too.

This is all adding to the list, not whittling it down!

Such a fab list of names. We are currently trying (and failing) to come up with a sister name for our Tabitha and Saskia!!
I do really like Verity from your list. And I think Sadie, Nancy and Agatha are amazing with her big sisters. Xanthe? Bonnie? Nell?
We also have two middle names for our girls....

Can’t remember who but to the PP with Tabitha Juniper and Elodie - I wave frantically at you!!!!
Both Juniper and Elodie are high up on our list. Xxx

Starfish83 · 14/01/2018 22:08

Love your daughters' names, and think your boys list is lovely, too.

Tabitha is my favourite from your girls list. To add to the suggestions, how about Saskia? (A hugely biased choice as it's the name of our baby girl!) x

TatianaLarina · 14/01/2018 21:56

Love your boys names. The only girls names I like of your lists is Cecilia.

Really like Violet and Nancy, shame they’re no gos.
