Girl No4 due and we've used all the good names!

Currently 25 weeks pregnant with girl number four and really struggling with her name.
We already have:

Daisy Dorothy
Betty Tabitha
Kitty Matilda

I like traditional/unusual names, with middle names that can be abbreviated incase they grow to hate their first name.

Short list for the new baby is
Winnie
Quincy
Bunty

Middle name Dolores or Delilah.

I'm not completely sold on them though, any opinions or other suggestions?

Enough of the Bunty bashing! (Strops off in a huff)

They’re all hideous

NorthernLurker · 25/02/2018 20:21

Winnie and Bunty are dreadful and Quincy is a masculine name. If you want that sort of vintage feel then:

Sylvie
Polly
Effie
Ada
Cecily
Hettie

CrumblyMumbly · 25/02/2018 20:21

I notice the pattern is 2 syllables 3 syllables - Winnie best of your 3 but not keen sorry. When I looked at your other names what sprang to mind straight away was Mabel Elizabeth so I have spoken!

Polly Delilah. Look no further. It’s a lovely combination and goes perfectly with Daisy, Betty and Kitty.

RogueAnnJosh · 25/02/2018 20:13

It's got to be:

Daisy Dorothy
Betty Tabitha
Kitty Matilda

and...

Ivy Dolores

If I have a girl I'm looking at the name Willow though I haven't decided on a middle name yet.

Ottillie Delilah

RockafellerSkank · 25/02/2018 15:31

I think she should have her own initial, have five letters, two syllables and end in Y liker her sisters.

Daisy Dorothy
Betty Tabitha
Kitty Matilda

And:
Poppy
Polly
Posey
Milly
Tilly
Cassy
Tabby

Polly feels like a perfect fit for your girls.
