Lily or Daisy from your list! Quite popular but they're lovely.

Ipanema01 · 02/11/2018 13:35

Cecily by miles! Lily is so so pretty but it’s too popular for me personally.

RiverMeadow · 01/11/2018 22:12

Eliza and Daisy

TheGirlOnTheLanding · 31/10/2018 22:10

Anna or Rowan

Rowan is more frequently a girl's than a boy's name here (Scotland) so it may depend where you are.

NotTouchingThese · 31/10/2018 13:00

Lara (safe but beautiful; travels well) or Joy (bold and uncommon)

KiplingAngelCake · 31/10/2018 12:58

Anna, Lara or Eliza are my favourites

SuperstarDJ · 31/10/2018 12:29

For me, Rowan is a boy's name (I know it's unisex, but I only know boy Rowans so struggle to imagine it on a girl). Cecily isn't my cup of tea sorry. Lily was ultrapopular about 10 years ago and there are still a lot of Lilys now so I'm a little tired of it personally. And Daisy is a little too twee/insubstantial for me.

I agree with every word of this ^

Eliza Joy is still my favourite Smile

I really like Emma, Anna, Lucy, Rose as a first name, Eliza, Lara and Joy. Lara and Joy are underused so particularly lovely.

For me, Rowan is a boy's name (I know it's unisex, but I only know boy Rowans so struggle to imagine it on a girl). Cecily isn't my cup of tea sorry.

Joy & Eliza are my favourites. I think Eliza Joy flows & sounds lovely.

Notso · 31/10/2018 07:02

Emma, Anna or Rose are my favourites. Classic names to suit any age group.

I'm not keen on Lucy or Cecily don't know why but they make me think of a Verruca Salt type child!

The other names are all nice enough though.

Yeaididthat · 31/10/2018 06:22

Lara or Cecily

BackforGood · 31/10/2018 01:00

I like Emma best from your list.

Not very keen on
Daisy
Cecily
Rowan
Joy

and there have been a LOT of Lily's around this area in last 3 or 4 years.

Aintnothingbutaheartache · 31/10/2018 00:52

Love them all apart from Joy & Rowan
