I love Clara and Lyra.

I think Clara goes better with your DD's name though.

Clara is wonderful. Would be my pick.
Not Lyra, far too faddy and of-the-moment.
Alice is fine, but not wild about it.
Matilda is lovely.

Suggestions:
Meriel
Rosalind
Beatrice
Frances
Natalia
Also like Eleanor and Francesca as suggested by PPs.

I love Alice and Clara. I have only ever met one Clara - such a pretty name.

I also love Juliet.

MadeInCornwallx3 · 18/01/2019 12:26

In have a Matilda and love it.

Also love Clara. It was on my list for new DD.

Least favourite is Lyra as its close to Liar.

Alice is beautiful and classic too but there are a lot around.

Icklepup · 18/01/2019 11:14

Alice

Littleloaf · 16/01/2019 20:34

Alice and Clara are both beautiful

17caterpillars1mouse · 16/01/2019 13:50

Love Madeleine, from your list i'd go with Alice but not really feeling any of them

Ploppymoodypants · 16/01/2019 13:44

Ah but ever Alice I have met has been very kind and fun and quirky.

Giraffetower · 15/01/2019 22:08

Clara. That was on my list, too. Beautiful name.

I really irrationally dislike Alice. Mainly because every Alice I have ever met has been a grade A bitch.

Esme, Helena, Audrey, Verity, Francesca, Trinity

comebacksoonsusan · 15/01/2019 22:01

Clara

wizzler · 15/01/2019 21:56

I have a Madeleine.
If I had another DD she would be Martha

DramaAlpaca · 15/01/2019 21:54

Clara or Alice go very well.

Lyra is pretty but a very different style to Madeleine.

SuperstarDJ · 15/01/2019 21:51

I really like Clara. Really dislike Lyra.

Allgirlskidsanddogs · 15/01/2019 21:50

Clara, with Alice a close second
