We are due with our little girl in 4 weeks and desperately want to choose a name. We want something that sounds “elegant and kind” and isn’t that popular. We already have a little boy called Rupert.

Names we are considering (but would welcome other similar suggestions are):
Ottilie
Ottoline
Tabitha (any good nicknames for Tabitha that aren’t tabby?)
Ophelia
Aurelia (any nickname suggestions?)
Violet

Tabitha - could be Thea as a nicename, but you'd probably have to do what my friend did when she wanted and nickname that wasn't the most common for her DD's name - she didn't introduce her DD with the long name, always with the shortened one she liked, until it had stuck.

Persephone
Cordelia
Lydia
Eloide

You might get away with Beth as a NN for Tabitha but it’s a cat’s name really.

Not Clementine? That’s my favourite.

Aurelia is nice - I'd go for nn Ray/Rey or Reya
