Name not clicking

Currently pregnant with baby no 4 (and my last I think) and it's my first pregnancy where I can't find a name I love.

I'm currently 34 weeks - we've known it's a girl for a while now and starting to stress! My DC names are:
DD1 - Ivy (this was easy to pick as it's the name I've had my heart set on since I was 13!)
DS2 - Tommy
DS3 - Brodie

I like names that end in a y or ie, 2 syllables - unique but not too unsual (yes I'm aware Tommy isn't unique but I just adore the name!)

Middle name will probably be Elle or Rose. Here are the names on my list so far (none of them have fallen into place though)
Macy - I love this name but DH isn't keen
Elsie - really like but something's stopping me
Sadie - DH suggested and I weren't sure at first but it's grown on me
Hettie

When I was pregnant with DS2, before we knew he was a boy I considered Annie and Zoë but I haven't quite clicked with them.

Thank you!

I thought of Sadie as soon as I read the names of your first three children.

I like Sadie best from your list.

I really don’t like Macy, sorry.

Elsie and Hettie are ok, but sound like the diminutives they are.

I love Hetty

Isn't Annie Rose the little sister in the Archie books? I do like it though!

BarryBarryTaylor · 02/07/2019 18:59

Marcie?

DramaAlpaca · 02/07/2019 18:56

I'd pick Sadie from your list, it goes well with your other names.

@Alarae

I quite like that actually but I wouldn't use it - reminds me of Effy from Skins!

I really like Sadie, I think it works well and is a great name.
I also like that you’d have two ie’s and two y’s

Someone at work named their daughter Effie.

Although the problem with Annie is that my name is Ellianna.
