What’s my name?

Baby girl. Over 9lb, dark hair and seems quite chilled (and hungry).

Sister’s name is Philippa

Eleanor is an option for a middle name, but not set.

Husband likes Heather, Millie.

I don’t have a clue!! Can anyone help name our daughter?

Massive congratulations @Hunkyd0ry on your baby girl

Love the name Freya xxxx ❤️

@user1573354 Freya peaked in popularity 10 years ago according to official ONS data. It’s not as popular now. I don’t know any (my children both under 4yo)

Freya goes great! Congrats

Freya is wildly different in popularity to Philippa... Just something to bare in mind if you didn't check stats. There are a dozen Freya's in my dd's school. I'd consider Faye, if you like that sound.

Lovely op! Philippa and Freya are a lovely pair. Congratulations Flowers.

Ooooh congratulations!

Was I the one who suggested Freya?

Thank you for all your help.

I have to say I really dislike both Heather and Millie - very humdrum.

Thank you all. I just feel so fussy!

@Verily1 I agree Heather is a lovely name but our surname is very matchy e.g Heather Hacker etc
So think it would sound a bit odd.

I like that Phillipa is traditional but also has nicknames like Pippa or Pip. So hoping for something similar
