Struggling to decide on a name for DD2.
We have a Sylvie so would love something that goes with that.

So far we like

Olive
Pearl
Mabel
Lydia
Beatrix
Etta

Any opinions on those names would be great and any suggestions would also be appreciated!

Thanks

I really like olive and pearl...

I prefer Beatrice to beatrix

Maybe continue the French theme with Sylvie

Like Elodie/amelie/ottilie

I think Mabel Olive sounds really good with Sylvie!

Love Lydia and Olive they sound well with Sylvie. Not too keen on Beatrix or Etta and wouldn't use them with Sylvie. But if you like them then it will be lovely for your dd. Good luck

Like Etta but none of the others.

Kitty
Betty
Enid
Elsie

I love Etta and Pearl! They share a kind of ‘Jazz Age’ glamour with Sylvie.

I think Lydia goes beautifully with Sylvie, too.

Really not keen on Mabel.

Beatrix is OK, but Trixie as a potential nickname is twee and would put me off.
