Hi,

Trying to find a girls name to go with big sister Cora.

Fave names are Violet, Etta, Elsie, Ida, Isla.

Thoughts on these? Or any suggestions. Preferably a vintage name x

NameChange30 · 01/05/2020 19:51

I wouldn't choose another name ending in -a.
I really like PP's suggestion of Faye but it might not be "vintage" enough for you?
Margot or Rose would go well.
How about Beth?
