DH wants Leila mainly because it’s a very loved past family members name
I like Nina but he thinks it’s a harder sounding name and wants something softer

Older brother called Hugo

Mara and Robyn are the only two I like.

Florence or Nina.
I like Rae but it's more of a mn imo.
Is Leila Lee-la or Lie-la? This would put me off.
Isn't Lilias something evil?
Lola, Ruby and Lily are a little over used here.
Dislike Margot and Maeve immensely.

Actually I agree that Margot sounds a bit weird with Hugo.

Leila is my favourite from that list and would mean a lot to your husband.

I also like Mara, Nina, Flora, Ruby, Florence, Lily, Margot and Maeve.

Not so keen on the others.

@Rebelwithallthecause I like Flora, Florence and Margot from your list but would veto Margot due to repeating an o ending name with Hugo. I prefer Laila or Layla spelling but purely personal preference.
