I'm hung up on Lois and DH doesn't like it because of the Family Guy association. I also like Luisa and Clara. He's on the fence about those yet agrees we're on the right wavelength with the shorter, recognisable names that aren't being used so much right now.

Can you think of any along similar vein to these please?

Lois, Nina and Kate would have been my shortlist for a girl. And Louisa but I prefer Lois and couldn't have both.. gorgeous names.

How would you pronounce Luisa? Loo-ee-sah? Loo-ee-zah?

Funny. I went to school with a Lucia, pronounced Loo-sha. Never occurred to me that there were multiple pronouncing ions, other than Loo-chee-a if of Latin heritage.
