Sophia.

From your list Mariella

MrsH497 · 01/09/2020 18:37

Charlotte but I'm biased as that's my DD name

KellyMarieTunstall2 · 01/09/2020 18:36

Greta
Frida
Georgina
Cassandra
Beulah

Toilenstripes · 01/09/2020 18:32

Beatrice is such a beautiful name. Mariella or Eleanor would both work for Dd2.

elsa2424 · 01/09/2020 18:30

Imogen

whyayepetal · 01/09/2020 15:51

I like Eleanor - maybe Ella would work too?

pilates · 01/09/2020 14:17

Eleanor but dislike Ellie

kellybean18 · 01/09/2020 14:13

Imogen.

The others are a little bland (sorry!)

Other ideas -

Florence
Isabella
Arabella
Victoria

cornflakecritter · 30/08/2020 00:02

Came onto suggest Elizabeth too! But I do think Eleanor is lovely, but prepare for shortening to Ellie

Wheresthebiffer2 · 29/08/2020 23:50

I like Mariella. And I also like Marianne.

Twizbe · 29/08/2020 07:24

Evangeline ....

Or Elizabeth

Or Eleanor from your list.

len1234 · 29/08/2020 07:16

Mariella is my favorite. Smile

4kidmom · 29/08/2020 00:42

I think Charlotte is my favorite. I really like Mariella but it does not match the style of Beatrice as well. Eleanor is my second choice.

DramaAlpaca · 29/08/2020 00:31

You won't go wrong with any of those on your list, OP. All very nice.

ittooshallpass · 29/08/2020 00:27

Imogen

Tillygetsit · 28/08/2020 23:42

I love Mariella. Makes me think of Ms Frostrop who is not at all frilly.

Firebird83 · 28/08/2020 20:56

Eleanor or Mariella.

Matilda or Florence was my first thought before seeing your shortlist.

TurquoiseDress · 28/08/2020 17:25

I love the Beatrice & Charlotte combo!

emmathedilemma · 28/08/2020 16:56

I love Alice, can you not convert him??

Beamur · 28/08/2020 16:18

I prefer Mariella.
Beatrice is a fab name Wink

SteakExpectations · 28/08/2020 16:15

I know a Beatrice with a sister, Victoria.

From your list, I think my favourite is Charlotte - Lottie to go with Beatrice - B

FizzyGreenWater · 28/08/2020 16:13

Of course! I was thinking of royals now though - Princess Beatrice, Princess Charlotte - all a bit 'typical royal-y'

Looks like Eleanor is the current favourite. Thanks all!

@CharlieBoo I really like Alice but DH doesn’t like it all.

@FizzyGreenWater Eleanor is a royal name too, Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine.

I think Eleanor or Charlotte go very well with Beatrice. They match the length well.

CharlieBoo · 28/08/2020 15:33

What about Alice that goes so well with Beatrice x
