Alice or Felicity?

Just that really :)

With our baby girl due in a few weeks, we finally narrowed it down to these two names.

Love them both, they both go with our one syllable surname.

What’s your favourite? Can’t decide AT ALL!

I like both, but I think Felicity is more likely to end up with an unusual nickname (eg Fliss, Flick). So if you love or hate the thought of that, it may help you make your decision?

Both lovely- Felicity is a bit more unusual so I think that edges it for me (just!)

I have a Felicity. Never had anything other than great feedback on her name (apart from one relative who initially said it was too posh 😂)
Alice is lovely too, a bit more common if that bothers you and there are LOADS of A names I find, I know so many baby girls with A names, where as you don’t get many ‘F’s which I think make it feel a bit more unusual :)

Congratulations

Like both - but Felicity Ross packs more punch than Alice Ross, so I'd go for that (also I had a fantastic aunt Felicity!)

I love Felicity. I am seeing it mentioned quite a bit atm though so may be about to become more popular

I was going to have Felicity Alice had ds2 been dd3, so Felicity would be my vote. Although both are love names Alice is fairly popular at the moment.
