@partyatthepalace I love Lois and seren! Husband doesn't like them! I also really like Robyn! But he says it's a boys name!!! He never likes any names!

Eleanor is a great classic, and Ellie, Ella and Nell are all nice short forms. Elowen, Eloise, Eliza, Leonora are others in this space.

Mallory just sounds made up to me and I don’t like Heidi (I associate with it the 70s for some reason.)

They are all quite different names so slightly hard to make other suggestions, but Lois, Marianne, Juliet, Stella, Seren, Robin, Serena are some other nice names!

I loooooove both Heidi and Mallory 😍 both been on our list but Mal does put me off 😔 another option might be Ellery which I’ve seen before, ties in with Eleanor too? There is Eleri too which I have a feeling might be anglicised Welsh? Not sure.

I am not sure if it would bother you but the name Mallory means unfortunate or unlucky. It was on our list until that put me off. Not everyone cares about name meanings though.

Heidi and Eleanor are both lovely.
