I am down to these two names. I know they are both popular names but they are two of my favourites and after considering other names i always come back to these two. Please help me decide by letting me know which you prefer, thanks x

Alice

MadeOfStarStuff · 11/06/2021 19:12

Both lovely but I prefer Alice

Alice Grace works well

OnTheSeaShore · 11/06/2021 18:56

Oh this is a difficult one. Both names are absolutely beautiful. Could you wait until she arrives and see which suits her the best?

highlighteryellow · 11/06/2021 18:45

I love both but prefer Alice.

Theoldwoman · 11/06/2021 17:13

It will depend on your surname> What middle name? Any siblings?

Both names are gorgeous, but I'm rather partial to Alice.

BabyAR22 · 11/06/2021 16:57

Alice Grace!

Stevearnottsbeard · 11/06/2021 14:39

Love both, one of my daughters has Grace as her middle name so I'm biased

InnaBun · 11/06/2021 14:20

Alice in case she isn't graceful

Chilldonaldchill · 11/06/2021 13:57

Alice.

Penguin81 · 11/06/2021 08:55

Alice

MrsCrosbyNRTB · 11/06/2021 08:38

Definitely Alice. Strong, timeless and beautiful.

Grace - meh and a bit wet.

AbsolutelyPatsy · 11/06/2021 08:31

agree Alice is less common than Grace and of course you do run the risk of her not being graceful

CroydianSlip · 11/06/2021 08:30

Alice by far

JessCat75 · 11/06/2021 08:29

Grace

sibbys · 11/06/2021 08:28

ALICE!

CoffeeRunner · 10/06/2021 23:47

Both are so wet.

Is there really nothing else?

IdblowJonSnow · 10/06/2021 23:46

I like both.

lottiegarbanzo · 10/06/2021 23:33

Alice

Much lovelier and more elegant

NotABeliever · 10/06/2021 23:30

I like both but prefer Alice! It's a great name and really not that common.

LemonJelly76 · 10/06/2021 23:22

I like the Welsh variant, Alys . Although if you're not Welsh I guess you might not want a Welsh variant! It was on our name list but I was overruled !

Much prefer Alice over Grace personally

Mareofwesttown · 10/06/2021 23:22

Don’t like either. Grace, if pushed.

HorridHamble · 10/06/2021 23:20

Alice.

Crikeyblimey · 10/06/2021 23:20

Both were on my girl list but I had a ds. However, Alice is by far my favourite (and still is nearly 20 years later) and is just so timeless.
So, my vote - Alice.

Marcipex · 10/06/2021 23:19

Grace, but they are both nice.

Stargazer89 · 10/06/2021 23:18

Lovely names and we considered both. I always went back to Alice though and so pleased we choose it. I know people say it’s popular but I am a teacher and have never taught an Alice before! I love it!! X
