Our daughter was born this week and we can't decide between 3 names! We like Charlotte, Eloise or Annabel. We both really like Charlotte but it is quite popular (not so much in Scotland where we live mind you, I don't know any round about us) . Any thoughts /opinions would be useful!

Charlotte is lovely.
What about Elizabeth?

Namechanger0800 · 14/08/2021 15:23

All lovely but my favourite is Annabel

danascully96 · 14/08/2021 02:39

Charlotte’s stunning and warm sounding. I’d go for that one 🥰

Enko · 14/08/2021 01:01

If you both really like Charlotte go with Charlotte. Personally I prefer Eloise or Annabel

Thanks! We will probably use one of the other names as a middle name so will use 2 of the names .

Thanks! We will probably use one of the other names as a middle name so we will still use 2 of the names.

Annabel is my favourite from your list but prefer it spelt Annabelle.

PaolaDiLorenzo · 13/08/2021 21:27

Eloise is a lovely name and a great song Smile

ilovemykids5 · 13/08/2021 21:23

Charlotte is beautiful.

DramaAlpaca · 13/08/2021 20:06

All are lovely. If you both like Charlotte, go for that.

Aorh · 13/08/2021 19:28

All lovely, Annabel is my favourite

Cookiebox · 13/08/2021 19:27

I can't understand posters saying charlotte in is boring or plain! Shock
All nice names but I do love Eloise as it's unusual and less common.

KezzabellaB · 13/08/2021 19:17

I love Charlotte Eloise. Congratulations!

mutedrainbows · 13/08/2021 19:13

Eloise. Charlotte is lovely but boring.

Kanaloa · 13/08/2021 19:13

I’d do Eloise. It’s a lovely strong name. Charlotte’s nice as well, I’m not as keen on Annabel but no real reason.

LadyWithLapdog · 13/08/2021 19:12

Eloise

spooney21 · 13/08/2021 19:11

Eloise is my fav and Annabel my least.

Balonzette · 13/08/2021 19:06

Annabel or Eloise.

35andThriving · 13/08/2021 19:05

Eloise or Charlotte would be my top picks. I still like the name Annabel but would slightly prefer to be called Charlotte or Eloise.

penguinwithasuitcase · 13/08/2021 18:42

Eloise, no doubt.

Charlotte is nice but feels a little plain –Annabel also a bit on the cutesy side for me.

MaMelon · 13/08/2021 18:27

Charlotte or Eloise. Congratulations! Flowers
