Baby number 2 is due in the next month and can't decide on girls names already have a little boy and name for next baby if a boy is decided options for girls name are

Lois
April
Winnie (this was contender for dc1 but is now a bit matchy with ds...is that weird?)

Ds name is vintage/'old man' name not one of the more popular ones, this wasn't intended just loved the name

Lois is the nicest of your 3.

Lois 😍😍

How about Willa instead on Winnie

Chachachawoo · 24/08/2021 07:17

I would go for Lois

Lois is lovely . Not heard it for a long time and I used to babysit a lovely little one when I was a teenager .

Lois and April are both lovely but if I had to pick one. I would go with Lois.

April will get asked if they were born in April a lot

Love both Lois and April - they're quite different to each other, so why not wait and see which you like when she's born?

Winnie is dreadful. I dislike April, a lot. Lois is not one I'd pick, but actually very nice.
Yes, this.

I think April is a lovely name I'm not keen on Lois because I know one and she's awful and Winnie just isn't my cup of tea

Sorry, I really dislike Winnie - and I think kids will make "pooh" jokes. Nothing wrong with Lois or April but I personally prefer the sound of April.

I love Lois for a girls name, always surprised it not more popular.

jackstini · 23/08/2021 22:42

Lois is my favourite

SE13Mummy · 23/08/2021 22:41

I like Lois. April feels like an odd choice for an autumn baby and Winnie may be best avoided if paired with Vinnie, Winston or Wilfred.

SuzyDaarling · 23/08/2021 22:36

I love April. Not keen on the other two.

Lois is a lovely name
