Hi lovely Mumsnetters,
I am expecting DD2 in a few months and I have narrowed down all the names I love.

Can you help me by telling me which ones are your favourite/least favourite?
DD1 is Lucy.
Smile

Sylvia
Francesca
Jemima
Simone (I’m French)
Sabine
Olivia
Hazel
Eliza

I want a name that’s a bit more out there than Lucy and that I love just as much.

Out of your list I prefer Eliza.

But also like Charlotte as a pp has suggested

If you want a name that's more "out there", then I wouldn't choose Olivia, pretty though it is.

I think I like Jemima, Sylvia or Simone best.

Whitewolf2 · 27/09/2021 20:12

My favourites are Jemima or Eliza.
There are so many Olivias and I don’t like Sabine (much prefer Sabrina).

I thought Annabel before I read your post.

Sabine and Simone but love Francesca the best so many nn

PlainJane1000 · 27/09/2021 20:06

I think Sylvia may become nn Sylvie and I think Lucy and Sylvie sound too match. I also find Lucy and Olivia / Eliza a bit heavy on the L sounds.
I think Lucy and Sabine is lovely and so is Lucy and Jemima.

Prefer Sylvie to Sylvia but adore Simone.

Happenchance · 27/09/2021 19:56

Favourite Sylvia. Least favourite Jemima.

IdblowJonSnow · 27/09/2021 19:41

Hazel or Eliza.
But I really like Charlotte or Lottie with Lucy.
Sylvie is nice but very popular where I live - there are three in my Dds year!

wishing3 · 27/09/2021 19:33

Simone is my fave then Francesca and Hazel. Like them all though!

millzcrawf · 27/09/2021 19:32

Hey! Congratulations on DD2!

Out of your list Hazel is most definitely my favourite.. I think 'Lucy and Hazel' sounds so pretty together💕

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 27/09/2021 19:31

Lucy and hazel is fabulous!
Love Jemima and Silvia
Not keen on Sabine.
Olivia is extremely popular where I am and not at all out there but very pretty.

Love them all but Sylvia is my favourite
