These are our final three girls names (I think!)
Shirley (my favourite)
Doris (dp fav) Dorrie for nn
Eileen

DP doesn't like 'frilly' names so can't get things l love like Cordelia, Sally or Ramona past him at all!!

I never used to see Shirley on a child, but when did was 4 (she's now 16) she demanded to be called Shirley for ages and I've adored it ever since!!

Opinion?

Not a fan of anything Dorrie as full name not nn

You are obviously going for a retro vibe!

I'm not a huge fan of any of your names if I'm honest but Shirley would be my choice if pushed

Doris is grim!

Eileen isn't awful but to me it conjures up the image of a 70 year old

Shirley sounds dated right now but think it has the most potential to sound fresh on a young girl

I like Dorrie but not so keen on Doris.
