Baby is finally here and we’re down to these two for our second DD. First (now four) is Mabel. What are your thoughts? :-)

Congratulations Thanks

Cleo would be my choice as well Smile

Cleo for me, very pretty. And congrats!

Penny is lovely!

I prefer Cleo. But Penny goes better with Mabel.

toastofthetown · 04/11/2021 19:28

I prefer Cleo. It feels bright and fresher to me.

TempsPerdu · 04/11/2021 19:00

Much prefer Cleo - it’s a much stronger name.

Penny.

Probably doesn't matter but I feel Cleo has a vert different vibe to Mabel.

Penelope, Penny as a NN.

TipseyTorvey · 04/11/2021 18:36

They're both lovely but I know three puppies called mabel 🐶😂, so I'd go for Cleo.

WaltzingToWalsingham · 04/11/2021 18:34

I think they're both beautiful, classic names. Penny is probably my favourite but both are gorgeous. Which one goes best with your surname/ how would the initials look?

Congratulations! I would go with Cleo as well Smile

I prefer Cleo.

riotlady · 04/11/2021 18:16

I love both of them (and Mabel, you have great taste!) but I think Cleo slightly edges it for me

Creepypastard · 04/11/2021 18:11

Mabel & Penny - pretty! Congratulations Flowers
