Alice

I like Grace and Alice. Probably Alice slightly more as what if she’s not graceful. I do like Grace though and I know people say Grace is a common middle name but that doesn’t put me off as no one knows each others’ middle names and you just think of people by their first name.

I feel Olivia and Sophia, although nice have been too popular and that would put me off them.

Daisy has grown on me.

Grace is a beautiful name.
Have you also thought of:

Lydia
Lottie
Claudia
Clara
Darcy

Grace 🥰 we are naming our baby girl Grace. I think it's an over used middle name, but I don't think it's very common as a first name? I think it adds to the beauty of it.

We've struggled with a middle name for that reason though, don't think many names go with Grace. I think we decided on Grace Harriet ❤️🎀

I like Alice best.

Babydust13 · 24/01/2022 05:50

Alice is a lovely name

Ceramide · 24/01/2022 05:18

Top three would be Sophia, Grace, Daisy.

RichPetunia · 24/01/2022 05:15

Alice or Mia

hivemindneeded · 22/01/2022 22:51

Sophia is the best girl's name ever, even if it is a bit overused.

Sophia Grace is such a good name.

Alice and Grace are my favourites, love them both. The others on your list are lovely too

ihatesoaps · 19/01/2022 23:00

I love Aurelia...elegant and classy.
I think it's the name of the Portuguese girl that Colin Firth's character marries in Love Actually!

CharlieBoo · 19/01/2022 22:56

Alice and Daisy are my favourites x

Freddie456 · 19/01/2022 10:04

Our lists have some crossover… here’s my shortlist in case we have similar tastes:

Grace
Olivia
Isabella
Verity
Allegra
Ophelia
Mabel

I also like all of the other names on your list.

Mumofgirls2017 · 18/01/2022 07:34

I love Aurelia and it’s a little bit more unusual than the others where she may be one of several in class etc. If that’s important to you. I also love Daisy and Alice though. They are all pretty safe choices so you won’t go wrong.

PattyPan · 17/01/2022 18:13

Sophia! I love that name. Alice and Grace are nice as well.

Violetandpurple · 17/01/2022 18:10

I love Daisy
Alice Is on our list
Grace very pretty

pilates · 17/01/2022 13:44

I like them all except Aurelia

urbanbuddha · 17/01/2022 13:36

Alice

WouldBeGood · 17/01/2022 13:19

Daisy. I love it.

I always think calling a child Grace is a bit risky, in case they are very much not graceful 😃

WhoppingBigBackside · 17/01/2022 13:17

Daisy - ok
Mia - overused
Alice - would pick
Olivia - overused
Sophia - overused
Grace- don't like the sounds in it
Aurelia- too frilly

Polly271220 · 17/01/2022 13:10

Mia

ISmellBurnings · 17/01/2022 13:01

I like Aurelia, the rest are just so so common. Grace and Mia especially. Not a fan of Daisy as it’s a bit twee.

MintyGreenDream · 17/01/2022 11:12

Aurelia and Alice are the only ones that arent common in the school i work in so id vote for those two
