We are 7 months pregnant with a baby girl (first). Don't even have a couple of slight favourites yet Sad

It's sooo difficult!

I think May (or Mae) is lovely. I like those 3 letter girls names. I like Ann too, it’s also very sweet and classic.

I had Kesiah on my girls name list. Sounds modern but is old fashioned. I have an ancestor of that name which was where I first saw it.

Glad mine were boys because I struggle with girl names.
I'd look around at your 'family' names Grannys, great Aunties, see if you can even find a shortened version you like.
