Alice. Surprises me it doesn't get used more. I don't know any little Alice's...

All beautiful names, I don’t think you could go wrong with any of them. In order of my preference: Mia, Charlotte, Grace, Alice, Sophia, Penelope
What do you hope your little one will be like? Maybe that can help narrow down a name that matches.

I love Sophia and grace.

Not my taste,very plain and predictable.

They're all quite widely used at the moment apart from Penelope and Mia. All perfectly acceptable names, but likely to meet several others with the same or similar names - I don't know if that would be an issue for you? I think Mia is my favourite.

Sophia - It's pretty but very popular. There are loads in my local area, and loads of Sophie's too

Penelope / Penny - love Penny but not keen on Penelope. It feels very formal

Alice - pretty enough. I prefer it as a middle name. Again it's gaining in popularity in my area.

Mia - lovely. Short and sweet. I only know one

Charlotte - it's ok, a bit boring. Lottie's are everywhere but I like the NN Charley

Grace - nice enough

Mia is my favourite
