So here are mine and DP’s top 3 lists.

Mine are (in order of preference) Indie, Eden and Piper.

His are (in order) Quinn, Norah and Nola

My name is Laura so I’m not sure how I feel about Norah.

DS loves River, which I like but babies surname is a type of weed so I think it makes it sound silly.

Thoughts?

I don’t expect everyone to like our names but thank you for your opinions.

We already have two very boisterous boys so odds are she isn’t going to be a girly girl so a name like Isabella/Ophelia/Daisy just won’t work. I am also a bit of a tomboy!

I don’t like Stella as that just reminds me of Artois, an Astra is a Vauxhall and I have no idea how to pronounce Oona. 🤣

To be fair if I’m pushing the baby out I get the final say right 🤭

Sorry, not that keen on any of them, but yours are nicer than his.

if I had to choose out of those I'd go with Piper. I thought it was odd at first, but I know a little piper and she's gorgeous!

I like your names.

Not Norah as that rhymes.

Luredbyapomegranate · 18/08/2022 18:39

I don’t really like any of them sorry, Norah is the least bad and I don’t like it.

Maybe something like Stella, Astra, Oona, if Norah is too close to your name.

Indie - newspaper
Eden - no. Ede is awful
Piper - no
Quinn - nn can look like m
Norah - best of the bunch but I'm not keen
Nola - no

Laura and Norah don't quite rhyme but are similar
River - tricky with a lot of surnames and a bit too rivery

Go for River Eden.

Love: Eden, Piper, Nola

Indie - Nice, however prefer India and Indie as a NN.
Quinn - Sounds too boyish
Norah - Really nice but wouldn’t choose it if it rhymes with your name
