Grace isn't an ugly sound! It must be your voice/accent.

Why would you want a name that's ugly in any accent?

No need to be nasty to a poster who has a different opinion to you

Sophie

How is Willow faddy? All the Willow's I know are young adults. It's hardly a new name.

Yes, people talking about the name being faddy and dating badly - all 3 Willow's I know are in their 20's!

Willow

Sophia

Alice is lovely.

Grace is beautiful but I know a grace and she is the opposite of graceful, the name really doesn't suit her! I'd avoid names that you have to kind of 'fit' just in case it doesn't work.

Alice. Because I know a baby Grace, Willow, Sophie and Sofia.

OopsieeDaisy · 05/06/2023 22:00

I personally can’t stand Willow and agree with others that it will probably date fast.

Love Sophie, pretty and classic, not as overused as Sophia. Alice is also nice.

Grace is a little boring and is also quite overused.

Willow. DH wanted Alice but for me it reminds me of the song ‘Alice, who the f* is Alice’.

As someone who's first name is Alice, can confirm I have had this sung at me more times than I can count 😂

CherryLingo · 05/06/2023 21:44

Alice

Alice!

78Summer · 05/06/2023 21:40

Love Grace and Sophia.

ShandaLear · 05/06/2023 21:39

Alice

(though if you wanted another with a similar feel, Anna is a beautiful, simple, classic, name)

Willow is the name of Will Smith’s daughter. It’s a nice name but quite studied and fey.

Sophie and Grace both perfectly nice.

Willow

Willow
Grace
Sophia

In that order.

Not keen on Sophie. Don't like Alice

AlbertaWildRose · 05/06/2023 21:35

I love Willow!

continentallentil · 05/06/2023 21:32

Grace - warm and elegant and not overused as a first name

Sophia and Alice are way overused

Willow is a bit wet.. and what if she isn’t willowy?! I wouldn’t want to be a solid Willow

Hoolihan · 05/06/2023 21:29

In order:

  1. Alice (LOVE)
  2. Grace
  3. Willow
  4. Sophie/a
AnotherDayAnotherUsernameForMe · 05/06/2023 21:27

Alice

NotNowFGS · 05/06/2023 21:24

Willow is going to date horribly.

RoseBucket · 05/06/2023 21:23

Alice or Sophia.

Willow sounds ok for a child but I don’t know why, odd for an adult.

I know two Graces and they are both anything but, so that might be swaying my train of thought

ShoesoftheWorld · 05/06/2023 21:21

Sophia, by miles. It's popular, but they all are.
