Registering DD tomorrow and still unsure on name!

DD is 6 weeks old this week and we're registering her tomorrow.

After exhaustive and fruitless discussions on names, I agreed to go with DH's favourite - Margot - mainly because I felt under pressure to name her and I didn't have any names I really loved.

We have announced her name to family and friends but the trouble is I don't love it. I don't hate it, but I'm aware it's a bit of a marmite name and, having spent too much time on MN threads, I'm aware of all the criticisms of the name

I would favour a softer sounding name, along the lines of Evelynn, Martha, or Freya.

Please help me out with suggestions, or if you think I should stick with Margot and hope that she grows into her name and I grow to love it.

Martha and Freya are gorgeous names. One of those

Martha and Freya are two of my favourite names. What does DH think?

Other names I love, as we seem to have similar taste, are:

Rosa
Daisy
Esther
Harriet
Eve
