I'm currently pregnant with my last baby, a girl.

My eldest DC suggested the name Emily and has been calling her that ever since. My DH really likes Emily.

I don't mind Emily, it's pretty. I just find it a little...boring? I think every Emily I've ever met was privileged and boring and unremarkable.

Also my other children have Irish names, so I'd probably favour an Irish name.

Can anyone suggest other names I could put forward?

Or variations/ nicknames in the vein of Emily but a bit less bland?

Other names that have been considered include: Holly, Clara, Chloe.
