Looking for a girls name for baby due in September.

I already have an Anna, and struggling to come up with something for her little sister!

I think I quite like Olive, and also Cora.

What do you think of these? And if I like these... any other suggestions?

I like Cora. Is it derived from the Greek, Kore, daughter/girl? Also associated with Persephone.

I love both Olive and Cora. Sorry not much help!

Jeansmuddy · 06/07/2023 18:37

Cora or maybe even Nora(h)

Anna and Zoe

Cora is beautiful, not a fan of Olive although it does seem to be getting more popular

I have a Cora, so obviously vote that ♥️
Anna was also on my list.
Other names I liked:
Dorothy
Sylvia
Laura
Sophie
Rosa
Katharine (Kitty)

Olive and Anna are lovely. Cora makes me think of a dog's name, but not sure why...

Coffeeandcakemum · 05/07/2023 09:43

My vote is for Olive, lovely name 😊

Laura is better than cora imo

I prefer classic names with Anna.
Olive and Cora, while sweet are less gentle in sound.
