Pleasseeeee help.

Can we have a baby together? They’d be beautifully named and would be much easier then agreeing one with DH 😂

Your list is VERY similar to mine. We settled on Spencer in the end. If I’d been alone I think I would have gone for Seren or Thea or Sloane (but I had to take DH views into account!).

Ahh, a baby eel is an elver.

Verity Jolie would be lovely.

Isn't Alva a baby eel?

to help you shorten it I have given fairly brief feedback

Fae Dislike the sound
Liona Dislike, though do like Leoni
Kassia nice, also like Alexis
Willow nice
Inez not unless you are Spanish
Ailsa nice
Holly nice
Seren nice
Brooke dates
Verity dated but nice
Romy dated but nice
Leesa dislike
Phoebe like
Spencer it’s a boy’s name
Melody dislike
Emelina dislike
Ivy dislike
Tate name of a horrible sounding man in the news
Alva name of a town
Genevieve like
Meadow not a name
Elle dated
Nova okay
Jolie dated
Maribelle dislike

My top 3 would be Seren, Phoebe and Jolie

Fae - I don't like it
Liona - I don't like it, I like Leonie alternatively
Kassia - I don't like it, I like Cassy/Cassie alternatively
Willow - it's alright but has grown too popular/overused in the past few years
Inez - quite like this
Ailsa - not keen. Wouldn't know how to pronounce it properly?
Holly - it's alright
Seren - it's alright
Brooke - LOVE
Verity - don't like it, feels uptight to me
Romy - really like this
Leesa - not keen. Would potentially grow on me as a name coming back around again if spelled Lisa (although I'm still not sure if it's ready for a comeback)
Phoebe - classic, always like this one
Spencer - love this on a girl but I got some controversial comments when I considered it
Melody - quite like this
Emelina - really don't like this
Ivy - LOVE
Tate - LOVE, again got some controversial comments when I considered it for a girl too
Alva- would grow on me
Genevieve - only like this for the nickname Ginny
Meadow - I want to like this but always feels a bit too 'try hard'
Elle - LOVE
Nova - LOVE
Jolie - LOVE
Maribelle - no

I like and would only use:
Cassia
Inez
Phoebe
Genevieve

My favourite eight, inspired from your list ..

Phoebe
Inez
Ellen
Leonor
Lisa
Holly
Mariella
Genevieve

These are all lovely:
Cassia
Inez
Verity
Genevieve

So pick what goes best with your surname

Don’t use younique spellings, they are really naff and will drive her mad for life

Fae - no, it’s drippy enough spelt Fay
Liona - meh
Kassia - lovely spelt properly - Cassia
Willow - wet
Inez - love it
Ailsa - ok
Holly - meh and only for a Christmas baby
Seren - ok
Brooke - ok
Verity - love it
Romy - no, faddy
Leesa - It’s too early to revive Lisa, and it will blur with the endless Lola/Leila/Lara/Leah/Luna names
Phoebe - ok, popular
Spencer - don’t be silly, he’s an estate agent
Melody - no because she’ll be Mel
Emelina - ok, bit fussy - it’s Emmelina I suppose as it’s Emmeline
Ivy - nice but popular
Tate - don’t be ridiculous
Alva - 1960/s depressed barmaid
Genevieve - lovely
Meadow - silly
Elle - way overdone - she’ll be one of a zillion Ellies
Nova - meh

Jolie - silly and what if she isn’t pretty? (Or jolly for that matter)
Maribelle - sounds like processed cheese

Romy is my favourite from them

I also like Remi/Remy and Wren/Renn

Very varied list there OP!

Fae - like but prefer it spelled Fay
Liona - not a fan but it's not bad
Kassia - no
Willow - no
Inez - no
Ailsa - LOVE - not a name you hear enough anymore imo
Holly - meh
Seren - like
Brooke - like
Verity - like
Romy - no
Leesa - would forever be having to spell it
Phoebe - like but getting popular
Spencer - sounds more like a boys name to me (I know in PLL there's a girl Spencer's but not a fan)
Melody - no too frilly
Emelina - no
Ivy - like
Tate - no the associations with Andrew Tate would put me off
Alva - no it's the name of a town
Genevieve - no
Meadow - no
Elle - really like but so many El names about now
Nova - love
Jolie - like
Maribelle* - no
*
My shortlist would be:
Fay, Ailsa, Nova, Jolie.

If you like Fae, would you consider Rae?
Josie for Jolie?

Emelina makes me think of Semolina

The top 4 especially!!

Personal order of preference:

1. Spencer
2. Kassia
3. Seren
4. Tate
5. Ivy
6. Genevieve
7. Elle
8. Verity
9. Nova
10. Phoebe
11. Melody
12. Jolie
13. Liona
14. Inez
15. Ailsa
16. Brooke
17. Jolie
18. Emelina
19. Willow
20. Holly
21. Alva
22. Leesa
23. Fae
24. Maribelle
25. Romy

Alva is lovely

I had a whole answer to this typed and DS is just hopping from boob to boob every 5 seconds and deleted it

So condensed answer :

Ivy or Holly

I absolutely love:
Inez (prefer Inès spelling though)
Verity
Phoebe
Genevieve

Can’t stand:
Liona (looks like Lion, Iona is pretty though)
Spencer (idiot man off Made in Chelsea)
Leesa (Lisa trying to be yoonique??)
Emelina (looks made up and reminds me off Evelina children’s hospital)
Tate (Andrew 🤢)
Meadow (Soprano)

The rest are fine, just not massively my taste.

The ones I like are: Fay (but not Fae), Seren, Ivy, Verity, Brooke, Romy
The ones I think are fine but wouldn't use myself: Willow, Inez, Ailsa, Holly, Phoebe, Melody, Meadow
The ones I really don't like: Liona, Kassia, Leesa, Spenser (for a girl?!), Emelina, Tate, Alva, Genevieve, Elle, Nova, Jolie, Maribelle

Given that we clearly have very different preferences, you might want to choose from the list I don't like!

I like Kassia , Inez , Roma and Brooke best . Call her Brooke , my adult sons best friend is called Brooke and she’s a lovely person .

Instead of referring to
The bump/he baby/peanut call her by one of the names and change it each week. You'll be surprised how quickly some names don't feel right

Top 5:
Seren
Holly
Leesha (but perhaps a different spelling? Where I'm from it'd be spelled Laoise)
Emelina
Alva (but not this spelling)

Bottom 5:
Willow - reminds me of a tree or a dog
Spencer - too manly
Ivy - poison
Tate - noooooo
Meadow - a field

Melody
Meadow
Genevieve
Romy

The ones I love are

Willow
Brooke
Verity
Phoebe
Melody
Genevieve
Nova

I'd narrow down to...

Ailsa
Verity
Phoebe
Genevieve

You've picked a few names starting with Me - do you like Meredith?

Cassia with Fae as middle name. Perfection!
