This is our short list, time is running out.

Which do you like best? Any downsides we haven't thought of?

If we like those, what other names should we consider?

I don’t like Zoe or Sian, Lily and Emily are pretty but very simple and there are a lot of them, which is fine but isn’t my preference
and Claudia is lovely and seems totally different to the other 4, to me.

Lily is immensely popular so it’s become overused and a bit dull if I’m honest. Every school must have a Lily Rose/Lily May/Lily Grace (so overdone).

I like Zoe. Sian is ok as long as it’s pronounced properly.

Claudia - lovely

Emily - nice but quite popular

Lily - Again, nice but VERY popular

Zoe - like it a lot (but prefer it spelled as Zoë)

Sian - another pretty name but often mispronounced unless you're in Wales (people will read as Sy-ann instead of Sh-ah-n). And if you are intending it to be the Welsh name, it's spelled Siân.

I really like them all.

If my 5 month old son had have been a girl we had chosen Zoe so that’s my pick as my favourite of your list.
