Hi all, due a baby girl in two weeks and DH and I can’t decide on a name, it’s stressing me out. So far we’ve narrowed it down to:

Charlotte
Matilda
Philippa
Isabel

He loves Charlotte, I think it’s ok but don’t feel like it’s ‘the one’. I love Matilda and would go with that in a heartbeat but he isn’t keen.
I realise a compromise is necessary - what are people’s thoughts on these names? Thank you!

I like Matilda.
The only name I dislike is Philippa. What about Phoebe?

Philippa is lovely, and far less common than the other names, if that's an issue.

Philippa is awful (sorry).

Out of the rest my favourite is Isobel

All great, I like Matilda best.
