My baby girl is due in a few weeks and we are really struggling to choose a name.

Which do you prefer of the above?

We will probably wait until she’s born to see what we think she suits but it’s driving me mad not being prepared.

There are many other names I would rather call her but sadly my partner doesn’t like any of them 🤦🏻‍♀️

Emma - it’s sparky but a classic

I like Sophie too but there have been so many Sophias recently

I’m less keen on Phoebe though it’s perfectly nice. It’s quite of the moment

I like Sophie best, then Emma.

Phoebe

Phoebe is my favourite, then Sophie, then Emma. All good names actually!

I love Phoebe!
Sophie and Emma are both nice too, but Phoebe has more character.

Sophie is lovely. Makes a change from Sophia. I like Emma too.

They are all lovely names!

Like you write, wait until she is born, and see what name seems to suit her. They are good names, all three of them.

Emma is my favourite and Sophie is a close second - both lovely names, not faddy or frilly, just elegant and timeless. If I had an imaginary third dd these would be on my shortlist.

Phoebe is great too.
