Absolutely gorgeous names, both of them.

I'd choose Daphne. I just adore it.

In reality I'd never have got either of them past DH, and we had boys anyway.

Maybe Daphne is due a come back at some point like other names of that era.
For me, I associate it with a chain smoking woman in her 70's/80's. I also don't like the sound- Daph, like Daffy Duck.

Not a fan at all, but if you like it, that is all that matters.
