…..will not be Mary obviously 😂 but which names do you think sound like a good fit?

I liked Beatrix last time but went with Martha instead, I don’t think I would choose it this time either.

I quite like Elsie, Mabel, Maisie and Nancy but not 100% sold on any on them so I would love some suggestions!

Thank you 😊

I love Nancy! How about Esther?

I know a Martha and Libby.

I think Elsie is the nicest of your names and goes very well with Martha.

We’d probably have had a Martha if DC2 had been a second girl. DD1 is Grace. We also liked Susannah, Tabitha, Marianne and Kate.

Nancy is gorgeous.

I knew elderly sisters called Martha and Christabel.

Personally I'd go for another 2 syllable name but would steer clear of another M name.

My aunt Martha’s sisters are Marlene and Marcia - sorry, not helpful but in my grandma’s defence, they were born in the 30s/40s Grin
