Tallulah or Jessica?

Our baby is due any time soon and we are still not decided on a girls name (have chosen a boys).

Jessica we like as it's traditional and flexible (able to shorten), but maybe a little too 'safe' as a choice.

We also like Tallulah, again an old traditional name and flexible, but we are not sure if it's a little bit too unusual.

Please shared some opinions with me to help us decide!

Think Jessica will age much better than Tallulah. Not sure a 25 year old Tallulah filling in job applications would thank you too much.

Definitely Jessica.

Jessica.

Tallulah is the sort of name I would have hated to have been given.
