Please help me pick my daughter’s name. We have an Emilie and Florence. We are expecting a third daughter and I like both of names but can’t decide which to go for:

Phoebe
Matilda

I also like Eliza but might use that as a middle name. Another option I love for a middle name is Autumn…is that acceptable for a November baby? Thank you.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I like Matilda the best

Agree with previous poster that Matilda Autumn is lovely

Oh I love them both. And your other girls names, all beautiful. I’m slightly swayed towards Matilda but I love them both

I love them both. Very hard to choose between.

I think Matilda flows better with other names. It's easier to spell and pronounce phonetically. I love the story of Matilda as well.

Phoebe is less popular though, less likely to be one of multiple Phoebe's in the same class, which is a risk with Matilda I think.

Maybe wait until she gets here and see what she feels like?

Matilda. Great name with lots of options for nn: Mattie, Millie, Tillie, Tilda.

It also avoids two children's names starting with the same sound.

All your names are lovely! I’d go with Matilda just based on how it flows with your other daughters names.

Matilda Autumn is gorgeous.
