Which name would you pick if you had to choose between either please? Both match sibling names and surname. Neither are my first choice but my husband isn’t keen on that and likes both and they are the closest to a compromise I think. Thank you.

Clara is lovely.
Beatrice is not.

They are both lovely. My preference is Clara. It feels so elegant.

Clara is one of my favourite names and would definitely be on my shortlist for a girl. Phoebe is lovely too but Clara wins!

Beatrice is lovely.

absolute NO for me re Clara. (No offence intended to anyone reading this with that name)

Beatrice. I don't like Clara.

(I like Cara but don't like Beatrix, before anyone suggests them Smile)
