We I am stuck for a girl's name - with me only having DD2 last September I am all named out.

Found out on Monday DC3 is another girl (well 95%) and I need some inspiration.

DD1 is Grace Elisabeth
DD2 is Maya Rose (yes I know, I know, I know Rose is too popular as a middle name...)

So please help!

DH is quite happy to just go along with what I want...

pgwithnumber3.... camille [mimi] is gorgeous!!

my dd2 is called Anya, but when i was pg, my bump was called mimichu

dp wanted to call her mimi, and we still call her mimichu, even now, but i never thought of camille, or i would have defs gone with that!!

i do love anya, as a name though, and she suits her name very much, plus dps grandfather was polish, so it was sort of fitting.
as a middle name i would suggest,lucy or nina
or rachel, all really strong and mega cute names.

when are you due?
xx

Alexandra just made me think of Sasha which goes well with Grace and Maya.

Surname begins with an O - quite common surname.

Liking Camille Alexandra the best!

Lulumama will go mad, the other week I decided (with her input) on Louisa Hope!

Camille Eloise
Camille Helena
Camille Honora
Camille Olivia
Camille Luisa
Camille Cordelia
Camille Alexandra

I think it sounds better with a longer middle name

Oh yes dizzy I tried to persuade you to call her Coco!!

TheNaughtiestGirlKeepsaSecret · 17/09/2008 22:17

Mimi is nice. As a nn.

dizzydixies · 17/09/2008 22:14

i loved sylvie for dd3 but it was just too close to dd2's name

what about Iris or pearl? both very boho!!
or Celeste or Cecelia or Beatrice?

lol at running it past you mum dh pgwith3, my mum never approved of any of our name choices and dd1 and dd2 were variations of family names, goodness knows what she would've made of dd3!!!

sylvie
camille
ruby

we high up for dd3, Cordelia was a last minute entry which we just seemed to run with about she's not called that iyswim?

I def think Camille and Sylvie are the top two options though

TheNaughtiestGirlKeepsaSecret · 17/09/2008 22:13

Polly or Dulcie or Lois are kind of bohemian chic imo. Edie/Edith, Maggie, Greta, Thea, Honor..

Any of these feel close/

I know what you mean TheNaughiest, I remember reading in a baby name book last year that classed Grace and Maya as bohemian type names. I need something bohemianish to go with them.

OP posts:
TheNaughtiestGirlKeepsaSecret · 17/09/2008 22:05

Grace, Maya and Polly
Grace, Maya and Susie
Grace, Maya and Flora
Grace, Maya and Joy
I like the suggestion of Sylvie.

From your list I like Anya and Zara.

I like Louisa too, but it's not quite as good a match with sisters' names, stylistically. (if stylistically is a word).
