Really can't decide on a name for our overdue baby girl... can't decide between Alicia, Alissa, Lilia, Isabella, Tabitha or Alexa.. In fact think thats maybe why she's refusing to come out!
Want something pretty, a little different, but not out there ie apple; and not something overused or chavvy. English sounding too.
Opinions be soo welcome, or rating suggested names?
Anything..

Thans so much.

Alicia - I like sounds good old or young
Alissa - not keen
Lilia - very strictly but not sure anyone will remember that in years to come
Isabella - nice but a few around if that bothers your
Tabitha - interesting
Alexa - I wanted this but couldn't use it

littleboyblue · 30/01/2009 20:50

OrmIrian · 28/01/2009 14:58

Tabitha or Alice.

WinkyWinkola · 28/01/2009 14:57

Tabitha.

It's unusual and really pretty.

Rachybabes · 28/01/2009 14:22

I would definately go with Alice...looking at your choices, i think it is sooo close to what you like , yet it is far more classic and soooooo beautiful !! xx

Springflower · 29/11/2008 17:55

Tabitha

BabyTalk13 · 29/11/2008 00:01

LuckySalem · 25/11/2008 16:51

DD (Aaliyah) was going to be an Alicia till we found out her DOB was the same as Aaliyah (RnB singer who died in plane crash)

Hulababy · 25/11/2008 16:51

From OP list - prefer Lilia or Isabella

ruty · 25/11/2008 16:50

Beatrix is a briilant name, wish i'd thought of it for dd actually.

mickeylou · 25/11/2008 16:48

Isabella and Alexa for me.

OracleInaCoracle · 09/11/2008 08:58

i love tabitha!

fizzpops · 09/11/2008 08:56

Isabella and Tabitha are the only ones from that list that I would think of as 'English' specifically. Both lovely but Isabella more popular. Do love Annabel too.
