Sylvia and Florence are my top two girls' names at the mo. DS would have been a Sylvia if he was a girl.

TipsyFairydifferentID · 11/12/2008 18:29

Allegra, Sylvia or Jocelyn

Carenza is so pretty! Reminds me of my best friend Carezza.

We are thinking of Sidonie Isabella or Sophia Valentina

I love Esme but partner is not convinced!

zoe99 · 29/11/2008 22:26

I really like Yasmin and Carenza, this is cornish and means loving

Kate, it was my girls name for ds2, and would still be the name I would chose 3 years later.
My girl's name for ds1 however didn't last 6mo after he was born.

We were going to call this one Olivia but it turns out he's a boy. If we can't agree on any boy's names then he'll just have to be Olivia
