TTC DC2 and would love a girl.

How about these names? If you had to pick one which would it be?

Aurelia
Hermione
Cordelia
Henrietta
Anastasia
Clementine
Daphne

Any other suggestions along the same lines?

oh well if you are asking my list would include,

nina

rachel

matilda

juliet/juliette

elizabeth

sophia

anna

lucy

i am sure there are loads more.
not sure if you will like any of my suggestions, and just for the record, i hope you do not think i was being rude, i just do not personally like the names you have chosen.
it would be a very boring world if we all agreed, all of the time.

Beatrix
Romilly
Aurelia
Hermione
Cordelia
Henrietta
Anastasia
Clementine
Daphne

Not sure I would be brave enough to use any of these, but I don't dislike them (I mean they all seem quite posh)!

I like the sound of Romilly and I like Henrietta as you can shorten it to Henry.

How about Ottilie? I love this but DH has vetoed it, so I am offering it to you!

midnightexpress · 16/01/2009 14:23

I like Beatrix (and Beatrice, in fact I prefer the latter) and Romilly. Not so keen on the others.

PuppyMonkey · 16/01/2009 14:21

Ooh, look - Cordelia's gaining ground...

ohdearwhatamess · 16/01/2009 14:17

Like Beatrix or Hermione

Don't mind Cordelia or Henrietta

Not keen on the others

BlueChampagne · 16/01/2009 14:05

Cordelia

cyteen · 16/01/2009 14:05

cordelia - love it. don't really like any of the others.

daisyj · 16/01/2009 14:04

Romilly is lovely - definitely my favourite

eachpeach - I'm loving Elodie! I like that you can't really shorten it, too.

kidcreoleandthecoconuts · 16/01/2009 14:03

Henrietta

PuppyMonkey · 16/01/2009 14:01

I'm the only one that likes Cordelia then.

WindUpBird · 16/01/2009 13:59

Beatrix

KatB · 16/01/2009 13:36

Romilly or Clementine

lljkk · 16/01/2009 12:51

I don't like any of them.
Henrietta is almost cool, but there are dozens of names I like better.

Sesi · 16/01/2009 12:25

I really like, Aurelia, Anastasia and Cordelia.

Hermione and Henrietta are nice but not my taste.

The others no. Beatrix and Romilly are a bit prim. Daphne and Clementine awful imo.

Georgiana (pronounced George-Jayna) is one I like.

skyblu · 16/01/2009 12:02

I like Aurelia. Very pretty.

EachPeachPearMum · 16/01/2009 12:02

Beatrix
then Aurelia
Both were on my list, but we're having a DS.

Others were-
Cecily
Margot
Elodie

lastboxoftampons · 16/01/2009 11:55

I only like Daphne and Clementine to be honest.

CharCharGabor · 16/01/2009 11:55

I like Aurelia

nailpolish · 16/01/2009 11:53

clementine is thoroughly awful - sounds like a cartoon character
please dont pick that

Gorionine · 16/01/2009 11:51

I absolutely love the name Hermione. All the other are also very nice and feminine though, very nice selection of names!

Nancy66 · 16/01/2009 11:51

In order of preferance:

Beatrix
clementine
Anastasia
hermione
Henrietta

the other 4 I don't like - especially daphne! Really like the other five though.
