I would really value some advice from other mums/mums-to-be on naming my little girl who is due to be born very soon.
I'm looking for a name that is quite unusual but not too strange. This is my list so far:

Freya (is it too popular?)
Annabel - would probably be shortened to Annie
Evany
Verity (too posh? - if there is such a thing!)
Xanthe (would people be able to pronounce it?)
Aura
Ember
Tula

Ds is Finley. Do you think it matters if his sister also has a name beginning with F, or ending with y or ie?

Thanks!

Anna is another nice name, not much you can do to shorten it, although children always find a way.

I like Annabel from you list, my dd has a friend with this name and either gets Annie or Bel.

Don't like Ember, prefer Amber.

I would chose Verity. Beautiful name.

Finlay and Verity sound fine together.
