Sylvie. It's a lovely name for all stages of womanhood: sweet and girly when wee, but can be sexy, cool and collected for when she's older.
Mabel one of the old-fashioned names that just doesn't do it for me. Makes me think of flowery aprons and big bosoms.

Nell - but I'm biased, that's my DD's name!

I really like Mabel, it's unusual too. I also like Sylvie and Emmeline but not keen on Nell or Clementine.

Xavielli · 08/01/2010 20:57

Nell is the only one I like.

MamaLazarou · 08/01/2010 20:46

They are all nice, except Mabel.

Esmee · 08/01/2010 20:45

They are all really nice, but I think I would have to pick Emmeline! I think it's classic, and unusual but not too 'out there'. Also you have quite a few nickname possibilities if you wanted to shorten it occasionally. Do you have a middle name picked?

FiveGoMadInDorset · 08/01/2010 20:45

Can't choose they are all so nice, if pushed would say Mabel.

pixiestix · 08/01/2010 20:44

In order, I like:
Nell
Sylvie
Emmeline
Clementine
Mabel

Wattinger · 08/01/2010 20:44

What gorgeous names you have chosen! I think my favourites are Nell and Sylvie

thisisyesterday · 08/01/2010 20:42

like them all but my absolute faves are:

Sylvie (or sylvia?)
Emmeline

mathanxiety · 08/01/2010 20:41

Love them all, sorry no help here...

My favourite would be Clementine, if pushed.
I also love Helena.
