We found out today that DC2 is going to be a girl, which is what we were both secretly hoping for..!

What do you think of Nancy? It is our current fore-runner and has been at the top of the list since finding out I was pregnant with DS.

Other names we love are:

Edith
Esther
Mathilda
Stella
Martha
Phoebe
April

TIA

Nancy (yes yes)
Esther (like it)
Stella (beautiful name but would think of McCartney)
Martha (lovely name)
Phoebe (my great-aunt. I really really like it, curse Friends)
Mathilda (OK)
Edith
April (not so keen)

I love love love Nancy.

DS2 was going to be Nancy or Helena. Obviously HE isn't.

It's such a fantastic name - gutsy yet pretty, unpretentious, not many about. Makes me think of Swallows and Amazons and Nancy Mitford.

April is DH's left-field suggestion. The only real significance is that it is the month we got married, but I think this might be disgustingly twee and vomit-inducing.

Edith is one of his faves too - I'm not so keen as Evie/Edie seem to be very popular.

Cloelia - you've chosen our favourites in exactly the order we like them!

Nancy, Esther, Stella, Mathilda, lovely.
Edith I don't like, along with Martha, I find them hardish names.
Phoebe is v popular.
April begs the obvious question ....
Congrats!
