She's 24 hours old and still no name...!

[ShinyWorthKeeping]

I think we have it narrowed down between 2... she's my 3rd and final baby girl so needs to be perfect.
List has been whittled down from about 14 names...
Harmony or Vanessa?

Something else

From those two, Vanessa.

You have six weeks to decide…

something else , I don’t think she’ll thank you for either sadly

Harmony makes me think of hairspray. Friends will inevitably shorten it to Harm. Congratulations on your new baby.

Congratulations. Those are some quite random names to be honest....and such a different vibe to each other. Id go for Vanessa at a push.

I always imagine a name being shouted across a playground in the local dialect to get an idea of how it feels. What looks nice written down or spoken quietly can take on a whole new vibe when shouted.

Harmony is likely to be Harm/ie and Vanessa likely to be Ness/a/ er . The point is which one can you live with.

Vanessa.

Neither would be my choice.

I voted for something else. Hermione?

Somethingbelse. And take your time! DS wasn’t finally named until he was being walked to the register office to be registered.

What about Veronica?

Harmony is beautiful

something else

what are your other children called so we can make some suggestions

Neither

24hrs is nothing! I waited a couple of weeks with each of mine to get to know them a bit and let the hormones calm down!

I quite like Vanessa. A friend’s DD is Vanessa but is often called Ness. So depends if that would bother you.

What about Vivienne? Vivi quite cute for a nickname.

I always wanted a Phoebe. Sadly only had a boy and it didn’t suit him!

Neither-I know a Harmony and she gets called Harm. The only Vanessa I’ve ever know had it shortened to Ness/Nessa which immediately gives Gavin and Stacey vibes! 🤣 There are so many more beautiful girls’ names!
Oh and congratulations!!!

Our local Chinese is called Harmony (sorry 😐) so I would say Vanessa but it reminds me of Nessa from Barry Island

What were the other names and what are your other children called?

Cross post 🤣

Vanessa but the danger is being called Nessie as a nickname.
Probably would go for something else tbh

Robin!

don’t worry i was in the office registering the name 6 weeks later before finally deciding 😆

If you want something musical how about:
Melody
Aria
Allegra
Or something longer and traditional:
Genevieve
Jacqueline
Charlotte
Victoria
?

Vanessa
