Hmm, Alice.

Or Rosie with a longer version such as Rosalind.

Linnet · 24/07/2010 12:51

Alice
I like all three,they are lovely names but if it was me I'd go for Alice.

SqueezyB · 24/07/2010 14:02

Martha or Alice - love them both. Rosie is a bit bland imo.

stardustn · 24/07/2010 14:14

Rosie- love that name

It's also nice with a longer version though.

purepurple · 24/07/2010 14:15

Alice, it's my DD's name

SpiderWilliam · 24/07/2010 14:30

Alice gets my vote.

Rosie is a bit too twee unless it is a shortening of something else. Rosemary, Rosamund or even a pet form of just Rose.

Martha ok, but I'm not a big fan of granny chic names generally, and for me this falls into that category.

Fayrazzled · 24/07/2010 14:34

Alice too (but I'm biased as my little girl is Alice).

3plusbump · 24/07/2010 19:19

Alice

hocuspontas · 24/07/2010 19:23

Alice of course. My Alice is gorgeous. I don't know how popular it is where you are now but in 18 years since she was born I've only known about a dozen. Rosie is too popular. I like Martha as well but not as much as Alice!

autodidact · 24/07/2010 19:25

All nice. I would choose Rosie, I think. Prefer Rosa though.

bubbles12 · 24/07/2010 19:32

Love all three names! My DD1 is an Alice so that gets my vote although Rose and Martha were my other 2 choices!!

thighsmadeofcheddar · 24/07/2010 19:38

Alice. Middle name for DD2. Love it.

stressheaderic · 24/07/2010 19:42

I love all 3 too, you have great taste! Would prob go for Alice as is DD's middle name.

blametheparents · 24/07/2010 19:44

Martha - definitely!

Pogue909 · 24/07/2010 19:46

Martha!

freerangeeggs · 24/07/2010 19:49

They're all lovely.

Alice is very pretty, but Martha is a bit more interesting. Rosie is lovely but I'd prefer it as a nickname for Rose - I met an adult Rosie and I did find it slightly twee on her.

Alice or Martha, then :D

telsa · 24/07/2010 20:42

Alice - lovely and classic.

Jojay · 24/07/2010 20:44

NoahAndTheWhale · 24/07/2010 20:48

Alice

I have a nice 4 year old one

Tillyscoutsmum · 24/07/2010 20:48

I vote Martha - gorgeous name. The others are both pretty though

UnholyMoley · 24/07/2010 20:50

Martha.

KristinaM · 24/07/2010 20:51

Alice

or Rosie as long as its short for a more formal name

weaselm4 · 24/07/2010 20:58

Martha (I've got a 17 month old one and the name suits her really well )
