due sunday and still wibbling about girls names....come offer some sanity to my suggestions pls...

[boodleboot]

what do u think of the following....i have a james and ellie already...

alice
seren
merryn
elizabeth
sophia
margot
emiliana
liliana
lowri
caridwen

would like eve or lily as middle name for family connections....

im leaning toward merryn at moment as is dh but we have been back and forth between all manner of weird and wonderful names....

:)

Have never heard Merryn before but think it's a lovely name. Also really like Alice.

I like them all except Margot (1970s housewife) and Lowri (that annoying tv presenter).

Not sure how you pronounce Caridwen.

I like Merryn (would prefer a spelling of Merrin personally) and Seren - DH wouldn't have either but I think they are lovely. Marin/e and Maren are also nice.

All the best, I'm in a similar position - re names - and also due next week.

alice - too popular now for my liking, but would 'go' with your other DCs names
seren - love it
merryn - pretty, i like
elizabeth - bit boring for me
sophia - nice, prefer Sophie I think, also goes with existing names
margot - not nice
emiliana - too try-hard
liliana - prefer Lily, but soooo popular
lowri - not nice
caridwen - never heard it, sounds quite harsh

Alicia Eve?

alice - all 3 babies I know born this year have been called Alice - but it is a great name
seren - Lovely
merryn - never heard before but it's pretty without being too little girly.
elizabeth - has some good shortenings
sophia - OK
margot - maggie is ok margot isn't
emiliana - bit of a mouthful
liliana - OK
lowri - not sure, I think of matchstick men and the tv presenter
caridwen - OK if you're welsh and live in wales

Alice, Sophia or Merryn.

Emiliana is not a name, its a tongue twister!

looks like merryn is a pretty sane choice given the feedback....at this stage af pregnancy hormentalness u just cant tell sometimes....:)

i am think minnie or merry for nn's?

Merryn Eve or Merryn Lily:

thanks for fb so far!

I think those that go best with your other kids names are;

Alice
Lily
Elizabeth (shortened- lizzy/Eliza?)
Emily
Sophie

Also, you seem to like the ending -Ana. So how about a simple Anne/ Anna?

Good luck on Sunday!

I like Sophia best from your list.

Alice - like, or how about Alyssa?
Seren - not so keen, but I like Serena
Merryn - not keen, don't like the sound
Elizabeth - nice
Sophia - like :)
Emiliana - like, also like Emily
Liliana - like
Lowri - dislike
Caridwen - not keen

How about

Juliana
Marianne
Sara
Aurora
Evelina
Estella
Carina
Emma
Abigail
Alexandra

alice - very nice - one of my all time favourites.
seren - another one of my faves!
merryn - not heard, but quite nice without being twee
elizabeth - classic, timeless
sophia - lovely
margot - not my taste
emiliana - fussy
liliana - fussy
lowri - ok, not my taste
caridwen - quite nice - are you Welsh?

Sorry, missed out Margot, but I don't like it I'm afraid. It's too similar to maggot.

I really like Merryn, it's lovely. I think Merryn Lily has a lovely sound to it, Merryn Eve runs together a little. Merry is a jolly little nn, not so keen on Minnie.

merryn is really lovely, go for it!

Sophia is WAY too popular at the moment. If I get another baby announcement introducing a Sophia/Sofia/Sophie I am going to scream.

Elizabeth - definitely.

alice - Perfectly nice, but not my favourite
seren - Lovely. Really lovely
merryn - Nice, but I slightly prefer Seren
elizabeth - Great classic, lots of good nns
sophia - Not keen
margot - Like, but nns (Marge?) not great
emiliana - No, too frilly for me
liliana - Same
lowri - Not keen
caridwen - Too difficult to say (unless you live in wales)

I vote for Seren, Merryn or Elizabeth.

Not that you need another option but... Bethan?

Alice is lovely.

Margot or Merryn, lovely.

Merryn Elizabeth is nice.

alice
seren
merryn
elizabeth
sophia
margot
emiliana
liliana
lowri
caridwen

Love Seren and Merryn.

Seren Lily
Merryn Eve

Lovely.

They are all nice names (not keen on Lowri, but other than that, all nice!).

Elizabeth with Eliza for short or Margaret with Margot or Maggie for short.

I really like either Margaret Alice or Elizabeth Alice. Or Margaret Eve.

Emiliana is just too gooey. ditto Liliana. Less is more sometimes. These names have too many Ls lalalalalallaallaalalla lia.

I like the strength of some welsh names, like Olwen and Branwen and even Gwyneth! but in the length of time it's taken me to type this sentence, Caridwen has totally grown on me!

Lowri is like a surname. Merryn I like but not with a Y. Is that welsh? I like Muirreann though. presuming similar pronounciation. Good name if so.

Seren, not sure. sophia. ok but prefer Sophie.

Seren jumped out to me, Seren Eve sounds beautiful, and timeless.
Merryn is lovely too.
Good luck for Sunday.
