Currently thinking of:

Amelie

Sabrina

Sophia

Sienna

Eloise

As DD1 has a very popular name I would rather something not quite so popular but not sure if the above fit the bill. Please feel free to suggest any more.

Thanks loads xx

Nice list.

I think Sabrina is the most unusual of your options, and I really like it.

Sienna and Eloise also lovely but quite popular at the moment, especially Eloise.

Amelie is a pretty name but I think very "current" due to the film - might seem a bit dated in 5/10 years time?

Sophie/Sophia are very popular, but classic.

I'd go Sienna as one of my best friends is called Sienna. Don't really like it on caucasians though - feels a bit, um, likt trying to be exotic?

Just my opinion though. Sabrina's great - everyone has forgotten about the teenage witch at this point.

Sabrina....'boys boys boys'
Eloise, nope
Sienna...eeeewwww
Spohia...boring#
Amelie....quite nice.

Amelie or Sophia

Francagoestohollywood · 21/09/2010 11:05

I like Amelie...

I'm loving PosieParker's reference to 1980s Sabrina Grin

I like Sabrina best. Very pretty.

weepootle · 21/09/2010 12:53

Sophie/Sophia

sedgiebaby · 21/09/2010 12:57

Eloise would be my choice b/c DH is french. Otherwise Sohpie

Amelie - Like. People say its popular on mn, although I don't actually know any. I do know quite a few little Amelias though.

Sabrina - the teenage witch. Sorry, can't get past that.

Sophia - Really like, but it is very popular. There were 3 in my daughter's year at school, and I know quite a few around.

Sienna - Not keen.

Eloise - Love, but it is my DDs name. Another name that people on MN say is popular, but usually it is only around the 100 mark in the baby name stats, and my DD is the only Eloise in her current school and her previous school (so out of 500+ children, she is the only one). We only know of one other Eloise.
