So, what do you think of:

Camille
Rosa
Annabelle/Arabella (dh likes one, i like the other)
Isabella (very popular - no?)

Any think else you could add in the same vein?

Poor DD2 is destined to be Bubba forever!

My favourite is Rosa, it's a great name.

Congratulations on the birth of dd2 (I like Bubba!) Smile

I like Rosa, Arabella and Isabella best from your shortlist.

(Annabelle is too girly for me, and Camille is a boy's name in France).

Other names: Rosalind, Imogen, Francesca?

Fimbo · 26/09/2010 11:10

The only one I dislike is Camille.

pinkbasket · 26/09/2010 11:10

If that was the only choices I would go for Rosa but Rose is nicer I think.

What about Molly?

CuppaTeaJanice · 26/09/2010 11:13

Camille - first thing that sprung to mind is 'camel toe', sorry.
Rosa - nice, like a feisty Italian lady!
Annabelle/Arabella - a bit prissy and princessy for my taste, but ok.
Isabella - lovely, but popular.

Other suggestions - Cecile, Milla, Elodie, Jennifer, Amelie?

MrsDoofenshmirtz · 26/09/2010 11:16

Camille - don't like the sound
Rosa - lovely lovely lovely
Anabella - I'm your fella Anabella (Drop dead Fred)
Isabella - also lovely

I like Rosa best

ZacharyQuack · 26/09/2010 11:16

How about Rosabella?

Bumperlicious · 26/09/2010 11:37

I've thought about Rosabella, but is it a bit too much?

DH likes Molly, I don't, I like Celia, he doesn't.

We are at a stalemate Grin

Rosa - lovely name. I used to have a Spanish friend called RosaMaria - shortened to Rosa.

Francagoestohollywood · 26/09/2010 11:41

Oooooh Celia, go for Celia, it is lovely!

MrsDoofenshmirtz · 26/09/2010 11:43

Celia is gorgeous also Cecelia

MrsDoofenshmirtz · 26/09/2010 11:43

Ce Ce for short

highlystrung · 26/09/2010 11:50

Camille is gorgeous and there are hardly any of them. Is my niece's middle name and always loved it.

cece · 26/09/2010 12:02

Cece is nice Wink

thereisalightanditnevergoesout · 26/09/2010 12:04

Rosa
Camille

Not too keen on the others.

Lstone · 26/09/2010 12:09

Camille but prefer Camilla and which can also be Millie. A strong and beautiful name. Although there is the the Duchess of Cornwall but she will be history by the time these little ones grow up.

nevergoogle · 26/09/2010 12:16

Camille and Rosa are lovely.
Cecily?
Ciel?

Bumperlicious · 26/09/2010 14:05

Ok, if, if we went with Rosa what middle names could we use. DD1 has 2 middle names (mums and MIL's), does dd2 need two?

onimolap · 26/09/2010 14:08

No, give her whatever you want. Any nice names amongst your/DH's grannies?

ILoveGregoryHouse · 26/09/2010 14:09

Elizabeth?
Juliet?

Bumperlicious · 26/09/2010 14:36

FFS dh is saying 'don't get your heart set on rosa, i haven't decided'. he is really starting to get on my wick over this!

Rosa is really lovely

thereisalightanditnevergoesout · 26/09/2010 14:41

Camille (then you'd get two of your choices)
Pearl
Mae
Maeve
Isobel
Madeleine
Iris
Gabrielle
Beatrice

thereisalightanditnevergoesout · 26/09/2010 14:43

Poor you Bumperlicious - make sure he deals with all the phone calls and texts from people asking what her name is then!!

Bagpusstree · 26/09/2010 14:43

Rosa is lovely. Just keep calling her it, he'll soon catch on!
