A name like Alice?

[smother]

I love Alice but I can't use it because of issues with our surname... so I was wondering if people could suggest similar sounding names? many thanks!

Ilsa
Lisa
Melissa
Inez
Ursula
Claire
Jessamy
Amy

Alicia? Or is that too similar? :)

Katharine
Emily
Rebekah
Elinor
Matilda (thinking medieval here)
Joan/Jane?
Laura/Laurel
Mary/Marie/Maria
Una

I see Frances suggested - love Frances, so pretty, classic and uncomplicated!

We have an Alice.

I am Katherine :) Never really thought about our names going together but maybe they do.

I like Josephine. Just asked DH again and he said he still hates it.

DD's middle name is Charlotte which I think has quite a similar feel.

Lois ??

Molly
Charlotte
Sophie

I am an Alice Cooper!

Although I was not born Cooper and I didn't change my name until I had been married for 8 years (and was 8 months pg). You know what? Nobody cares. One or two comments, but no one under 25 really knows who Alice Cooper the singer is.

DD1 is called Charlotte and Alice is on our short-list for DD2 along with

Lauren
Esme
Bronwen
Meredith
Caitlin

We have had the same short-list now for months and can't choose because we love them all - I am hoping inspiration strikes in the delivery room :)

I went to school with A.Pratt I'm guessing yours is similar?

Friend with Alice also has a Lucie, which I think is a lovely name. Otherwise Jessica or Ella get my vote :)

What the shite is DD DH DS etc?
And dont say "Darling Husband" because that is bent as fuck.

You see that tab at the top of the page that says "acronyms"?

Go read it.

I think Alice is a simple,yet pretty name. Elsie is gorgeous! How about Daisy?

I haven't read all posts so not sure if already mentioned but how about Alison? Lovely name and hardly used these days.

Lucy

I was going to say Ariella but guess that would have the same issue! How about Elena (elaine-a), felicity, Francesca, penny, safiya, Georgie, lexi... Ummmmm.... Nope, I'm out! :-)
Could you not change the A to an E? Elise? Elice? Ellis?

I've got a real thing about Sybil at the moment - I love it. How about that?

Jeanne? Dora? Louise?

Also think of the names mentioned Hester has a similar feel.

I know exactly what you mean about Alice sparkling.

Other names that "sparkle" to me:

Cecilia
Viola
Phoebe
Felicity
Raffaela

Or Felicia, even more similar.

I wonder what the OP went for in the end? Her DD will probably be 2 now!

We have an Alice, the only other name we both liked was Freya. Hope you find something you love, it's so hard!
