only ttc at the moment but interested in opinions.

i really struggle with girl's names, but somehow during a late night conversation DH and I discovered we actually both liked the above as a name for imaginary dc2 if a girl.

would be Lois Catherine (surname).

thanks in advance. have namechanged for this just in case of encountering my rl friends. :)

very stuck for potential boy names, that'll be another thread soon!

Did you go with Lois in the end? :)

My mums name is Lois! She loves it x

I think it's lovely.

I like it 😄 (Low-iss) never heard it pronounced any other way !

I LOVE it! Currently 5 months pregnant and desperately trying to convince DP he loves Lois too! Ours would be Lois Victoria.

Love Catherine (for obvious reasons)

I like it. I like girls names that are feminine without being what in my head are fussy/frilly names.

Love it. If ds had been a dd, it was my first choice.

Most of the people I know pronounce it Loice (South Wales) but I prefer it Lowiss (pronounced, not spelt like that, obviously!).

I know one 3 yo Lois but am not keen personally, Eloise is so much nicer IMO!
