Opinions on pending dd2's name list please!

[Florrie2]

Hi all,

We've found out today I'm having a DD2. We had epic battles with DD1's name and settled on Ffion which we were both ok with after a few days. I'd like to avoid this with the next one so want to decide on names before she's here.

My list
Violet (am leaning toward this)
Francesca (too Italian for welshies?)
Elizabeth
Jemima
Clara
Esme
May (babies due date in this month)
Helena
Diana

which one do u like the best?

love Violet and Elizabeth

Ffion and Clara sound good to me.

I'm a Francesca! I do get asked if I have any Italian heritage but I just respond with "no, my parents just thought it was a really pretty name". Usually this is followed by "it is a lovely name" which is always nice to hear! So no problem with it being too Italian as far as I can see.

Clearly I'm biased but of the others on your list, I like Esme best, I think it has to be a bit unusual given your other daughter's name.

Also like Clara and would never think to pronounce it anything other than Clar-a. In fact I might just steal that for my list...

Seren. It's welsh for love.
Not on your list, I know!

Oh I like Seren as well!

Jemima, Violet.

In order, with Helena my favourite:

Helana
May
Esme
Elizabeth
Violet
Francesca
Clara
Diana
Jemima
