We didn't think - now got a naming dilemma!

Namechanger because this identifies me and my kids undoubtedly...

So me and DH didn't really think through our name decisions just went on what we wanted...

So DS1 is called Lucas Gabriel Andrew because my DH's GF was called Lucas, I loved Gabriel and my DH is called Andrew

DS2 comes along and we name him Leon Silas Robert because I love Leon, My Dad is called Silas and my DH's brother is called Robert.

We realise a pattern... all Ls so when DC3 comes along and is another boy we think it will be a good idea to do all Ls so DS3 is called Lloyd Matthew Benedict.

Now I am pregnant with DC4 and it is a girl but we like NO names for girls that begin with Ls but we can't exactly not go for an L because we don't want this child to be the odd one out....

Please help and suggest some girl names beginning with L!

All I can think of is the scavo kids in desperate housewives who's names begin with P!!!

Think it would be nice to break the pattern of a first name beginning with L, and you have some lovely family names to choose from.

I like a lot of L names:

Lucy
Lara
Louisa
Laura
Lily
Lillian
Lydia

but I don't think you need to go with the them if you prefer another letter!

Leonie
or as suggested
Louise
Laura
Lillian
Lydia

But why do they all have to begin with L?

You have the ideal opportunity to break the pattern since this is a girl - I suggest Julia Molly Rose.

DD will be different as she's a girl anyway. Pick a name you like, and if you have any more girls, perhaps that can be your girls' name letter Smile
