Love Bonnie! My nephew would've been a Bonnie if he'd been a girl.

I also love Elsie as it was my grandmother's name. I've always had in mind if I have a daughter but DH isn't convinced so would prob have to settle for using it as a middle name.

Let's be clear, BeeBox: Rita and Dulcie are NOT hideous names. They are just not to your liking. There's a difference.

I associate Dulcie with dulce de leche -- very sweet and dessertish, plus it has the syllable 'dull' that I find off-putting. Hence my thoughts on Dulcie and careers.

I like Elsie, Rita and Florence from your list.

Thanks for all your advise...we have 18 weeks to change our minds but we are going for Betsy or Dulcie-just depends on what she looks like when she is born which one!Thank u...I love Betsy Buchanan (its in the lead hubby prefers Dulcie) x
