Three and 1/2 week old baby girl still unnamed

[skewiff]

I've been resisting asking for other people's opinions but now am desperate!

We've got to decide soon ...

Our shortlist is:

Dora
Hester
Iris
Rosa
Rhona
Mabel

Please could you let me know what your opinions are.

Thank you x

milly -the willy
iris-the penis
jane -vain
jack-crack
bea-wee
maisie-lazy
jock-cock

They are all dodgy imo..maybe rosa at best...but the rest are old lady names...imo

Dora - explorer/ bit boring
Hester - Quite like it
Iris - Gorgeous
Rosa - Pretty but boring!
Rhona - don't like
Mabel - Lovely

My picks would be Iris or Mabel, probably Iris.

Love Iris (and Ida and Iola)
Like Mabel
Hester sounds boyish

Has she been named yet?

Iris and Hester are both lovely. Don't get Iris - the penis Capiche!

Not loving Hester really. Don't want to rain on your parade unnecessarily, but it just seems totally unfeminine .

Iris and Rosa are pretty, Rhona is okay.

I love Mabel.

Don't like Hester.

Rosa is lovely.

Rhea?

Hester, with nn Hettie.

Hester is lovely, just name the child fgs! You're going round in circles.

love mabel its so cute

Iris or Rosa. Marginally prefer Rosa I think but Iris is definitely more unusual. Depends on your surname

Yes - I have been going round in circles. We've got another week until registering her, so still time to change our minds ...

BUT we're 99% sure its going to be Hester as a first name and Dora as second. I know that sounds a bit much maybe, but my Great Aunty Dora is the best woman in the world and I want my daughter to have her name.

Thanks again to everyone for all your opinions and help/advice.

Hester Dora doesn't run very well together, but who cares. The occasions that you give her full name out loud will be few and far between. I'm sure the surname will negate it too.

I LOVE Hester. Great choice.

Rosa :)

Mabel! Fabulous!

But I like your others too.

I like Isadora which somebody suggested further down. Hester is a nice name though.

Dora - the explorer
Hester - old granny name
Iris - meh
Rosa - lovely name
Rhona - old granny
Mabel -ancient old granny name.

Rosa's the only one I like. It's the prettiest and most feminine.

Iris is lovely.

Rosa or Iris :)

Rosa is my favourite.
