Im due my 3rd girl and this time around cant seem to decide on a name. I like traditional names. So far i have come up with Clara, Charlotte and Evelyn. I am very drawn to names ending in ie or y, both my other girls end like that, so fancied something different. I love Charlotte, but was wondering if it is too popular, also not keen on Charlie for a girl. My favorite if Clara, but my name is Claire, is that too similar? Any advice or suggestions would be great :)

Clara is also my favourite.
Although it reminds me of the girl in the wheelchair in "Heidi" (sorry)

That doesn't make it less nice though!

I wouldn't go for a name with the same initial as my own, but that's personal choice and you'd have that even if you went with Charlotte.

You could always use Lottie as the nn for Charlotte instead of Charlie.

Clara is rather similar to Claire; what about Cara? Clarissa (nn Clara)?

What are your other girls called?

bloombloombell · 13/07/2011 19:05

my other girls are Rosie and Lucy

I like Clara but it is very similar to Claire. I would have thought Charlotte would have been Lottie and not Charlie. Evelyn is fine but Evie is very popular-depends if it bothers you.

I guarantee if you call her Brian she will be the only one in her class, if that is important to you.
