I really want a pretty name if bump is a girl...my godaughter is Isla which I love as it's pretty and feminine. I would really like something similar that's not too popular....any ideas? I really like Esme (pronounced Es-May) but DP not too keen! He likes quite traditional names so can't be to 'out there'. Any suggestions welcome!
