Worried it's just a bit too of the moment. Really struggling with alternatives. Trying to avoid names ending in 'a' as not great with our surname. Prefer traditional-ish names. Any suggestions? Please?!

dd2 nearly was Florence - it's her middle name instead
she has a name ending in "a", but we also liked Frances and Constance (connie)

How about Clementine? It's my DD's MN and I love it - underused and underrated I say! We had Florence on our list too but it didn't quite make the final cut.

Florence is on my list, along with Flora, Iris, Clementine and Clemency?

Anothermincepie, I second everyone of them.

and add Nancy and Lucia to your list.

I like it too, but can't get past the fact that Cameron used it for his daughter - that makes it a definite 'no' imo.

How about:
Esther
Bethan
Eleanor
Lauren
Jennifer
Abigail
Caroline
