Sister for Elsa

Think we have a boys name. But we'd better hope it's a boy as we're clueless about girls! I like Claudia, but DH doesn't. He likes Clara, but I don't love it. I started thinking maybe Dorothea, NN Dora, but would prefer something a bit simpler. We like Frida, but it sounds crazy with our surname. Any suggestions?!

Love Dorethea is lovely.

Frida is really awful.

Claudia and Clara are ok but a bit pretentious IMO.

Is Freya crazy with your surname too?

Flowerface · 05/01/2012 13:57

A bit. Surname begins with F and DH is very opposed to alliteration...

I LOVE Lillian, but I get Lily as a nickname and so would she... Also like Cora but DH isn't persuaded...

OP we have similar taste - Dorothea, Clara and Elsa are on our list for dc2, along with Sasha, Amalia, Thea, isadora, Cecily, and Zara. Our DD is called Lydia.
