Love the name Romilly, not sure if it goes with our surname though.

All views welcome!

Lola
Willa
Della
Polly
Molly
Beulah
Tallulah ...

... yeah, Tallulah Waller, that's the one Wink

Oh, Percy, don't - Della has always been my all time favourite name! I had only just got over the fact that I can't use it, but you've bought all the emotion flooding back

Grin

I had thought that Romilly could work because it doesn't end in an "-er" or "-a" sound, and because it doesn't have an "-oll" sound in it, only an "-ill" sound which is different and therefore must be okay

But it doesn't, I know that really. Oh well, time to move on!

Silly, sorry.

But Percy's suggestion of Willa Waller is definitely sillier!Grin

Agree Romilly is lovely but doesn't go with your surname. I really love the other names on your list though, and they work well!

I knew a Helen Waller do the proliferation of ls needn't be a problem. I think it's more the o-i-ee-er combo!

I think Romy Waller might work. Similar name in some ways but has some essential difference.

Jennifer is very nice with the surname imo.

Avoid all Char- names.

Suggestions:
Madeleine
Sylvie/ Sylvia
Beatrice
Zoe
Rachel

Maybe something like Kirilly? I forget how to spell it.
