Nancy from oliver
Captain nancy Blackett

Neither were the weak type
In fact the latter was nancy because she was ruthless

numbertaker · 07/07/2012 15:19

not Erica or Marcia or Estelle (that old woman out the golden girls)

Louisa, Naomi, lydia, or Alexandra are really nice.

mrsbugsywugsy · 07/07/2012 16:31

From your list I like Alexandra or Louisa best. Someone upthread suggested Stella which I think goes well with Claudia.

However if you love Nancy, go for it.

Pollykitten · 07/07/2012 17:53

Hester or Estelle. And Nancy is a gorgeous name

belgo · 07/07/2012 17:53

Esther
Stella

storytopper · 07/07/2012 19:30

I like all the names on your list except Lydia - I knew a very bossy Lydia. I also like Esther and Stella. My gran had a friend called Esther Henrietta - I always thought that was a nice name.

storytopper · 07/07/2012 19:31

And congratulations on the birth of your DD, btw!

FurCough · 07/07/2012 19:40

My DD would have been Marcia had she not been DS2. Please call her Marcia as it's the most beautiful name in the world and I'm not having a third!

Congrats, btw Grin

I have always loved Estella, would you consider this?

Viviennemary · 07/07/2012 20:51

I like Louisa and Alexandra best from your list. Not so keen on Nancy. I also like Violet, Iris and Pandora.

IsLovingAndGiving · 07/07/2012 22:14

I LOVE Naomi.

ThePsychicSatsuma · 07/07/2012 22:18

cityangel · 07/07/2012 22:19

How about Elin, Eloise, Seren....

ThePsychicSatsuma · 07/07/2012 22:22

Zelia is cool.

I like Nancy though

ThePsychicSatsuma · 07/07/2012 22:23

Claudia and Zelia

MerryMarigold · 07/07/2012 22:25

Kristin
Meredith
Tamsin

Is Nancy not David Cameron's daughter's name? Will there be a lot of 'Nancy's' as she grows up?

Ohmydarlin · 07/07/2012 22:47

Love Estelle/Estella. First name that springs to mind is Penelope. Also like Juliet and Susannah with Claudia. Sorry, not much help. Congratulations on your new baby x.

TheRedQueen · 07/07/2012 23:11
