There are some old names on there and if you like Amy do you like Mary? Same three letters Smile

EdithWeston · 15/08/2012 21:56

I think Elizabeth is a wonderful name, and use can use either/both Libby and Beth as well as nns.

Others:

Elspeth, Astrid, Erica, Josephine (Jo, Joey), Margot, Magda?

How about Jemima? I really liked that but DP wouldn't have any of it!

Flosie1989 · 15/08/2012 22:11

Oh and Edie which is short for Edith but a lot of people are just using Edie nowadays - love it

GnocchiNineDoors · 15/08/2012 22:15

I have a Phoebe cat.

And a Meg (without the -an).

Tis fate.

Failing that, Alice?

well still liking Hazel and Carys, what about Martha?

OP posts:
downbythewater · 22/08/2012 12:59

I think Hazel is lovely. Martha is also nice but is pretty popular.

How about:
Tess
Rowan
Polly
Rosalie
Lorna
Lyra
Rowena
Tamsin
Seren

fairimum · 22/08/2012 13:26

I like Rowan and Seren but OH doesn't :(

OP posts:
fairimum · 22/08/2012 13:27

other thought is that other 2 DC have 2 middle names... would it be wrong for baby to only have one middle name?

OP posts:
DessieLou · 22/08/2012 16:38

I don't think it'd be wrong to only have the one middle name. I really like Hazel (OH says no Sad) and Carys is lovely. What number is that in the statistics? Also on our list is Emily (too popular?) and Ariella. I love the name Martha but our surname starts with M so it doesn't sound right.

Puremince · 22/08/2012 16:45

We have an Alexander (Alex) and we also have a Lucy. Since having ours we've met another two similar sibling pairs, Alex and Lucy and Alexander and Lucy-Jane. So the consensus is that Alex and Lucy go well together!

Iona, Alex and Lucy - perfect!!

Puremince · 22/08/2012 16:49

Lucy Elizabeth
Lucy Martha
Lucy Carys.

All lovely.
