Sister for Evelyn ..?

Hi. Not long to go until our DD gets a little sibling. Both me and my other half have decided on a boy's name, but we're a bit stuck on girl's names. This is a sort of short list but we're not 100% convinced by any of them.

Audrey
April
Alice
Norah
Laura
Georgia

Anyone got any more ideas - or can anyone make a persuasive case for any of the ones above?

Thanks for any replies!

Before I even opened the post, I was going to say Alice/Alison so was happy to see that on the list. Goes lovely :)

Flossy78 · 06/03/2013 14:25

Definitely Alice! Although I am biased as I have one Wink

WhoPaintedTheLion · 06/03/2013 14:34

I was going to say Alice too!

Talia
Henrietta
Josephine
Beatrice

My Nan's called Evelyn. Her sister's called Vera Grin

Laura is pretty, Alice is lovely.

Jessica?

MoonHare · 06/03/2013 16:36

Audrey or Alice from your list. Love the suggestion of Beatrice too.

Other ideas; Lydia, Lillian, Anita, Iris, Verity, Phoebe, Florence, Harriett.

OkayHazel · 06/03/2013 16:43

Norah! Like the spelling Nora too!

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 06/03/2013 18:37

Hazel (inspired by poster ^^!)

Pixieonthemoor · 07/03/2013 18:42

Evie & Georgie. Sweet!

WormCanner · 07/03/2013 18:50

How are you pronouncing Evelyn - as two syllables or three?

MacCrackles · 07/03/2013 19:53

Love Audrey. Hazel also lovely.

pixi2 · 07/03/2013 20:00

My first thought would be Josephine.

Possibly Georgiana.

If then you want nn you could have Evie and Joey or Evie and George.

wigglesrock · 07/03/2013 20:06

I really like Audrey, Alice and adore Norah but prefer it spelt Nora. Laura is lovely but Lara is gorgeous.

I was just think that Evelyn would be my number one name for a futire DD. My DD has Alice as a MN so I think you have great taste Grin her first name is Meg.

Stixswhichtwizzle · 07/03/2013 22:23

April or Alice

PatTheHammer · 07/03/2013 22:26

I have an Evelyn, if DS had been a girl he would have been Verity or Delilah or Miriam.
