I know most of them are really common/popular right now but they're the names we love!

Mollie
Olivia
Evie
Robyn
Jasmine - but my partner isnt keen.

Opinions please...or any suggestions for other names you think I might like?

Love Olivia and jasmine Smile xx

gilly86 · 11/03/2013 22:46

Personally not a big fan of Mollie... I think it's nice for a child but not great for when they are an adult!

That's just my personal opinion though...!!

Olivia I love Smile
Jasmine I love too... Grin

Olivia is my fave though xx

HorryIsUpduffed · 11/03/2013 22:47

Robyn by a mile: love it!

gilly86 · 11/03/2013 22:48

Also I know loads of people with Evie's and Eva's! Lovely name but becoming more and more common.....

I know Olivia is quite common at the moment too but.. Really like Olivia! Smile

Love Robyn as well but I know a few guys called robin so that kiiiiiiind of puts me off!

Xoxox

Robyn is a new one, only came to me today...haven't approached my boyfriend with it yet though! Is that the girls way of spelling it?

Robyn is growing on me though! More and more as I think about it!

Really nice with a Y.. More feminine. X

Ruprekt · 11/03/2013 22:49

Olivia is a timeless classic. Love Liv too as a nn.

I know a Livia too which is pretty.

elsabel · 11/03/2013 22:50

I dont know to be honest why I am still contemplating Evie, my cousin has a girl with the name (although I dont see her much) dont think I can get away with it. And my bf wont even entertain the idea of Evelyn/Everly! x

I agree Olivia is a timeless classic! Just a really lovely name and I like liv for short as well.

Xx

elsabel · 11/03/2013 22:57

Yes me too, like Liv, but dont like Livvy so much. Livia is nice also.

Evie gets my vote

ZolaBuddleia · 12/03/2013 13:49

Of these I would only go for Robyn.

birdofthenorth · 12/03/2013 15:02

Robyn gets my vote. The others are nice names but everywhere. I do like Jasmine a lot but know lots of people who hate it for some reason.

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 12/03/2013 15:11

Tough to choose, Olivia and Robyn would be my top two. Jasmine is lovely but just know round our way they'd shorten it to Jaz.

DumSpiroSpero · 12/03/2013 15:18

Another vote for Olivia and Robyn.

I do know a very lovely little Evelyn, but not sure that would convince your DP!

Kittenkatzen · 12/03/2013 15:38

Love love love Robyn - please use it OP as I can't because of surname issues!

Of your list I also like Jasmine (and actually don't mind Jaz too much as a shortening!)

Have you also considered Ava / Emma / Ella / Millie / Scarlet?

buttercrumble · 12/03/2013 15:41

Robyn is lovely....

Leeds2 · 12/03/2013 16:31

Olivia. Then Robyn.

loler · 12/03/2013 16:36

The Olivia pig books/cartoon have forever spoilt the name for me. Also DS favourite joke is knock knock - Olivia but I haven't got my key - hear it at least 3 times a day.

I like any of the other names but probably Robyn the best.

Ruprekt · 12/03/2013 17:28

Olivia Robyn is pretty together.

JamieandtheMagicTorch · 12/03/2013 17:43

Robyn is my favourite, by a long way.

JamieandtheMagicTorch · 12/03/2013 17:48

Also

What about

Leah
Serena
Bonnie
Constance/ Connie
Margaret/ maggie/ peggy

almapudden · 12/03/2013 18:07

I like Olivia :)

elsabel · 12/03/2013 20:49

Thanks for some great responses and lovely suggestions!

I do love Jasmine too, and dont mind Jaz. My sister is laws name is Emma so were considering that for a middle name.

Rupreket, Olivia Robyn is lovely i agree.

Definitely Robyn - by far the best of your choices!
