Any thoughts? I like Francesca and Josephine so thought Francine was a nice combination of the two. I like Camille & Camilla (but not sure i can get past the Parker Bowles connection). I also can't decide if I like Camelia? Thanks!

what about Gisele?

i love this name. also Fabienne. i think Camille is pretty, but not sure how well it works in English.

It's Cam-eel

I think a name that begins with the word Camel is asking for trouble really.

Wonder the same about the start of Giselle... Grin

I love Camellia like the flower. Josephine is a disgusting old nuns name (Posy is nice though). Francine reminds me of that dancer that Ronan Keating had an affair with. Can't think of any others even though it's not that weird. Francine. Just has a frumpy vibe. Camille looks nice written down but pronounciation too problematic and it is just too like Camel. Camilla ok but again, it's a cliche posh name like Lucinda and Sebastian. Don't mind posh names though. Camelia / Camellia is the best name on your list.

Fabienne is lovely!

DessieLou · 01/04/2013 19:52

Hmm, a mixed bag. Giselle is nice but can't use.
zoezoolander I rather like Lucinda! May have to put that on the list! Smile
