Don´t know if DC3 is a boy or girl yet. 2 ds are called Louis & Oscar, so if its a girl, I want a strong, cool name.
Not keen at all on overly girly names Bella, Billy, Milly, Zilly, Bella, Mella, Molly, Lilly, Mia, Maya...you know what I mean! Beautiful for some, just not for me...
So far I like Mimi (family reasons), Clara (my husband is Spanish) and Indie.
Any other clever MN suggestions?

I know you've said you're not keen on Billie, but I think it's a really strong name and everyone I know has always said it's a cool name. All the well-known Billies have been interesting, charismatic women IMO. But then I'm biased... Grin

I've always liked Paloma but I don't have the guts to go with it (no Spanish relatives)!

It might not be a cool name in Spain, or too common, not sure - Elena. If I had another DD I like Nina and Francesca, also like Astrid and Ingrid.

holstenlips · 11/06/2013 19:54

Really like Ramona. Or, Stevie

Love Miriam - nickname Mimi?

miffybun73 · 11/06/2013 19:56

I think that Ramona is fabulous and perfect if your husband is Spanish.

Martina

Wow, a lot to choose from! Stella is fantastic, but niece is called Estela.

How about Iris? One of those names that I love but not sure we could pull it off!

Iris is lovely.
But girly.
