Eliza (NN Elsie) or Miranda (possible NN Marnie?)? Which goes better with Gabriel?

Love them both.

I like Eliza, it is growing on me. I don't like Miranda, sorry. X

So you're planning on giving your children a name you like and then call them by a nickname?

I like Miranda and Miriam.

I personally LOVE Eliza, want to use it if DC4 turns out to be a girl. Might need to work on DH first though as he's not convinced lol. Always reminds me of the book 'Pygmalion', love the character of Eliza Dolittle xx

I like both names, Eliza slightly more. I also like the nn Marnie for Miranda (though Miranda's good on it's own), but not as much of a fan of Elsie as a nn for Eliza.

I love Miranda, its my fave girls name but DH doesnt like it :( I love Miri for a nn :)

I have an Eliza. It was the biggest rising name last year, just reached top 100, probably that Doolittle girl.

Mine gets called Izzy by me but Lie-zah by little bro and school friends but more because its hard for them to pronounce the E sound at the front rolling into the L.

I also like Miranda.

I like Miranda. The one I know is called Minnie
