Ok.

Shortlist is:

Isobel
Lucy
Annabelle
Alice
Lola (DH loves this one, I just think of Barry M!)
Mollie

Really struggling though if we're honest. With Phoebe we both just went, 'that's the one' . This time, we are stuck!

Any ideas? Surname begins with a H and ends 'son'

Isabel sprung into my head when I read your title and I see Isobel is popular among the replies. I think it goes really nicely with the others Smile

MortifiedAdams · 08/09/2013 16:07

I came on to suggest Alice so am glad to see it on your list!

Can I also add
Stella
Lara
Darcy
Sophia

MortifiedAdams · 08/09/2013 16:09

Oh also love Pippa but just Pippa.

If Lottie - what about Charlotte?

RalphtheTimid · 08/09/2013 16:12

Francesca

Hi sorry for slow reply..forgot to check back..mine is just Pippa. I decided we probably wouldn't call her Phillipa so what was the point on the birth certificate!

PeteCampbellsRecedingHairline · 09/09/2013 20:23

From your list I like Alice.

Also Tilly or Thea.

DalmationDots · 15/09/2013 21:37

Isobel - nice but lots of them about!
Lucy - nice and less overused at the moment
Annabelle - lovely
Alice - lovely
Lola (DH loves this one, I just think of Barry M!) - not for me but nothing wrong with it. I think of it as the modern day Lucy or Laura
Mollie - lovely and not that common

I really like all of these!

Other ideas trying to fit with the type of names you've given:

Phoebe, Max and...

Amelie
Millie
Theodora - but if she was NN Thea then Phoebe and Thea sound very similar
Sophie/Sophia
Daisy
Pippa
Tilly/Matilda
Jessica
Jemima
Lottie
Amy
Lydia
Freya
Callie
Darcey

DalmationDots · 15/09/2013 21:38

ooo.. or Ruby or Evie would go quite well

jojane · 15/09/2013 21:51

My dd is called Matilda phoebe.

LeoandBoosmum · 16/09/2013 02:41

When I experiment (in my head)I like Phoebe, Max and Madeleine.

AintNobodyGotTimeFurThat · 25/09/2013 16:14

Bit late on the uptake but I really like:

Charlotte
Pippa
Sophie
Lucy

So out of your choices, I'd say Lucy.
But that's because it's not too popular these days.

CoffeeChocolateWine · 25/09/2013 19:37

I have a Max and Eva. Also on our list for a girl was Isobel, Esme and Erin.

I think Phoebe, Max and Lucy, or Phoebe, Max and Isobel sound lovely.

amothersplaceisinthewrong · 25/09/2013 19:40

Elizabeth (Lizzie) goes well with Max (imillilan)!

ElectricalBanana · 25/09/2013 19:43

I like Margot!

But then again I am very old and my childbearing years are behind me!

sleepdodger · 25/09/2013 19:47

Before seeing your list I thought Florence
Having seen it Lola !

sleepdodger · 25/09/2013 19:49

Ok to add
Isabel/ isobelle/ izzy etc is a beautiful name but currently very other girl at nursery and work is this under 2yo
Don't know if that's a problem for you or not but as max and phoebe are less common thought I'd mention it!!
I went to school with 5 gemmas and have inadvertently given dc a bloody popular name

CordeliaRose · 25/09/2013 20:24

I like all of the names on your list (except Lola Grin). I think Alice goes particularly well with your other DC names.

Nicknames Allie, Lissy, CeCe, Ally-bally?

TessTackle · 25/09/2013 20:26

Maisie

FranSanDisco · 25/09/2013 20:31

I think Sophia and Leah go nicely.

justhayley · 25/09/2013 21:22

From your list Alice, followed closely by Lucy.
Phoebe is a favourite of mine o also lobe Darcey, Heidi and Willow if that helps xx

elcranko · 25/09/2013 22:45

Alice or Isobel.

Retroformica · 26/09/2013 22:40

Tallula or Lottie

Sadie204 · 27/09/2013 20:38

We do have very similar taste in names too lol! DD1 is Phoebe, DD2 is Kelsie and we are struggling for names for DD3! Other names we like (some we can't use as sounds silly with surname or have been used as middle names/by relatives)

Olivia
Alyssa
Georgia
Sophia
Scarlett
Isabelle
Ava
Mollie
Maisie
Hollie
Amelie
Evie
Paige
Sophie
Eliza
Elise
Laurel
Imogen
Caitlyn
Amelia
Bethan
Megan
Alexia
Lauren

Good luck!

Iwaswatchingthat · 28/09/2013 11:21

I love all your names so far - can I add Jessica to your list? Then they all have different endings....

Phoebe, Max & Jessica

Diff syllables for all three too so works well.
