From your list I like Ruby and Holly. As you like May I would use that as a middle name with either of those.

When your thread popped up on active and I saw Ella and........
Ava sprang to mind!

Ella Rose and Ava May?

Well, DD (2) is Amy Alice so I like your names, but every other baby girl I meet is called Amelia.

I like May. The others are all inoffensive, except Brooke which I really dislike.

MrsRV · 19/01/2014 19:11

Ava May is really really nice but our surname begins with V... I don't know whether it's a bit "v"ey. I had really like Violet but gave up due to surname.

Holly & Ruby seem to be our top 2 at mo & no doubt May as middle name if it's either of those.

a couple of people have said that Brooke sounds really American, whuch surprised me actually but it's losing it's shine for me now for that reason.

When I saw your thread title my first thought was Alice!

Agree with others above that Ruby & Holly are the nicest from your list, with May as a middle name for either.

I don't think Brooke goes as well with Ella as the rest of your choices.

Samantha
Then you could have the dangerous combination of Sam an Ella! Grin

I know an Ella whose sister is Aoife.
