With the 1st DD it was so easy as I always knew what I would call her. This 1 is much harder!

I've narrowed it down to:
Chloe
Heidi
Francesca

I quite like Isobel too though am put off by the growing popularity of it!

I was thinking of the middle name as Evelyn. This isn't the 1st name as it is too close to DD1s name.

I dare not ask family or friends and prefer the anonymity on here! Be brutually honest, I can take it! Grin

Heidi - my favourite of your names.

Francesca next, and really like the nn Frankie.

Dont like Chloe. Its a bit 90s for me.

Francesca Evelyn is absolutely beautiful. I love it.

I really don't like Chloe or Heidi.

Callistone · 20/01/2014 21:15

Francesca, definitely

Francesca (even though I still really struggle to spell it despite having known and worked with about four in my life Blush) is definitely best, then Chloe (which I think is a better mn) and lastly Heidi. I feel Heidi is just too Germanic to pull off without being a bit German/Austrian/Belgian/Swiss etc.

Francesca is best out of them x

Chloe, then Francesca ( this would have been my first choice but I can't stand Fran, which some will shorten it to). Heidi just reminds me of the books and lederhosen.

IBelieveInPink · 20/01/2014 21:50

Chloe and Francesca were both on my list. I also love Isobel, but like you was concerned about popularity.

If you are interested in more names- the rest of my list was; Phoebe, Natasha, Lana, and Imogen. :)

Francesca.

DramaAlpaca · 20/01/2014 22:25

Francesca.

Amy106 · 20/01/2014 22:29

I like them all, except for Heidi.

amyshellfish · 20/01/2014 22:35

Francesca evelyn is gorgeous.

manicinsomniac · 20/01/2014 23:02

I love Francesca

Chloe and Heidi are pretty too. Also really like Isobel and don't think it's as popular as Chloe - especially with that spelling.

I've actually never met a Heidi, although I think it's top 100.

I like them all! Just check what the initials will spell especially if you're thinking of a middle name starting with a vowel.

Love Chloe!

Francesca is ok but would hate the nn Fran or Frankie .

Not keen on Heidi at all.

MomentForLife · 21/01/2014 16:04

Love Heidi but dont think it 'goes' as much with Evelyn as the others.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 21/01/2014 16:22

I have a Francesca and love the name! I also really like Heidi.

newyearhere · 21/01/2014 17:03

I like Chloe best, then Francesca. Not keen on Heidi.

MarvellousMechanicalMouseOrgan · 21/01/2014 17:05

Love Heidi, but not the other two, sorry.

Cleo?
