At nearly 24 weeks,we've decided to start thinking about possible names. Not going to make a final decision till she arrives, but we want a list of names we both get on with to work from. What do people think of the below, and do you have any other suggestions?

Verity
Imogen
Alexandra
Bethan
Beatrice
Thea
Clementine
Clara (love this, but OH is concerned about rising popularity due to a certain TV program...)
Veronica
Rosalind
Cora
Rowan (I adore this for a girl, but OH is convinced it is a made up name, a boy's name and will make everyone think of Blackadder)
Arietta/Arriety (Least keen on these)

I like Rosalind
What about Rowena ?

We have Clara as our number 1 choice at the moment, lovely name Grin. Our other top contenders are Laura and Ruby.

Quite a few of your names were on my lists at one stage or another.

Imogen - I did love, but am really glad I didn't call dd this. It's too popular.
Alexandra - beautiful, classic, good nns.
Thea - gorgeous cool name
Clementine - love it.
Clara - my absolute favourite but dh vetoed
Rosalind - pretty
Rowan - beautiful. I know a little girl called this, but no boys!

Imogen & Thea are the nicest on your list imo.

I know a cottage called Rowan.

My favourite is Clementine, it is really cute and different at the same time. Lovely
