Hi,

My DH and I are going round and round in circles trying to think of a girls name that goes with Hugh and Felix. Am due on 13th April and we have decided on Angus for a boy, but are stuck on girls. Current thoughts are Eliza, Sofia, Alice, Martha…are we brave enough to go with Maude, Aurora, Electra or Marina?

Thanks

Not keen on Aurora or Electra.

Sofia and all its variants are pretty common now.

I personally love Maude and think it goes well with your boys' names. Eliza, Alice, Martha and Marina are all nice names too though.

Lucinda (Lucy)?
I'm afraid Aurora & Electra sound like 70s prog rock bands to me and Marina is where you park the yacht, no?! Wink

I like Marina and Sofia.

Emma
Jennifer
Violet
Olivia
Clara
Louisa
Harriet
Penelope/Penny

Alice is my favourire ftom your list, Hugh, felix and alice sounds nice together

Oubliette0292 · 26/03/2014 21:02

I really like Maude.

Otherwise how about Audrey, Caroline, Helena (if you don't mind two of your DC sharing an initial), Ingrid, Sadie or Valerie?

Eliza is a beautiful name! Was on my list for dd but my cousin has an Elisa, so was too similar Sad

Emubaby · 26/03/2014 22:00

Love Maude and it sounds fabulous with your boys names.

figgieroll · 27/03/2014 00:22

Just adore Maude aurora and Electra. Also violet

figgieroll · 27/03/2014 00:23

Alice is also nice though

ThefutureMrsTatum · 27/03/2014 00:27

Matilda! First name that popped into my head when I read the other two names. Although on your list I like, Sofia and Martha

looki · 27/03/2014 00:35

Oh I think Theodora would be perfect with your boy's names (both fab names by the way).

I think Maud/e sounds clunky to my ears.

From your list, Eliza is by far my favourite as a sibling combination.

NigellasDealer · 27/03/2014 00:43

Hugh Felix and Sofia

MyChemicalGerard · 27/03/2014 00:49

Love Martha and Alice, maybe Florence? Sofia, Arabella

wouldbemedic · 27/03/2014 01:00

I feel like Cecily would work well with the two names you have in your family. From your list, I can imagine Martha maybe working.

EverythingCounts · 27/03/2014 01:01

Marina, definitely.

AngryBeaver · 27/03/2014 01:07

Ottoline? Don't like Electra or aurora (Disney princess) and marina is where you find the ducks!

sleepingbeautiful · 27/03/2014 03:38

Marina or Alice are great and work well with your DS names, maybe the edge to Marina. Not keen on Sofia, Electra or Maude.

Other suggestions: Lavinia, Julia, Iris, Edith

Blueuggboots · 27/03/2014 05:47

I thought of Aurelia.....

Eastpoint · 27/03/2014 05:58

I like Martha & Marina. Round here I know two Marthas each named for the Tom Wait's song. One is 3, the other 22. Guardian article on Tom Wait's Martha
