If we'd been braver DD would be Aurora nn Rory so that's my favourite but I like all the other names quite a lot except Posy.

Rivercam · 17/04/2014 20:25

Posy

MadameJosephine · 17/04/2014 20:27

Only one I don't like is Posy - too cutesy for me.

In order of preference

Honor
Violet
Rose
Aurora

Alisvolatpropiis · 17/04/2014 20:29

Violet.

I really like Aurora. But imagine if she grows up unable to pronounce her R's!

HolidayCriminal · 17/04/2014 21:19

I don't like Posy or Aurora.
I probably like Rose then Violet best. Meh about Honor.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 17/04/2014 22:09

Love Posy - wanted it for dd2 but dp was having none of it.
Love Violet.
Honor doesn't do much for me, nor Rose.
Aurora a bit too Disney for me: I prefer Dawn.

IsabellaRockerfeller · 17/04/2014 22:11

Honor by a mile!

Really really dislike Posy I'm afraid.

GabbyGabriella · 17/04/2014 22:57

With my DS name I wish somebody had warned me about how other people might hear/think about it and I would not have chosen it.
Not to be mean just to point it out to help you decide whether it matters to you...

Posy - sounds like prosy
Aurora - or-war-wa - hope she can say her rs. Also sounds like a stutter 'or or'
Rose - I rose at dawn.
Violet - violent!
Honor - on a what - on a bike? on a horse?

Ikeameatballs · 17/04/2014 22:58

Honor

Rtfairy · 17/04/2014 22:58

My order of preference:
Violet
Posy
Rose
Aurora
Honor

BlackberryandNettle · 17/04/2014 23:05

I like Honour and Rose best, then Aurora

Tranquilitybaby · 17/04/2014 23:49

Honor Rose is lovely, like Honor myself x

MrsBungle · 17/04/2014 23:51

I really like them all except posy. I very much dislike posy.

Graciejoylove8 · 18/04/2014 02:11

Posy (posey/posie)!
I'd have it in a flash if OH agreed

RAFWife12 · 18/04/2014 07:00

I vote Rose or Honor.
Personally I think Posy is too cutesy, or sounds too much like poser. Aurora just makes me think of Disney! And a bit of a mouthful.

cece · 18/04/2014 11:58

Posy reminds me of the character in The Flumps shows my age

squoosh · 18/04/2014 12:03

Honor

squoosh · 18/04/2014 12:04

And definitely no to Rory for a girl. Leave it alone.

Dollydots · 18/04/2014 18:59

Honor
Violet
Posy- Although I can't imagine a grown up woman named this

WhoKnowsWhereTheChocolateGoes · 18/04/2014 19:12

Posy reminds me of the book Ballet Shoes.

tilbatilba · 18/04/2014 19:15

Love them all especially Posy & Violet. Rose least favourite.

frankiedoodledandy · 19/04/2014 01:42

Rose
A lovely flower name and not too cutesy
Love it!

FatFrumpyFilly · 19/04/2014 02:01

A friend has an Aurora & doesn't want it to become to popular & so I'm helping her along by saying what a terrible name! Nobody should choose it!!

Personally I prefer Posy. Cute name.

WhoKnowsWhereTheChocolateGoes · 19/04/2014 07:22

Posy is awful, sounds babyish and stuck-up.

alizeeod · 21/04/2014 17:56

Thanks mommies!
