Sister for Evelyn .......

Having great difficulty deciding on any names that both my Dh and I agree on. I dislike all his suggestions and he won't even consider most of mine. We have a dd already , Evelyn (i wanted Georgiana he wanted Amelie we eventually agreed on Evelyn) and have been discussing (arguing) about names since we found out we were having another baby.

I love the name Eleanor at the moment (with the middle name Josephine) our surname is a simple one syllable name so think can get away with something long

Also like Clara, arabella, cordelia , francine , Francesca . Dh doesn't like any of these

Any suggestions for me?

Eleanor is just a bit too close to Evelyn imo.

Francesca is my favourite from your list, but am also throwing into the ring

Eleanor is too close to Evelyn for me too, I'm afraid.

What does DH like? Is Josephine agreed and set as middle name or still a first name option? I think Evelyn and Josephine are lovely together.

We have a little Sylvie which I think would be gorgeous with Evelyn Smile

My first thought was Eleanor!! I think they go rather well together. They could be Evie and Nell.

Love Francesca too.
