I'm imminently due my second daughter but my OH & I are struggling to stick on a name we love this time. We had Harriet for DD1 and decided on this fairly early. This time, it seems we can't agree and nothing jumping out! What do you think of our shortlist so far and any other suggestions welcome (please!) We have a short F surname and I like classic names that I could see on a 'cool indie chick' that aren't too popular

Iris - top choice at the mo, not heard of where we live
Hannah- like this but since we added to list have heard a lot
Edie- do like but would prefer as a nn (OH doesn't like Edith)
Beatrice - OH doesn't love (too royal!) but I love Bea (though maybe too short with our surname)

Thanks lovely mnet-ers. Love the suggestions you come up with on other boards, hoping with my specifics above you can help me too! :)

Vivienne coming up a bit, I read on another thread that it reminded the poster of Pretty Woman & that's all in my head since. Shame as if it stayed as Vivienne (not viv) it's lovely. Is Edna too granny chic at this point? Can't imagine a baby Edna -anyone know any?

nooka you are right! Edina is better than Edwina Smile

Edna brings to mind Dame Edna Everage and Edna Krabappel in the Simpsons.

Neither make the name appealing to me.

I wasn't being serious - Edna is surely awful isn't it?
