Now for the girls names......

Firstly, thanks for everyones comments on my boys name thread. After a very long discussion we have decided to stick with Noah. With our back up name being Zach. We realised we both loved this originally for a reason and we should go with our hearts on this one :-)

Now for the girls names...... We are massively struggling with these. I have 2 names in my head.
? Florence (but not keen that it can have so many shortenings and wonder if she will just permanently have a nickname and not use her full name)
? Darcey (Keep coming back to this name - I personally have a unisex name and always thought I would give my girls really girly names for this reason, but something keeps drawing me back to this!)

Any other suggestions would be great. I am not necessarily looking for any specific style, just a name I love! And it needs to be something that goes nicely with my boys names (planning for the future baby no 2! Haha!)

Many thanks!!!!!

Darcey seems to be a bit "common" how about Dulcie instead?

I like Florence, and Flo is also cool so wouldn't worry about nicknames. Glad you've chosen Noah (I know a Noah with a brother named zack Smile)

I definitely prefer Florence to Darcey.

flowerbum · 26/12/2014 22:38

I think if you keep coming back to darcey then that should be the one! A lovely name. I have just called my girl megan. I had a list but kept coming back to megan. Think I slowly fell in love with the name

Thanks everyone for your messages so far.....
I decided to stick with Noah because despite looking at other names that's the one I kept coming back to.
Still a bit stuck on girls names though. Any more help would be greatly received!!

If mines a little girl we've decided on Talulah (Lula for short) X

Florence, darcey is slightly common. Florence is classy and elegant x
