Already have a 2yr old Imogen and due is 7wks...struggling for another girls name to compliment it

Don't know what we're having but due in 7wks. Can't decide on ANY girls names :(
We have a few boys names.... Elliott / Edward / Charles. I like Isabelle but I think it's starting to rank up there in the Top 20 names. I prefer something a little more old fashioned, traditional and one that's not heard of that often. I need it to compliment Imogen and that's why I like the sound of Isabelle. Suggestions please? x

Thank you everyone. Really appreciate your input.

Ooooh I really like that spelling for Imogen and Isobel. I had toyed with Beatrice too think it's a very pretty name.

Astrid
Verity
Jocasta

All have a similar vibe to Imogen for me. While I like Isobel, it is hugely popular just now, and the same goes for Eve and all its variations.
(Imogen is so fab it's difficult to match it!)

I know a family where the mum is Isobel and the daughters are Lucy, Alice and Imogen. Everyone gets Isobel and Imogen muddled up and they aren't even sisters! I also know an Isabel with sister Indigo.

Anna
Esme
Eloise

Beatrice or Juliet go very nicely. They won't thank you if there are two Miss I Bloggs and forever opening each other's post so I would avoid Isabelle x

Eliza
I have one and my god daughter is Imogen.
Both have three syllables and are fairly soft sounding if you know what I mean.

Their nicknames are Izzie and Idgie

birchwoods · 22/01/2015 21:28

I know an Imogen (Immie) and her sister is Tabitha (Taba).

LL0015 · 22/01/2015 21:29

Eliza broke into top 100 a few years ago, I remember feeling disappointed that my DD name was getting 'more common' but we have still only ever met one other. Of any age.
