What's Lara's sister called?

Very unexpected and totally mind blowing pregnancy news after many heartaches, years of unexplained infertility and a million pounds (felt like it) spent on ivf to get our beautifully, funny, affectionate and bonkers 1 year old.

No girl's names left on our list are doing it.

We're Irish living in Scotland. Second name bit like Anderson and can't have any H names for other reasons.

Ages to go, but buzzing ShockSmile

Frank you are me! Anna's always been a top contender as has Olivia

Congratulations Trooper! Another vote for Anna - we have one and would use Lara for a future dd2. Wierdly I also like Olivia! Sophie, Cleo, Grace would all go nicely too

I know a Lara and Hermione and a Lara and Lexi. I think Olivia or Emily go well with Lara.
