Thoughts on girls names...

[Bobian123]

DD due in a couple of weeks and we thought we'd have come up with a name by now, but still don't agree!

Here are the names floating around in our heads:

Katherine
Annabel
Amelia
Josephine
Connie
Vivienne
Madeleine
Cassie
Eliza

I like all of these but DH only really likes a couple. I also have a stand out favourite but wondered what others thought? Which would be your pick? Thanks!

Thanks for your input all! ARV-I think that's what we're most likely to do but it could be weeks before we get anywhere!!

Amelia has been my fave name for years but I do hear lots of them about.

Loving Josephine nn Josie and think I could maybe persuade DH :-).

Katherine: I love this name, its very powerful and elegant-sounding. Prefer it with a C but thats just my opinion.

Annabel: Cutesypoo. Met a 45-year-old Annabel once, it was just weird

Amelia, Josephine and Madeleine: These are fine names that i can't see anyone objecting to. Amelia is a bit cutesy but it's okay. I have always liked the name Madeleine

Connie: Cute, but more of a nickname than a full name. Constance is a nice name too however.

Vivienne: Vivien is better IMO - stronger and less frilly

Cassie: Short for cassandra?

Eliza: Worst of the bunch. Dorky and frumpy.

I absolutely love Madeleine. Its so beautiful. Also love Eliza. I like Cassie but prefer Cassia.
Connie is cute but a bit nicknamey and don't really like Cassandra.
Katherine and it's variants seem very popular in my generation (30s) so find it a bit boring.
Annabel gets lost in all the Belles/Bellas. Just Anna is gorgeous?
Josephine and Vivienne dont do anything for me. Amelia is overdone.
Madeleine Eliza or Eliza Madeleine - lovely

Sorry - meant Constance not Cassandra as a nn for Connie. Obvs

My favourites are Katherine and Madeleine closely followed by Annabel.

Cassie - Absolutely love this, but would probably use Cassandra
Vivienne - like a lot
Eliza - ok as a nn but prefer Elizabeth/Lizzy
Katherine = fine - I like Kitty
Annabel - ok / don't love it though
Amelia - as Annabel
Josephine - don't like
Connie - it's okay / I like Constance but don't love it
Madeline - quite nice

Love Cassie, I had Cassandra on my list of names with nn Cassie but hubby vetoed it!!!
