Edie, it's a lovely name and isn't one I hear a lot.

Sophronia · 02/10/2015 20:04

Connie, although I do prefer it short for Constance.

Ipushedmygrannyaffabus · 02/10/2015 20:22

Connie

TheSwallowingHandmaiden · 02/10/2015 20:23

Edie will be ubiquitous by next year. Connie won't. I like Connie (and Mabel's gorgeous).

Orangeisthenewbanana · 02/10/2015 20:24

Evelyn

Connie, by an absolute country mile. Lovely lovely name - not so much with the other thre.

rubybloom2 · 02/10/2015 20:25

Evelyn is my favourite. I know a grown up one with nickname Ev, which I really like.

srtajuanita · 02/10/2015 20:26

Constanza, nn Connie?

ShowOfHands · 02/10/2015 20:28

DD's best friend is a Constance and I love it. My best childhood friend was Constance too.

Connie and Mabel are beautiful together.

Schmoochypoos · 02/10/2015 20:33

I think Connie goes well with Mabel (which I love BTW)

Yika · 02/10/2015 20:35

I like Penny or Constance (but not Connie).

ajandjjmum · 02/10/2015 20:37

Connie - officially Constance.

ashesandfire · 02/10/2015 20:39

Connie!

tkband3 · 02/10/2015 20:39

Edie (although I may be biased Wink) or Connie would get my vote.

YakTriangle · 02/10/2015 20:44

Edie is the only one I like TBH. It goes very nicely with Mabel though so that's handy Grin

WhoTheFuckIsSimon · 02/10/2015 20:47

Connie

Notmeagain1 · 02/10/2015 20:48

Evelyn is my pick. Then she could have nn of Ev, Eve or Lyn. Many nn options.

Second Connie, but make it Constance with Connie as the nn,

Congratulations on your upcoming birth. When is she due to arrive?

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 02/10/2015 20:50

Connie

celtictoast · 02/10/2015 20:53

Connie or Edie would go well with Mabel.

Peaceloveandjammydodgers · 02/10/2015 21:02

Mabel and Constance (Connie) is perfect

autumnmoon · 02/10/2015 21:02

Connie is a gorgeous name and sounds wonderful with Mabel! I'm a bit jealous actually!

DramaAlpaca · 02/10/2015 21:10

Connie, short for Constance. Love it with Mabel.

Edie would be my second choice.

Congratulations Sheddie!
I like Edie, would it be short for Edith?
