Nothing felt right - ripped up the list and starting again

[Elbelle6]

So after deliberating and deliberating we decided our list was not working for us...has this happened to anyone else. We both sat down and just wrote out the names we really like this is what we came up with

Scarlett - is it too yesterday
Cordelia
Maeve
Cecily
Elodie
Rowan

Middle names we are thinking May (but not if we went with Maeve) and Rose
Other half and I do like Maeve but can't think of a middle name it goes with

Yes Cecily Elodie or Maeve! Cecily would be CC for short, not Cess. Love it!

Cordelia Maeve is my favourite.

All lovely other than Scarlett which isn't to my taste. I have only ever met one Cordelia and she is Cordy and has been since birth. She is 9 now and quite an adventurous fun living girl do it really suits her far more than Cordelia.
Maeve is lovely but needs a longer MN with 2 syllables.

I think Maeve Isabella is beautiful actually. You're onto a winner there. Very regal as they're both names of queens.

I like all the others apart from Scarlett and Rowan. I'd probably scrap Elodie if your husband's not keen on it and Cecily if you're worried about nicknames. I think Maeve Cordelia or Cordelia Maeve work well too.

Love Maeve and Rowan. Really not keen on Elodie, Cecily or Cordelia.

Cordelia No, but I do quite like the potential nns such as Cora, Cordi Dee-Dee Dee Delia.
Don't know how Maeve is pronounced. Is it Mayeev or Mave. Either way I don't like it.
Cecily is gorgeous.
Elodie No
Rowan No

What about using Maeve as your middle name? Goes really well with your list but is a nicer alternate to May / Rose. My favourite of yours is Elodie but they are all lovely.
