Thanks for all the lovely suggestions. A few Phoebes on here but we already have one of those Xmas Wink

I love Evangeline but it's too long and I don't like Eva or Evie.

On the other hand , I like Cassie but don't like Cassandra and not keen on nicknames as actual names Blush it's terrible I feel so picky and contrary but I just can't like any names Sad

Cassia instead of Cassandra?

HackerFucker22 · 02/12/2015 17:14

Both my name weirdly as it's not at all popular and DD's name has been mentioned. Albeit both mentioned only the once.

I love Juliet, but there have been quite a lot of votes for that so I am going to case my vote as Jean

If I had a daughter tomorrow, I would call her Alice.
I know it is fairly popular, and not massively exciting or original, but it is still classic, and lovely.

RiaOverTheRainbow · 02/12/2015 17:23

Elizabeth, so I she would have about a thousand nicknames to chose from.

JasperDamerel · 02/12/2015 17:29

Thalia.

For the last 15 years or so I would have said Matilda - that's what both my DSs would have been if they'd been girls. But there are loads of Matildas around here two in DS's year at school and I have two friends who have Matildas. So that has changed my mind.

Now I would go for.... Anwen. Love it.
