Alice or Cara

[adagio]

Expecting dd2 within the next week or so (due 31st) so we've been trying to filter down our names list.

We like Emilia, but would probably use it as a middle name with either Alice or Cara. So...

Alice Emilia
or
Cara Emilia

Which do you prefer?

Cara

Alice is gorgeous.

Cara is lovely.
Always thought Alice was a bit dull tbh.

Love the name Alice so that's my vote!

Cara nice too, it's Irish for friend.

Alice

Cara

I like it the other way round,
Emilia Alice

Love Alice. Cara is meh. Cora and Clara are lovely though

Alice Emilia :)

Love Cara. Love its meaning.
Alice I only ever think of Wonderland or Alice, Alice who the f--k is Alice. Sorry.

Do like Alicia and Elise though. Sorry again (to all Alice's/DDs named Alice)
This not your fault Smokie gave me an earworm 23 years ago.

Not too worried about the 'who the f**k is Alice' thing. It's a generation or two removed from a newborn being called it today.

Alice!

Cara

Cara

Cara

I love Cara, never liked Alice - can't get passed "A lice"

Alice

Alice.

Then again it's my name so I'm pretty biased

Cara Emilia x

Well, dd born safely at 2.35 this morning. Still torn on names. We've been sort of calling her Cara but I'm not sure how well it's suiting her. Hoping a couple more days will help my decision

Congratulations!

Congratulations! I like Cara because of the meaning and less popular than Alice. :)

Alice

Can't get past the fact that Alice has lice in it. Sorry.
