Olivia, Chloe or Daisy?

[smallplainblonde]

Hi all,

I'm not due for another few months but thinking about names and finding it difficult to agree with DH on girl's names. We have a couple of names for a boy that we both love.

So, I know the names I've listed above are v popular in the UK but I don't live in the UK and I don't think Olivia is overly popular where I live. Daisy is probably the most popular.

I love Daisy and DH loves Olivia (I do really like it also). Lately I've really been liking Chloe but I'm wondering if it's a bit dated?

Could you give me your opinions on these names please and also maybe some other names that we might like based on these?

My favourite is Daisy

I like all three. I can also imagine three sisters with those names!

I know a Maisie and always think what a lovely name.

Olivia for me. Id try and use nickname liv or vivi. Don't like the other two at all.

Olivia

Olivia! Love it so much... I like Liv/Livvie too! :) I see Ollie as a NN for Oliver!

I know its a bit bah humbug but all of those names are so banal. In DS' class at school there are two Olivias, one Daisy.

Chloe is quite generic too.

Does it have to be a popular name?

I am already bored at seeing the names 'Pippa, Poppy, Amelia, Ava' . The most unusual old fashioned name I have seen anyone call their child was Penelope and Cleopatra.

There are literally thousands of names to choose from and its like everyone likes the same 20 names over and over.

Olivia but she will always be Olivia A or Olivia S or whatever as there will be loads in school with that name.

Olivia

Thanks all - just logged in and realised there's lots of new replies. Looks like it's Olivia then (although I have a strong feeling it's a boy after all).

Just in regards to the popularity of Olivia, I'm not in the UK and it's really not popular where I am. I told someone the other day we were considering it and she actually commented that it was lovely and really unheard of these days.

Centi - I'm not purposefully choosing names that are "popular". I'm just choosing names that DH and I like. I understand a lot of people will be put off by names that are considered popular but each to their own - I have to say it doesn't overly concern me.

Olivia but I guess now that it is more likely a boy then Oliver. :-)
