My shortlist

[Summ3r]

I've made a list of girl names I like as everyone I rhyme off hubby says no. So this is my short list of names he will hopefully pick from what is ur favourite ??
Isabella
Jessica
Freya
Rosanna/rose
Melody
Lola
Ava
Layla
Imogen
Emily
Eva

Isabella
Jessica
Lola

Imogen is nicest in my opinion. I also like Rosanna just because its different.

The other names are just far too popular for me seems to be a new Isabella/Isabel/Bella born everyway I turn lately.

Melody is also nice and different

Imogen
Ava
Emily
Jessica

NOT Layla or Lola or Isabella

What about Louisa? Or Alice?

Freya, Melody or Imogen get my vote.

Isabella and Lola really popular so no.

Rosanna or Rose

Isabella - Love it. Like Izzy too and Bella is okay. Heard Issy and Ibbie which are lovely and a bit different.
Jessica - Love it. I have an 8 year old Jessica and, although it's been top 10ish for a long time, there seem to be strangely few around.
Freya - Never been keen on this but not sure why, it's pretty enough
Rosanna/rose - Quite like it. Prefer Rosie to either.
Melody - Don't like this at all.
Lola - It's ok. I wasn't keen but now I know such a gorgeous little Lola that it's growing on me.
Ava - Love it. Yes, it's popular but names are popular for a reason.
Layla - Quite like it. Prefer Lyla, Lyra and Lila
Imogen - Really like it.
Emily - Quite like it
Eva - Love it. Think it has a classier, more adult feel than Ava but that might just be because it's been in common usage for longer.

I think I'd pick Jessica or Ava

Isabella
Layla
Ava.

Rosanna, Imogen or Freya.

Love Rosanna, Eva and Ava. In spite of their popularity I only know one Eva and one Ava under 5. Some of the other names on your list are nice but a bit dull IMO eg. Emily, Jessica. Melody is a bit silly. The other names on there are fine but not really my cup of tea and mostly very popular also.

Freya
Rosanna
Lola
Eva

I like them all, maybe not Lola or Layla or Emily so much.

The only thing with Ava and Eva (and Eve/Evie) is that there are so many it is easy to get them mixed up.

Imogen or Freya are my favourites from your list
Emily and Rose also nice names

Definitely Rosanna or Melody. Freya is a bit drippy and the others are too common.

Not keen on Lola or Layla but the rest are lovely, especially Jessica, Imogen and Freya. Of the 'rose' names I prefer Rosalind to Rosanna but the latter is still pretty.

Not Isabella - the class will be full of them! I like most of the others apart from Melody. I love Rosanna, or my DGD's name Anya - and she's the only one in the school! Mind it's a small school. My other DGD is Isla which is pretty but very popular.

Isabella - I really like! Izzie and Bella are lovely nicknames, too :)
Jessica - My sister's name, so I like it! Jessie/Jess are nice :)
Freya - Nope, I don't like it - it sounds frumpy, IMO :(
Rosanna/Rose - I love them both; I adore Rosie! (I'd just go with that)...
Melody - It sounds pretty and Mel is cool.
Lola - Nice
Ava - Nice, but I do prefer Eva...
Layla - Again, sounds pretty.
Imogen - Okay
Emily - I have a soft spot for this name! It's classic, but cool and pretty - I love the NN Emmie :)
Eva - Love, it can have the NN Eve/Evie too!

My favourite is probably Isabella (but that's at a push!)

My favourites: Isabella, Rosanna/Rose, Emily and Eva!

Thanks everyone! Choosing a name is sooooo hard ! Does anyone have any other suggestions going by the names I like ? Just in case I'm missing a really good name !

Love Rosanna! It's a lovely balance of quite rare but familiar sounding.

Imogen and Emily are both sweet

You've picked many names that I liked when we were expecting my DC

I like/love many of your favourite choices, but as you've asked for further inspiration, here's one or two names we also liked &/or have a similar feel to other names on your list;

Alexandra
Beth/Bethan
Lyla
Esme
Essie
Edie
Francesca
Helena/Elena
Bryony
Verity
Olivia
Hannah
Naomi
Leoni/Leona
Anna
Leah
Alana
Charlotte
Scarlet
Emma
Georgia
Marnie

Definitely prefer melody or Freya. As a primary teacher the others are just too popular! In a class of 30 this year there are seven isobel/ isabellas and four Emily, Eva, Ava,!! And I teach in a small school!!!

Oh! And my best friends daughter is Layla and there seem to be lots of those. What about Leila instead, I think its a much prettier spelling!

Melody, Freya or Emily for me.

I like them all except Lola and Layla, but if I had to choose it would be Jessica followed by Imogen.
