Jessica the most, yes its popular but as others said not loads around, all Jessica's I know are beautiful, popular and energetic, would definitely call future daughter this.

Isabella lovely also as similar feel.

Nice- Emily, Ava or Eva.

Definite no's - Imogen, Layla, Rosanna- all a bit boring and straight sounding.

Try referring to your bump with a new name every week and trying it out for size. Only between you and your DP/DH though Grin We very rapidly shelved names which we loved on paper but did not roll off the tongue for us.

Thanks everyone ! Think I've stroked Ava and Eva of the list as they r just too popular ! Hubby hates Freya so that's of. I'm now in 2 minds about Isabella. Harmony would have been the name as someone suggested but my friend took that one 2 months ago. Y is it so hard to come up with a name...

Emily.

Ceeceecee · 15/03/2016 20:55

Loads of these were on my list and I loved them but they are mostly so popular they have lost their specialness

Isabella - my favourite name for years but very very popular
Jessica - overused
Freya - always loved this but find it a bit weak now
Rosanna/rose - nice
Melody - Disney name
Lola - totally over-used
Ava - oh god, sooooo popular
Layla - common
Imogen - love it but it's another very popular one
Emily - very popular
Eva - so many Evas and Avas

I like Imogen and Rose.

See my thread here for why I would not go with Ava, Eve or Isobella: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/baby_names/2592472-So-many-girls-such-similar-names
