Please help us name our baby girl!

[babymakesfive]

Our third - and last! - baby is due imminently, and we still haven't agreed on a name. We have two delightful DSs - Oscar and Leo - and are expecting our first DD. Last name is two syllables, beginning with P.

So far the names DH and I have agreed on are:
Beatrice
Eloise
Rosa

Combos with middle names might be:
Rosa Beatrice
Beatrice Eloise
Beatrice Rosa
Beatrice Lila
Eloise Beatrice

Names we love but can't use:
Vivienne
Madeleine
Delilah (adore this, but not brave enough!)

Would love thoughts on the above, or alternative suggestions!

Beatrice is a beautiful name.

Eloise, while a beautiful name, might be just a bit too similar in sound to Leo.

I really like Rosa Beatrice, and also Beatrice Eloise.

I love Delilah - go on, I dare you!

I really like Rosa, but think Rosanna is even prettier.

Eloise will probably become another of the 100s of little Ellies there are around.

How about:

Miranda
Catherine
Francesca
Josephine
Genevieve
Lydia

Beatrice Rose is the nicest.
From your sins names I would have suggested Poppy but with a P surname would be too much.

My suggestions

Nancy
Lilah
Norah
Frankie

They are all really nice. Sorry that's not too helpful but don't think you would go far wrong with any of them.

I think rosa goes best with the boys names

Slightly different but Eloise rose is lovely

Thanks for all the thoughts so far! Please keep them coming... one name I forgot to put on the list was Angelica (an outside choice as I don't love the nicknames, but it's still in contention!)

Mariella
Marianna
Mariette
Marnett
Miriam
Marnie
Madison
Victoria
Verity
Delia
Derryn
Darcia

Angelica is lovely!

Failing that, Beatrice Rosa.

I like Rosa Beatrice, though I like Rosalie and Rosina of all the 'Rose' names that are out there.
Maybe Rosina Beatrice?

I love Angelica Beatrice however.
Also Angelica Rosalie.

Am torn between Beatrice Rosa or Beatrice Lila.
I can't really improve on those but shall put forward Beatrice Camille.
If you go for Angelica otoh
Angelica Joy
Angelica Scarlett

You could be brave and use "Delilah " and shorten to "lilah" it's fab :)

Congratulations on your imminent arrival, I have a little girl 5 and she's a joy ( and a nightmare! ) after an 8 yr age gap with ds.

I would love to use Delilah but there are too many religious zealots on both sides of the family, unfortunately!

DH has has now informed me that he has gone off the name 'Rosa' - which is very annoying as that was probably my top choice. Who knew that naming girls could be so hard?

Appreciate all the opinions so far. Please keep the thoughts coming : )

Not on your list, but what about Tabitha? I think it goes well with the boys names. Tabitha Beatrice.

Eloise Rosa or Rosa Eloise

Angelica is lovely, and I like the NN Angel, but hate Ang/Angie (sp?)

Beatrice Eloise.

I prefer Beatrix to Beatrice so Beatrix Rose Surname.

Orianna
Lydia
Harriet
Scarlet
Madison

Ahem. I'm an Angelica. I have always loved my name. I was jelly, jelly baby, Nelly when I was little. Gel or nel now. It's s fab name!

is it terrible I really want to suggest 'Girly McGirlface'
in honour of this boat pollwww.nytimes.com/2016/03/22/world/europe/boaty-mcboatface-what-you-get-when-you-let-the-internet-decide.html?_r=0

but on a serious note, Rosa Eloise or Beatrice Eloise are lovely

My first had Angelica on the list - DH said no! Boo hop

Thanks, all! How cool to have a real-life Angelica on the thread : ) I love Tabitha but DH says 'cat'. He isn't budging on Rosa, and he's now having second thoughts about Beatrice (one of his friends just announced that their DD, born last week, will be Beatrice Grace!)

I am very fond of Eloise but I'm not sure if, as a PP mentioned, it doesn't 'go' with Leo. Elodie is out as we live overseas and nobody here has ever heard of the name (and they butcher the pronunciation when they try). Really stuck now!!
