Down to three names for DD... which one to choose??

The list for our soon-to-be-born DD has been whittled down to three names (this took a while, as DH has been very indecisive this time around!) We each have a different favourite.

The contenders are:
Eloise
Beatrice
Annabel

Brothers are Oscar and Leo. Two-syllable surname. Would love opinions on the final three - this is our last baby and I am anxious to avoid name regrets!

Eloise is my favourite! Goes nicely with your boys too :)

Annabel is my favourite but also really like Eloise. Less keen on Beatrice.

They all go well with your boys.

Eloise

I also like Elodie

GingerLeaves · 04/04/2016 13:53

Eloise Smile

Eloise is lovely, I think it sounds well with your boys too.

Summ3r · 04/04/2016 14:08

Definitely annabel

minipie · 04/04/2016 14:17

We have very similar taste - all these were in our final shortlist for DD1 (though Annabel and Beatrice were more DH's choice than mine)

We chose Eloise Smile

Beatrice for me

calamityjam · 04/04/2016 14:24

dd is called Eloise but she prefers to be known as Ellie. I love Eloise, I hope she grows to like it when she gets older.

HairySubject · 04/04/2016 14:25

I like all of those but Eloise is my favourite xxx

FurbysMakeSexNoises · 04/04/2016 14:25

Beatrice then Annabel then Elouise.

Really love Beatrice. I think girls called Bea are awesome.

LuciaInFurs · 04/04/2016 14:28

Eloise is lovely.

WaterWorld · 04/04/2016 14:31

All three are great names
I love Lois as a shortening for Eloise.

CPtart · 04/04/2016 14:33

Eloise (or even better, Louisa).

missapples · 04/04/2016 14:37

Annabel is getting very popular, love Eloise and Beatrice

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 04/04/2016 14:37

Annabel(le), Eloise and then Beatrice would be my order of preference.

DeliveredByKiki · 04/04/2016 15:32

Beatrice, I adore Beatrice

Raeray · 04/04/2016 15:36

Eloise gets my vote!

Pantsalive · 04/04/2016 16:29

Eloise. It was on our list too.
DS would have had Beatrice as a middle name if he'd been a girl.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/04/2016 17:16

Eloise then Beatrice, with Annabel quite a lot further down. Wanted Eloise for dd1 but dp wouldn't let me!

daisywhoopsie · 04/04/2016 17:18

Eloise
