Final 3 girls names

[Acunningruse]

Due on Friday and still undecided for girl's names. Shortlist is:
Lydia
Katherine (poss shortened to Katie?)
Ivy

Middle name will be Rose (family reasons) and surname is 4 syllables beginning with 'Sh'.

Thoughts please?!

I like Katherine the best.

Thanks all, think we might leave it as shortlist and see what she suits when she arrives

I have an Ivy, so I'm biased. But I'm not sure Ivy Rose is the best combination.

So, I'd say Katherine Rose. I love Katherine.

I love them all. We must have similar name taste. I'd just wait and see what seems right when she's born.

Lydia

Definitely not Ivy

Katherine is OK

That surprises me MrsMargeSimpson as I'd assume any Kate or Katies were Katherine or Kathryn or Catherine on the BC.. Same as a Lizzie would be an Elizabeth. Wouldn't it be quite unusual to just have Katie on the BC?

Definitely Katherine (Kathryn).

I love Ivy but it's a bit too floral with Rose. Lydia Rose is gorgeous

I love Katherine but not Katie

Lydia is gorgeous, and was on my shortlist, so that's definitely my favourite.

I also like Ivy, but think Ivy Rose is a bit too flowery in the literal sense! Katherine is ok, but seems a bit staid compared to the others.

Can't really go wrong with any of those names though.

I love Lydia and Katherine would be my second choice.

Don't like Ivy, plus is it's very 'in' at the moment which would put me off.

Very true about the plant theme! Hmm.
