Francesca. Beautiful name.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 26/11/2016 21:05

Francesca Rose

justdontevenfuckingstart · 26/11/2016 21:05

Do you have a preference for shortenings? My DD1's friends call her something I hate. Doesn't matter of course. Just a thought.

BossWitch · 26/11/2016 21:09

Francesca Rose, definitely. Lovely names, and now can be made more juvenile for cute kiddy nicknames (frannie!), elegant for when she grows up.

Congratulations on your little one!

KlingybunFistelvase · 26/11/2016 21:12

Francesca for me too!

IsabellaLouise · 26/11/2016 21:13

Nope, no NN preference!

They're both beautiful. I vote for Gabriella Rose.
Congratulations! Flowers

IsabellaLouise · 26/11/2016 21:13

Thank you Flowers

Do you prefer Frankie or Gaby? Because that's what everyone will call her.
I like Francesca/Frankie.

canwestart2016again · 26/11/2016 21:16

Francesca Rose flows nicely :)

IsabellaLouise · 26/11/2016 21:19

I'm not sold on any NNs... I'll always use the full name, but don't mind what other people call her!

Both are nice but prefer Gabriella Rose.

rainbow99 · 26/11/2016 21:20

Francesca Rose (I am biased though Smile) I think Gabriella is nice but don't like Gabby which for me would be the natural shortening. Having said that I don't like Fran but there are lots of other nn options to choose from for Francesca, Frankie, Cesca, Cescy, Chess, Chessie to name but a few!

Alyx80 · 26/11/2016 21:21

Gabriella! A little bit more unusual and I love Gaby too.

ChorusLine69 · 26/11/2016 21:35

Francesca is a beautiful name - and like Fran as a nn too

DramaAlpaca · 26/11/2016 21:37

Gabriella Rose

FatOldBag · 26/11/2016 21:40

Gabriella. She'll thank you when she's learning to spell her name.

ChittyBB · 26/11/2016 21:41

Both lovely, I think I'd go for Gabriella.

DorotheaHomeAlone · 26/11/2016 21:46

Love Francesca.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 26/11/2016 21:50

Gabriella.

Sooo much nicer nicknames

Sophronia · 26/11/2016 22:50

Gabriella

CakeRattleandRoll · 27/11/2016 07:54

Francesca

Ankleswingers · 27/11/2016 07:57

I like both of them. Beautiful names op.

Congratulations Flowers

Cosmicglitterghoul · 27/11/2016 07:59

Gabriella.

Pluto30 · 27/11/2016 08:36

Gabriella.

Gabby, Bri, Ella, Bella etc. can all work as nicknames.

On the other hand, I can't stand Fran or Franny.
