Final 3 names can't decide!

Our little one is several days old & we're really stuck on a name. Our surname is double barrelled and begins with E. we have 3 shortlisted. One she looks like but not either of our favourites, one is my favourite & 1 is DP's. What are your thoughts on these names please?

Adeline (rhymes with Caroline)
Imogen
Niah (rhymes with fire)

Thanks Smile

Adeline.

Posted too soon! I love Imogen. I

Again! Classic name, beautiful and not overused. Adeline is sweet but just seems a bit faddy by comparison and I dint like the sound of Niah if it does rhyme with fire. Love Nia though.

Imogen

Imogen.

Adeline

HeyRoly · 05/12/2016 13:12

Not Niah. It looks made up, doesn't sound very nice and doesn't look especially nice written down. You'll also get lots of people pronouncing it "NEE-ah".

Imogen and Adeline are lovely, however!

twilightrevolution · 05/12/2016 13:26

Adeline for me, too. Congrats!

Imogen or adeline

Allalonenow · 05/12/2016 13:59

Adeline or Imogen, both are lovely.

Not keen on Niah at all.

EnriqueTheRingBearingLizard · 05/12/2016 14:00

Another vote for Imogen. Congratulations Flowers

beela · 05/12/2016 14:00

Imogen.

She'll spend the rest of her life correcting the pronunciation of the other two (Adeleene and Nee-ah) - you've already had to explain the pronunciation on your original post!

Brown76 · 05/12/2016 14:02

I like them all but I think Imogen simplest to pronounce and nice with an E surname.

halcyondays · 05/12/2016 14:05

Imogen

Sophronia · 05/12/2016 14:35

Adeline is lovely. Gets my vote!
