Help bridging the gap between my list and DH's...

[ToesToesToes]

Baby 2 is due any day and same as last time, it's the girls names we're struggling with! If it were up to me, she'd be Vivienne but DH isn't a fan and I think I've run out of time to convince him! We both love Juliet but can't use as too similar. Names like Emily/Cecily sound weird with our surname!

Other names I like:
Evelyn
Alice (his favourite of my list)
Madeleine
Marianne
Camilla (but put off by HRH)
Xanthe (absolute no from DH)

DH likes:
Poppy (I used to like but I'm put off by the popularity)
Zoe (I'm not particularly keen)
Chloe (I'm not keen)

Any opinions/further suggestions? What might work as compromise names between our two lists?

Eliza
Flora
Eleanor
Livia
Lara

Emma
Rose
Cora
Eva
Clara
Charlotte

Isabella
Gabrielle
Ciara

Amy
Juliana/Julianne
Audrey
Vanessa
Elizabeth
Annabel
Lucy
Lucinda
Elsie
Penelope
Lydia
Phoebe
Beatrice
Violet
Freya

Matilda
Mina
Louisa
Rosie
Sylvie
Daphne
Esme

Love Vivienne. If I'd had a second daughter, I would have seriously been torn between Vivienne and Genevieve.

Will you say the name of your first child?

Have you got the same kind of girl shortlist as last time?

Alyssa?

Zara was the first one that came to mind. Or Clara? Lara?

Maybe a longer, vintagey formal name with a sweet -ie ending nickname would suit both of you:

Josephine called Josie or Posy
Cecilia or Cecily called Cece
Vivienne could be Vivi?
Beatrice - Bea

Or maybe a shorter, -ie name but one which feels more old-fashioned:

Marnie
Kitty
Hettie
Edie
Polly
Sadie

Phoebe
Lydia
Anna
Annie
Beatrice
Cora
Daphne
Emmeline
Edith
Florence
Eliza
Georgina
Grace
Genevieve
Harriet
Hannah
Ivy
Iris
Imogen
Isabelle
Julia
Josephine
Jemima
Jasmine
Jessamine
Lucy
Louisa
Matilda
Miriam
Marina
Maria
Mary
Margot
Martha
Maisie
Naomi
Penelope
Sophie
Sadie
Susannah
Thea
Tessa
Violet
Viviana
Viola
Zara

Phoebe
Amber
Cecilia
Portia
Ursula

Thank you! There are some lovely names here though sadly quite a few of them were already vetoed from my long list by DH. A few people have suggested Phoebe and weirdly, despite liking Zoe and Chloe, he's not a fan-it seems similar to me with the 'oe' and I prefer it!

DS is Edward known as Teddy at the moment, though I expect he'll become an Ed/Eddie as he gets older. Our boy name was decided before he was born last time but we never really got very far with the girls list and in the end it didn't matter!

What about Camille.... pronounced ca-mee in french.

Poppea - like Poppy but less common?

Could you find the compromise in the formal name/diminutive split IYSWIM?

Margaret or Mary known as Molly?
Marguerite known as Daisy?

That kind of thing?

I like Alice! Or Alicia, if you want something a bit longer / European

Cassandra?

I've got three girls and all of their names are in your list!
