Hi, I'm due a baby girl any day now but really struggling with names. I have a daughter called Lucy and want a traditional name that goes well with this. I would like opinions on the names - Sophie and Amy.
Sophie - too popular?
Amy - too plain?
New name suggestions welcome too please.

Thank you.

Amy has negative connotations in my personal opinion, sorry. I prefer Alice.

Babyspider maybe a local thing but it was definitely over popular here; DSis was one of 4 in a class of 20 Confused__

Eve or Ellen

Wow thank you very much everyone 😃 Nuttyknitter 😂 haha! From reading the posts I seem to prefer 2 syllable names and have a much bigger list to show my husband 😃

We are using Ann as the middle name and we have a 1 syllable surname. Does that make Amy plain now? The alliteration of A does not bother me because Lucy's middle name is Louise.

I'm a Lucy and my sister is called Josephine.

TheTartOfAsgard · 09/01/2017 14:36

If Ann is the middle name don't use Alice - Alice Ann is like Alison

Roseandbee · 09/01/2017 23:46

what about Emmie although it might be annoying if people think your saying Amy anyway

Letmestartagain · 10/01/2017 14:40

Just some suggestions that would go with Lucy...

Eliza
Elise
Eleanor
Georgia
Grace/Gracie
Ruby

Amy is not a plain name to my ears. It is simple and pretty, and suits all kinds of girls and women. It also has a lovely meaning. Amy Ann is a fine, classic name.

blinkineckmum · 10/01/2017 20:35

I love Amy.
