Rowan

NapQueen · 13/01/2017 13:33

Scarlet

PermanentlyPerplexed · 13/01/2017 13:38

Out of those - Grace.

Forget Scarlet, you're already at the !!!!!!! Stage with it.

Madeline (Maddie) - I couldn't anymore. Far too sad a reminder of a little girl that's still missing.

Ivy - a not very attractive plant

Rowan - wool

Madeleine. It's a classic, beautiful name with great nn's. It was my grandmother's name and she was a lovely lady.

Sirzy · 13/01/2017 13:45

Maddie or Grace.

Scarlet is lovely but as you already know wrong spelling will frustrate you I wouldn't go there

Notjustuser1458393875 · 13/01/2017 13:47

Rowan. I'm still sad DH vetoed it.

SoftSheen · 13/01/2017 13:47

Madeleine- as pp says, a classic, beautiful name.

strawberrypenguin · 13/01/2017 13:48

Maddie it's lovely although of your list the only one I wouldn't use is Scarlet as you'll spend all your time correcting people

user1483387154 · 13/01/2017 13:49

Madeleine

ICanCountToOneHundred · 13/01/2017 13:51

Rowan, I would say Scarlet but as you are already using exclamation marks at the wrong spelling I feel you would be frustrated an awful lot when the dreaded Scarlett was used.

Loyly · 13/01/2017 13:52

Madeleine

GrumpySausage · 13/01/2017 13:53

Madeline. It's beautiful.

I also like Rowan but the only ones I know are boys.

Mol1628 · 13/01/2017 13:53

Ivy or Rowan

Soubriquet · 13/01/2017 13:54

I like Ivy

girlelephant · 13/01/2017 13:55

I like Ivy or Rowan.

Madeline makes me think of poor Madeline McCann and Scarlett has the spelling issue!

I like Grave but not as much as Ivy or Rowan

ThoraGruntwhistle · 13/01/2017 13:55

My favourites from your list are Rowan and Scarlet. I've only ever met one Rowan so I don't think it's that common and it's a really pretty name too.

Hassled · 13/01/2017 13:56

Grace or Ivy. Except that there's Poison Ivy - so Grace.

EverythingEverywhere1234 · 13/01/2017 13:56

Ivy or Rowan. Congratulations Flowers

ThenBellaDidSomethingVeryKind · 13/01/2017 13:56

Rowan. I love it, and wanted it for dd, and later, ds, but was vetoed by dh

AthenasOwl · 13/01/2017 13:57

Ivy or rowan

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 13/01/2017 13:57

Madeleine is lovely

Grace is really overused now, Scarlet will drive you insane with the spelling errors.

I like Ivy too, but I would avoid Rowan as I know several baby/toddler boys with that name now

Bundao · 13/01/2017 13:57

Madeleine.

Grace is my daughter's middle name. It's too common now.

I had an Irish Setter called Scarlet, an old auntie called Ivy and know a boy called Rowan.

Gspain · 13/01/2017 13:58

Maddie

MarmiteDoesYouGood · 13/01/2017 14:03

Ivy, then Grace.
