I need a little help narrowing down names. My current list is Matilda, Tabitha or Ada. I have a small problem in that oh doesn't like any of them so suggestions of similar names are also welcome!

Really good website for checking popularity of names. Matilda is indeed a popular at the moment! names.darkgreener.com

faye and b is like A and B .. no? tbh i wouldn't have noticed that until oh pointed it out

Rhyming would be Faye and, um, Bay. Not Faye and Bea (Bee).

lellyli · 25/04/2017 21:00

no i know fay and bea don't rhyme lol i mean it's like child A and child B aka Faye and Bea. seriously though i'd have never noticed if oh hadn't pointed it out it's not a deal breaker. still considering beatrice as i love the name

Evelyn? A bit like Ava for you, and the yn ending like Branwyn for DH!

lellyli · 25/04/2017 21:45

haha yes stitchedglitched that's good thinking. i do like it, maybe it's a grower. i know matilda doesn't really go with faye but my tastes have changed a bit in the last few years. iris makes me think of eyes though i do like it. it's so much harder naming a girl the second time around!

lellyli · 25/04/2017 21:54
