What's your favourite unfussy girl name?

Dd3 is due any day, we won't name her till we meet her but I'm struggling to even get a shortlist.

By unfussy I mean something not too out there, not made up and not a nickname.

Thanks!

I'm yet to meet a Frances who doesn't seem very capable Smile

Late?? Can't decide if that's a really cool name or plain daft

OhDearToby · 07/06/2017 12:28

I assumed Late was a autocorrect of Kate Grin although if this baby doesn't come out soon Late would be very fitting.

And probably terribly old fashioned but I rather like the Janet.

Both my DDs and my name have been mentioned on this thread!

I also love Frances.

I really like Jessica but it is the name of me ex Mil. Not that she's not a nice enough person, it would just feel wrong to name a baby after her Grin

@OhDearToby if you like Lyra but worried it's a bit fussy, what about Lila?

Other names I would deem unfussy;

Nell
Rose
Eve
Emma
Fay
Ava
