A sister for Darcey, to be born at Christmas

[LapinR0se]

Surname is one syllable and starts with B.
Just to make it more tricky, we live in a francophone country so needs to be something that works for French speakers as well as English ones.

Any nice ideas?

Noelle (Nell)

Noelle (Nell)

Anais is quite nice...i think it's of French origin?

Anouk is French, from the film Chocolat, always liked it

I don't want an actual French name. Just one that works ok for French speakers.
E.g. Harrison is not good because they don't pronounce the h and hérisson is a hedgehog. (I know that's a boy's name am just trying to illustrate)

I was going to say Noelle. Love it.
What about Natalie? It's a christmassy name.

Catherine is good for French too

Thank you so much for the suggestions!!

I find Noelle a bit twee and I knew too many Natalie's in the UK who weren't very nice.

Catherine is Darcey's middle name so that's out. But yes it works fine in France

Holly

Belle
Eve
Clara
Gabriella

I've asked my French dp. He thinks Annie/Anna or Phillipa would work.

I know, same Natalie thing here - although every Natalie I have met as an adult has been lovely! What about Amy?

Natalie. Means born at Christmas.

Holly is lovely

Alexandra

Holly would be Olly here.

Alexandra is not bad

Oh, Clara is beautiful!

Darcey and Clara. :)

It is nice but my sister has a Ciara so that might get confusing for everybody?

Really? I don't think they're alike at all!

Ruby?

There is one letter difference!

Amelia/Amelie? I know popular in the UK but maybe not so much where you are living?

I meant phonetically, OP.

Maria

Is Sasha short for something or just Sasha?
