Wow - so 88% for Sienna so far! It was our initial favourite, but I wonder if it's 'very 2017' and will date? Then I came up with Rosa (after Rosa Parks). Very interesting to see ... am keeping an open mind! Smile

Honestly, none-sorry. Raphaela sounds incredibly pretentious Confused

FizzyGreenWater · 24/08/2017 16:41

A

AnneElliott · 24/08/2017 16:42

Sorry none of those.

Crumbelina · 24/08/2017 16:43

Fair enough Amatree - each to their own. Smile

It's likely we'll end up calling her Raphy or Rapha for short (so hopefully not too pretentious Smile)

Never heard the name Raphaela before, is it Italian?

starkid · 24/08/2017 16:49

A or C for me, too many syllables with Sienna I think.

JamOrCreamFirst · 24/08/2017 16:51

A

Argeles · 24/08/2017 16:54

A

PoppyPopcorn · 24/08/2017 16:56

A - unless your surname starts with R too.

Raphaela Rosa Robinson might be a bit TOO much.

Jooni · 24/08/2017 17:04

C, then A.

I don't think B flows very well - feels more like 2 separate first names listed IYKWIM.
