Audrey

Pemba · 28/08/2017 20:38

Audrey Hepburn was quite beautiful though!

Babymamamama · 28/08/2017 20:40

Layla

AccrualIntentions · 28/08/2017 21:07

Audrey Hepburn was quite beautiful though!

As is Audrey Tatou and Audrey Quock, and I'm sure there are plenty more beautiful women called Audrey!

carrotcakecupcake · 28/08/2017 21:11

Audra was on my list for DD, so my vote would be for Audrey Grin

Buddyelf · 28/08/2017 21:53

Layla. But I'm biased, my eldest DD is Layla!

grufallosfriend · 28/08/2017 22:23

Audrey. Definitely

Olivia is so overused and Layla isn't classy or elegant at all imo,

Congratulations!

Audrey or Olivia

Fozzleyplum · 28/08/2017 22:32

Audrey. It's underused, strong and rather cool. Think Hepburn, Tatou and Forbes-Hamilton!

  1. Layla
  2. Olivia
  3. Audrey

Layla's fab because of the song.

I like Olivia too.

Not a fan of Audrey. Sounds dreary to me, but my main gripe with it is the lack of nicknames. I went to school with an Audrey and she got "Auds", "Auj" and "Aujie" (basically orgy). Not very nice.

On popularity, I'm in Australia, but all three names are quite popular here. in 2016, Olivia was no. 1, Layla was no. 31 and Audrey was no. 35.

Audrey! (Hepburn. I don't watch any soaps or know anyone in 'real life' who does?! That's old fashioned if you ask me!)

CPtart · 29/08/2017 16:56

I don't watch soaps. I haven't for 15 years. But the name Audrey still reminds me of Audrey in Corrie. Which reinforces how negative the connotations are all these years later.

Lozmatoz · 29/08/2017 18:40

Audrey Roberts...

Justgivemesomepeace · 29/08/2017 19:05

She's absolutely beautiful. Please don't call her Audrey. It's only popular on mums net, not in the real world. It's a middle aged persons name.
Layla is best of your choices.

early30smum · 29/08/2017 19:13

Congrats! She looks like an Olivia to me!

DuggeeHugs · 29/08/2017 20:14

Audrey! There was one at school and she was definitely the coolest girl there

sandgrown · 29/08/2017 20:18

Layla but spelt Leila because it is much prettier and not connected to the song.

TealStar · 29/08/2017 20:20

Audrey. I want a third dd just to call her Audrey. It won't happen though!

Surprised it's getting popular; I thought I was being really original! Slightly gutted

BroomstickOfLove · 29/08/2017 20:24

Audrey. Cool, clever and beautiful

MrsJoyOdell · 29/08/2017 20:24

I would choose Audrey and very nearly did for DD. I don't like Layla at all, and Olivia is far too popular for my taste, though still beautiful and did make 'the list' for DD for a while.

KeiraH · 29/08/2017 20:32

I love Layla it's my grandmother name and my daughter middle name. So I was going to say Layla until I saw the photo of your daughter. Your little girl is beautiful, but looks like an Audrey to me

BewareOfTheToddler · 29/08/2017 20:35

I like Layla best but prefer the spelling Leila. But I have to say, she does look like an Audrey!

Congratulations, she's beautiful!

CakeRattleandRoll · 30/08/2017 06:13

She is soooo gorgeous! Another vote for Audrey.

PinkFlamingo888 · 30/08/2017 06:21

She's an Audrey! I know an 18 year old Audrey and she's very cool

diodati · 30/08/2017 06:44

Leila
