As title says - boys name has been sorted for ages and life will be so much easier if baby is a boy!
As it stands our 2 front runners for girls are:
Alexandra Emily
Florence Emily

Surname is one syllable.
Any preferences or do you think we’ll just know when we see her (if it is a her!)

Alexandra..

Florence is over used and the nn's are potentially Flo, Florrie, Flossie.....Alex as a nn is better than those.

I like them both. I know lots of teenage Alexandras, though, which makes it a bit meh for me, though I still think it's nice. I actually don't know any Florences, so that sounds fresher to me, although I'm told it's very common now.

We have an Alexandra but always known as Lexi.

I like both names. However with Emily as middle name I'd go with Alexandra, because Florence Emily almost sounds like semolina in the middle.
