Zoe,

Zoe. I'm not keen on Willow at all. It"s a bit hippy dippy and I associate it with Weeping Willows and the old Blue Peter cat

Most definitely Willow.

Zoe has had its day.

I hope I've read properly and only one other PP has suggested Willa but I think this is a lovely name which may feel less faddish than Willow (to some)? I actually think both Zoe and Willow are lovely names though, so go with what you fancy/what sounds better with dc's surname.

I have a Zoe. I considered, and still love, the name Willow (massive Buffy fan) but Dp wasn't as keen. Both lovely names. Dd(9) loves her name.

I like Willow, but I do think it immediately makes you think of willowy, ephereal women, and would be a hard name to pull off if that wasn’t your body type. Kind of like calling an unmusical child Harmony....
But maybe that’s a bit harsh and maybe we should have more Willows of all shapes and sizes since it’s a pretty name!

Whomping Willow Grin

Zoë is gorgeous

I do love Greek names though.

Willow may date easily and seems a bit "celebrity" for me. But I am a simple gal and also - I love the name Lola (which usually takes a bashing here) so don't worry about what I think Grin

Good luck Op

Zoë or Willa.
