Eva, Charlotte or Leticia??

[IsSpringSprangedYet]

We are expecting no 5, and after 4 boys, it's a girl!!

Every girl before now would have been Eva. It's also a family name and I do like it. We like Charlotte, DH likes Leticia but I'm not 100% on that one. He pronounces it LA-TI-SEE-A and I keep saying it as LA-TISH-A....... not sure on that one.

What do you think? TIA

Eva. Just beautiful.

Leticia is pronounced Le/tee/sha. My pick would be Charlotte

Charlotte, definitely, with Eva as a middle name

Leticia. I'd spell it Laetitia too, or Letitia to get the pronunciation
Le-tish-a. Leticia is the Spanish spelling, though quite typical now, so I suppose by rights it might be pronounced differently.
Eva is nice, but it's bland and overused. I really dislike Charlotte.

Eva or charlotte.

Or both
Eva Charlotte and Charlotte Eva work well.

Charlotte by a mile. I love Eve but not so keen on variations like Eva/Evie. Really don’t like Leticia, sorry

Thanks for your thoughts everyone.

I like Eva or Charlotte, not sure where DH heard Laeticia from. Surprisingly there is only one other Eva at school and she has just turned 7. A billion Evies, Pheobes and Lexis though. I only know one other Charlotte. DH is a bit worried there will be lots of Charlotte's because of Princess Charlotte, but I'd rather he steered to that than Laetitia.

He has also chucked Ellen in there too..... what do you all think?

Yes to Ellen. It's a great name - strong and simple.

Ellen is pretty but it makes me think of “the” Ellen, whom I can take or leave (but would rather leave).

What about Erin? Is that due a “comeback” yet?

Eva is pretty - I always like it pronounced with a short e (so it’s pronounced like the start of “ever”) but am aware that most would pronounce it with a long e sound.

I also really like Charlotte- popular but classic.

I am not keen on Laeticia.

Let us know what you decide

Laetitia. The other two are deathly dull and Leticia is too lettucey.

Charlotte.

Eva sounds great :)

Letitia or Laetitia. Eva is a big No from me,
Charlotte is the safest bet.

Letitia could be Letty or Tish. Prefer Lottie.

Love charlotte
Eva is ok
Not a fan of Letiticia

Eva is a beautiful name and less popular than Charlotte in my experience. I like Laetitia (that spelling) but think it's going to cause problems with pronunciation down the line. It's the sort of name I'd say to go for and overlook that if you love it, but not if you're indifferent to it.

I find Ellen a rather dull name personally - I prefer Eleanor or, even better, Elinor. Or Elin!

My daughter is Eva Charlotte. Love it!

I don't like Leticia and wouldn't use it if your DH is pronouncing it incorrectly

A lot of people will like Charlotte but I find it very boring and outdated.

Like Eva the best out of the three. A nice, classic name.

I don't like Leticia at all..would Venetia be any good? I know one who goes by Teesh/Neesh.

Eva and Charlotte are both perfectly fine names.

Charlotte Eva :)

Charlotte is lovely, Eve is nice, Leticia is OK
Remember everyone has different tastes you won't please everyone, if you want something a little different then Leticia is the way to go.

Ellen and Eva are both pretty :)

I really dislike Leticia.

Leticia is vile and the absolute opposite to the other two names.

Agree.
