If I like the name Florence, Anastasia, Adeline, Madeline. Do you have any other suggestions?

Freya and Saskia are no go as my DH dislikes them (but I love them.)

Something classic, but not common. But equally not too out there.

I know one Florence Matilda and another Matilda Florence which gives me the impression that if you like one you'll like the other! I may be wrong Smile.

Sounds like a sort of continental/Latin kind of vibe?

Really loving the name Melissa at the moment; seems to have fallen out of favour since the 90s, but I don't understand why!

Parthenope was Florence Nightingale's sister.

Ooohhh thank you for the suggestions! Sorry i hadn't popped back until now

Anya I do like Matilda. Tilly is a sweet nickname

Mrs I also like Evelyn but I think it's becoming really very popular now? I might be wrong?

Eiffeltower Melissa is lovely. You are right I haven't heard Melissa much lately. I don't know any children called that infact. That's a good contender!

I'll discuss with DH Smile
