Helena or Susanna

[Uhohmummy]

Which do you prefer? We’re looking for a classic English but not too popular name for DD2.
We would probably use shortenings - Nell or Susie.
Names I like but can’t use because of close family/DH has vetoed are:
Jemima
Eliza
Georgia
Tabitha
Middle name will likely be Charlotte, to honour family.
Interested to hear what people think and also get any more suggestions.

LOVE Helenna

*helena!

I like Nell, but not keen on Helena
Susanna is nicer and I like Susie, and I think it sounds better with the middle name of Charlotte

I like Helena and Felicity from your updated list. Lovely names!

Both are beautiful but I definitely think Susannah needs the h at the end.

Love both but susanna edges it. Also prefer as Susannah though.

All lovely can't lose with them

Susanna without the h! Why add an extra letter that isn't pronounced?

Much prefer Susanna. Susie is a lovely name.

I love both but prefer Susanna! It's my daughter's name. We call her Susie and Suse.

Thanks for the feedback. Opinion seems divided so I'll have to wait and see which suits her best!

I like Susannah and Susie.

Definitely Helena

Definitely Helena. It's such a classy elegant name.
