Hi all,

DH and I are expecting (Grin) and we have a boys name picked out, but we're struggling for girls. DH is quite easygoing but I'm quite picky. So far we like the following:

  • Verity
  • Eden
  • Sylvie
  • Xanthe
  • Margot (DH's fav)
  • Aurelie/Aurelia (my fav)


Which do you like best?? Any other suggestions to throw in the mix? Any middle name suggestions...?

Floral names are ruled out as our surname is Rose.

The problem with Verity is that it's quite likely some people will drop the 'T'... 😬

I like Sylvie and Xanthe from your list.

Aurelia - I've always pronounced or- ray-Lee-ahh so Aurelie I'd say Or-ray- Lee. However I think your going to get a lifetime of Or-rah-lie or Or-red-Lee-ah etc. I like though but see it being a pain!

aurelia or aurelie both sound gorgeous aurelie's a bit sweeter while aurelia's more sophisticated imho
