Does everyone go off names?

[Buntysoven]

This baby naming lark gas been nothing but drama. 7 weeks to go.. I found Callia on mn and thought Bingo! but DH has said he's gone off it as it's "a bit much". Our dd is Nancy which DH says is more down to earth. He hasn't any suggestions obviously. Do you please? It was so easy with our first.

Louisa
Georgina
Elizabeth

Callia is lovely..

Tessa
Rosa
Maggie
Sadie
Polly
Eloise
Wren
Beatrice
Penelope
Greta
Tabitha

Nancy and
Heidi
Molly
Ellie
Poppy
Casey
Lucy
Betsy
Millie

Cassia
Aster
Blythe
Clara
Arwen
Daphne
Ailsa
Estelle / Stella
Flora
Eleanor / Elinor
Greta
Juliet
Leonora
Jemima
Marcia
Polly
Tabitha
Winifred / Winnie

FWIW, I think Blythe, Clara, Daphne, Greta and Polly "go" best with Nancy.

I agree that Callia is a bit ethereal compared to Nancy. Maybe even a bit contrived.

Nancy and -
Josephine (Josie)
Sarah (Sadie)
Rosalie
Romy
Stella
Alice
Jessica (Jess) - to go all Mitford...

Iris
Cora
Camilla

Molly
Daisy
Phoebe
Polly
Maisie

Callia spubds a bit awkward. Maybe Cecilia or Camilla instead?

Celia and Nancy

I vote Clara and Nancy or Sadie and Nancy :-)

Nancy and Ruby
Nancy and Jasmine
Nancy and Chloe

Willa
Pippa
Eliza
Gwen
Ivy
Cora
Greta
Sylvie
Liesl
Fern
Maeve
Tamsin
Erin
Beth

I prefer just Calla.

Do love Nancy, what about Polly?

Tess
Nell
Margot
Cecelia
Astrid
Ingrid
Elle

Thanks everyone. Some names I really love here, mostly ones I can't use like Fern, Clara, Louisa, Jess, Iris and Polly. DHs mum said Calla makes her think of gas! 😂She's pushing for Sally but as 3 neighbours have a dog called Sally I'd be crushed in the stampede when I called her in for tea...and Im a bit worried two ee endings sound twee. Please keep the suggestions coming. I'm HUGE and think she may come early! DH likes Morven (NO) and Judith which I think is a bit too dowdy.

Elfyn those names are gorgeous. Thanks. Will run past DH tomorrow x

I quite like Morven, actually!

Similar but a bit softer: Merryn or Mirren?

Nancy and Mabel

Judith is nice imo - could be Judy or Jude for short.

How about:
Hazel
Saskia
Edith (Edie)
Honor
Vita
Evelyn
Cleo
Livia

Judith is nice imo - could be Judy or Jude for short.

How about:
Hazel
Saskia
Edith (Edie)
Honor
Vita
Evelyn
Cleo
Livia

sheesh

You could have Juliet/Julia with Jude or Judy for short, in the same way that Jude can be short for Julian.

Rona - Means "My joy"
Abigail - Means "Father's joy"
Beatrix - "She who brings happiness"
Sara - Means "Princess"

Amanda - Means "Worthy of love"
Cilla
Marsha
Mariah

Seconding the Clara suggestion, sounds lovely with Nancy.
