Evening!

I'm due in a fortnight, and myself and DP are still finalising our names!

We don't know if it's a girl or a boy, but we've decided on our boys name.

Our original name was Isobel, but the popularity of it (inc different spellings) is putting us off slightly!

What do you think of the below names?

Rosie (middle name Willow)
Willow (middle name Rose)
Órla (middle name Rose)

My partner has Irish heritage, I have French so any suggestions of names would be welcome too!

Thank you Smile

All beautiful names but Orla Rose my favourite. Love it. Pretty without being too girly, no spelling confusion, simple and classy.

Willow Rose.

Thank you @helpmum2003 that's what I'm leaning towards too!

Definitely Willow Rose 😊

I had to rule out Willow unfortunately, as it's the name of my friends daughter! But I've always loved it!!

Orla is also nice but I'm not crazy about it! Rosie always makes me think of Rosie and Jim, (the TV show I used to watch as a kid if you by chance,didn't see it) And I think of rosie cheeks!

@Awwlookatmybabyspider @Meemzinha thank you!

I also have the same problem with Rosie, I love the name but it just reminds me of the Rosie and Jim theme tune!

Yes I prefer Rose to Rosie. Could always use Rosie as a nn if wanted.

MollyHuaCha · 25/01/2018 18:49

Orla Rose

@autumncountryrose

Well Órla and Willow are very beautiful so you have two great options 😊

Orla Rose, but do like Willow too!

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 25/01/2018 19:54

Orla Rose.

Willow Rose - but Orla Rose is rather lovely too. Very graceful sounding names.

Órla Rose sounds lovely Smile
