We have on our list

Fern
Florence

Love Robyn and Florence!

JenniferAnistonsHair · 27/01/2018 20:41

They're all lovely names.

I'd personally avoid Delilah, as I wouldn't choose the same initial as her sibling.

My favourites are Fern & Robyn x

GlorianaBanana · 27/01/2018 20:43

Robyn

ChocolateCrunch · 27/01/2018 20:50

Robyn

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 27/01/2018 20:52

Daisy and Fern! Gorgeous!

AnElderlyLadyOfMediumHeight · 27/01/2018 20:52

Florence or Penelope.
Robyn does go well, but I'm not keen on it.

TenThousandSpoons · 27/01/2018 20:56

Robyn and Daisy sound lovely together.
Penelope if you’d usually call her Penny, otherwise no.
Florence is nice.
Don’t like Delilah or Fern and especially not Fern with Daisy as sounds so plain/sensible next to sunny, pretty Daisy 🌿🌼

Love Daisy and Fern

holidayqueriwifi · 27/01/2018 21:04

Robyn

MaryPoppinsStoleMyHandbag · 27/01/2018 21:10

I love Fern. Though think I prefer the spelling Fearne. My second choice would be Florence though it seems quite popular lately. Not keen on any of the others.

happytobemrsg · 27/01/2018 21:12

Love love love Florence

tellitermine · 27/01/2018 21:31

I really like Florence, not keen on the others tbh, Daisy and Fern are too plant like for me, plus I agree with what someone else said about Fern sounding plain and sensible next to pretty, sunny happy Daisy (which I love btw) congratulations!

mintich · 27/01/2018 21:31

Florence and Penelope

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 27/01/2018 21:32

Daisy and Fern

DramaAlpaca · 27/01/2018 21:33

Fern or Robyn go best with Daisy without being too similar.

The others are quite different in style.

kaytee87 · 27/01/2018 21:54

Robyn by far

Joeybee · 27/01/2018 22:27

Fern - A bit plain and boring.
Florence - Too 'trendy' right now. I feel like there are suddenly loads of Florences. The name will get popular, but then will become really dated and drop out of popularity quickly too.
Penelope - Cute and love Penny as a nickname. It's an old name that's totally ready too come back.
Delilah - Nice name, unusual but not unknown and theres LOADS of nicknames you could get from it. For me I just can't get past they Tom Jones song!
Robyn - Boring and dated.

Mybabystolemysanity · 27/01/2018 22:29

Love Florence and Delilah. They are on our shortlist if DC2 is a girl. DH loves Penelope. We already have Felicity. You can borrow her if you like!

MollyHuaCha · 27/01/2018 22:38

Fern - nice
Florence - lovely
Penelope - lovely
Delilah - no
Robyn - no

AnyaMoondial · 27/01/2018 23:00

Robyn! It's awesome Smile

LarkDescending · 27/01/2018 23:13

I love Florence with Daisy.

glitterbiscuits · 27/01/2018 23:13

Florence is best

People may assume Robyn is a boy despite the spelling.

Don’t use Delilah as Daisy and Delilah together sound like a pair of prize winning cows.

SuperBeagle · 28/01/2018 08:49

Love Florence.

Like Penelope.

Don't mind Fern and Delilah.

Dislike Robyn.

The reason I'm put off Delilah is because it has negative connotations (Biblical, songs etc) and has a negative meaning ("delicate, weak, languishing").

Mumzywumzy2 · 28/01/2018 08:53

Oh I didn’t realise superbeagle... that’s Delilah out then. It was the bottom of the list anyway.

Do you like Dahlia, Delphi, Daphne or Lila? Somewhat similar to Delilah but without the connotations. Smile
