Which is nicest out of those 3 names? I also like Aurora, Pixie and Wren

My favourite is Florence but it’s just too popular Sad

I quite like Bluebell.

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 28/02/2018 19:12

Sorry I'm not keen on the first three. Effie is dreadful and the other two are names of cats.

I love Aurora. Just use Florence! It's beautiful.

villainousbroodmare · 28/02/2018 19:12

Oh please do go with Florence! I'd hesitate to foist above list on three sucking calves. Sorry.

Florence is the nicest by far. I don't think it's that popular if you look at the statistics.

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 28/02/2018 19:16

Grin villain. I think they'd be perfect for 3 baby calves Grin

OutyMcOutface · 28/02/2018 19:17

Florence is the best. Wren comes in at second imo

MargotLovedTom1 · 28/02/2018 19:17

Why on earth would anyone think Effie is a pleasant name? All I see and hear is effing, and I'm sure teenagers will be the same. Bluebell and Blossom aren't much better.

17caterpillars1mouse · 28/02/2018 19:18

I love Florence too but it is just too popular

From your list I like Effie best. It's a lovely name and I imagine a strong-Willie's, fleshy girl

Blossom, Bluebell and Pixie are just too cutesy. Plus I know a little Pixie and she is in no way dainty. It seems really silly on her.

Wren is ok but i think it sounds a little harsh

Aurora seems overly frilly to me and I've met 3 of them and felt like none of them suited it

Arapaima · 28/02/2018 19:18

I like Florence (it’s not that popular? I only know one) and Aurora.

quinqin · 28/02/2018 19:18

I like Effie from your list, i think Bluebell could be cute as a middle name x

chezmk1988 · 28/02/2018 19:18

Don't like any. Much prefer Aurora and Wren

Arapaima · 28/02/2018 19:19

Strong-Willies??

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 28/02/2018 19:21

Awwwww. I'm wanting triplet calves now.
Imagine the cuteness.

I don't really like any from your list aside from Aurora. Florence is okay.
Aurora Florence would be sweet.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 28/02/2018 19:21

Bluebell is the name of ginger spice's daughter, so hopefully that will put you off. Florence is lovely. Effie just makes me think of Mrs Doubtfire "Effie, brace yourself"

MargotLovedTom1 · 28/02/2018 19:23

'...a strong willies, fleshy girl.' How nice! Grin

MargotLovedTom1 · 28/02/2018 19:23

Strong willed and feisty I hope.

selftitledalbum · 28/02/2018 19:23

Awful

selftitledalbum · 28/02/2018 19:24

What grown adult wants to be called bluebell?

Allthebestnamesareused · 28/02/2018 19:24

A strong Willie's fleshy girl?? Wtf Grin

crackerjacket · 28/02/2018 19:24

Effie just screams below stairs.

crackerjacket · 28/02/2018 19:24

Aurora?

Too Virginia Andrews.

BeverlyHillsBillie · 28/02/2018 19:24

The only one I really like is Wren. Blubell is quite nice.

Effie is awful.

SallyDog · 28/02/2018 19:25

Florence! I don't know a single one Confused

FreeNiki · 28/02/2018 19:27

Effie Trinket from the hunger games.

Love Florence
