I like Hallie best - different but not strange!

Busymummy34 · 04/03/2018 21:24

Maisie

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 04/03/2018 21:25

Olivia. I know it's overused but it's gorgeous. Feminine pretty elegant classy and suits everyone stage of life.

ALso you can't be bothered by popularity otherwise it wouldn't be on your short list.

Ivy.
Zoe is nice but not Zoey

mumgointhroughtorture · 04/03/2018 21:38

Hallie or Ivy.
Maisie is too little girl imo

MiniAlphaBravo · 04/03/2018 21:40

Lucy.

It’s really underused, pretty and classic. Love it.

SeamLess · 04/03/2018 21:40

Ivy

DramaAlpaca · 04/03/2018 21:40

Lucy

Ivy and Zoey

Please do not be offended, but I am used to 'Zoey' being spelt 'Zoe' as it is Greek so the 'e' is sounded as in Aphrodite, Hercules, Persephone. I think part of its beauty is the ancient greek root and the lovely sound being made by just 3 letters.

PelvicFloorClenchReminder · 04/03/2018 21:43

Chloe or Zoey (I prefer Zoey with the y)

ChocolateCrunch · 04/03/2018 21:50

NannyR · 04/03/2018 21:56

Lucy or Zoe (much prefer it without the y)

T00much · 04/03/2018 22:01

Zoey

steamcomingoutofmyears22 · 04/03/2018 22:05

Lucy, Maisy, Zoe in that order (and those spellings, sorry!!)

The only awful one on your list is Khloe, apart from that all pretty choices.

TooManyMiles · 04/03/2018 22:08

Zoe is very well known classical name which is not really spelt with a Y, though anyone can spell any name the way they want.

Most people do not spell it with a Y as this list of others with the name shows. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoe_(name)

Ivy

AnyaMoondial · 04/03/2018 22:38

Lucy. It's brill.
