Currently expecting DC3 and think we are almost decided name for a boy.

However, girls names are proving more difficult. Please could I have your opinions on our shortlist for girls? Surname is a 2 syllable name beginning with W.

So far we have:

Talia (pronounced Tally-a)
Romilly
Jemima
Zinnia

Middle name ideas are Juliet or Eloise

Talia (pronounced Tally-a). I'd pronounce Tahl-ya
Romilly - makes me think of a war general
Jemima - lovely
Zinnia - not sure
Jemima Juliet is probably a bit too much.

Definitely Zinnia Juliet, very pretty, very different.

Zinnia Juliet Surname is very pretty.

Thanks all - it's really helpful to have some opinions. The naming game is just so difficult!

Talia (pronounced Tally-a) - lifetime of correcting from Tar-lia or t-lia and not pretty enough for the effort
Romilly - cute, different and can be nn to less cute
Jemima - fine, but yeah puddle duck
Zinnia - don't like the sound on my tongue

Middle name ideas are Juliet or Eloise

Jemima

Zinnia is fab!

Your middle names are my favourites! Eloise Juliet would be lovely. Or (tweaking) Louisa Juliet.

I like Jemima best from your main list.
