Lula/Loula is my favourite, so I'll go with Isla, which is lovely.
Sorry, I'm not a fan of Lola and Iris.

MammieBear · 18/03/2018 19:43

Iris again here, it's just lovely and the meaning is just wonderful second to that would be a Lula quite a whimsical name...

Redpramlady · 18/03/2018 20:55

I like them on the order you listed originally
Iris is my fav

TenThousandSpoons · 18/03/2018 21:20

Isla - favourite by a long way
Lola - ok (but has “she was a showgirl...” connotations)
Iris - ok
Lula - awful
Luna - pretty

Dontrocktheboat · 18/03/2018 21:25

Iris - lovely
Isla - also lovely (biased) but very popular now
Lula - sounds like a nickname. Not as nice as others.
Lola - don't like much, unfortunate Lolita connotations (though I do quite like Charlie and Lola...)

greenfluffysocks · 18/03/2018 21:30

actually my DN is called Lola and she's gorgeous can't believe some people judge babies off of there names! All these names are lovely, and I'm sure your child would grow up gorgeous no matter the name! Awful bunch can't get over the rudeness! sorry just personal op , my potential DD/DS will be named a quirky name , and i'd hate for people to judge me on that Shock Sad Angry

Isla is beautiful! Babies make names their own in the end anyways! Congratulations

snop · 18/03/2018 21:53

Iris is lovely' only ever met one little girl with this name. Isla is also lovely but very popular where I live .

LRL2017 · 18/03/2018 21:55

Lola! But I am bias as that's my little girls name!

HairyToity · 18/03/2018 21:56

Isla is my favourite. Also like Iris. Don't like Lulu or Lola.

Marv1nGay3 · 18/03/2018 22:00

I know a Lula- her full name is Ursula, nn Lula. I think it is lovely in that context.

Dontrocktheboat · 18/03/2018 22:08

Op asked for opinions on the names - wanting, presumably, honest opinions otherwise pretty pointless. Don't think anyone has been rude about any of these names but it is helpful to know what kind of associations they throw up (otherwise very little point in the baby names board really!)

This is the baby names forum, the entire point of it is to critique/suggest names. No one is commenting on your niece or how gorgeous she is, that doesn't affect our view of the names in any way.

LoveInTokyo · 18/03/2018 22:38

Have you thought about Lila?

Littlemum2be86 · 19/03/2018 08:22

Iris definitely!

THirdEeye · 19/03/2018 10:43

Iris is the best by far (hadn’t realised it’s meaning until PP stated, so it’s even more beautiful now)

What about Ayla (can be prounounced A-lar or I-lar) as an alternative to Isla?

TheRedHatofPatFerrick · 19/03/2018 10:47

Isla - nice
Iris - ok

Don't really like the other 2.

flissfloss65 · 19/03/2018 10:50

Isla is beautiful.

Really dislike Iris, makes me think of inflamed eyes!!

DavetheCat2001 · 01/04/2018 20:12

Lola is by far the best.

Don't like Isla at all.

Not keen on Lula.

Iris is ok.

Thebirthdayparty · 01/04/2018 22:23

Iris is lovely.

Isla is nice too but so popular.
