Can't decide between names!

So far we've got:
Florence
Clara
Ruby
Amelia (I also like Emilia but partner isn't keen on this)

Thoughts?

Just see what one she suits. It's not obligatory to have a name decided before birth.

Clara is pretty and would be by far the least popular in our area (south London). Good luck!

Donotbequotingmeinbold · 29/03/2018 14:01

I like Ruby.

Sadie82 · 29/03/2018 14:03

I like Clara, pretty and not used much....good luck xx

My favourites are Clara and Florence, but I agree; wait and see what she looks like. Babies often arrive with their names written all over their faces!

I love Florence and Clara. Hate the other two.

ReversingSnail · 29/03/2018 14:31

Florence Amelia.

chezmk1988 · 29/03/2018 14:31

Only one I like is Amelia but it is really common now. Prefer the Emilia spelling

windchimesabotage · 29/03/2018 14:31

They are all beautiful but I suggest having a look at how popular they are. Amelia has been I think, number 1 for the past two years and is predicted to be high this year, so lots and lots of girls at your childs school may be called that.

I think Florence was also top fifty but not top ten.

Ruby has been in the top hundred for quite a while I think.

My personal favourite is Clara and I think its the least used so will seem special.

Clara Ruby

missmouse101 · 29/03/2018 14:32

Yes, Clara Florence Leigh is adorable!

Petalflowers · 29/03/2018 14:33

I agree, it’s not obligatory to name the baby before they are born.

Clara and Florence are my preferred favourites out of the list.

Other similar names?
Freya,
Martha
Eliza
Emily

All good, Clara my favourite.

INeedNewShoes · 29/03/2018 14:39

When you see your DD the chances are that one of those names will just seem to fit best. I had a list of 6 girls and boys names and when DAD turned up only 2 of the 6 names didn't seem ridiculous for her.

TatianaLarina · 29/03/2018 14:49

Clara.

Ruby is a bit 1940s northern hooker.

ChocolateCrunch · 29/03/2018 15:16

Clara, definitely

linz0308 · 29/03/2018 15:21

Clara is beautiful

littlebillie · 29/03/2018 15:23

Klara even the comment on Ruby Grin

Eryri1981 · 29/03/2018 15:31

Ask the midwife... When the midwife replied with "oh, we've had lots of girls named X recently" I was able to reduce my short list from 3 to 2.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 29/03/2018 18:00

I like Ruby.
