I like both but Grace is classic and timeless.

I like both, but I prefer Grace, even though it seems to be popular. I don't think it's girly at all - it's a classic, elegant name.

I agree 100% with Dontdribble.
Dont call a child April unless they are born in that month.

I like both but if I had to choose probably Grace x

both are fine. April is great, I don't think need to be born then any more than James needs to have a limp.

April. Beautiful name.

April is lovely. Grace is ok

KiplingAngelCake · 12/07/2018 13:26

Both. Slightly prefer Grace, but April is fab too.

Grace

I love both of them but April just a tad more as it is less popular. I don't agree that she should be born in April if their name is April. My grandmother is called June and her birthday is January

April... pretty name. wasn't there an April on Dallas?!?

Grace is lovely so long as child is graceful.

MikeUniformMike · 12/07/2018 14:57

There was. And an Afton.

MikeUniformMike · 12/07/2018 14:59

Just googled them. The 1980s hair!

LucyFox · 12/07/2018 16:30

April Grace would be lovely :)

NanooCov · 12/07/2018 20:27

I love them both but would only use April if born in that month.

BoyInTheOven · 12/07/2018 20:58

I think April is lovely. I feel like as a name it transcends the 'born in April expectation' which I think would be a bit naff personally.

For me 'Grace' has been overused and although a beautiful name a bit predictable these days IMO

Hate April. So dowdy.

Grace is much more elegant.
