4 days old and nameless!

My daughter is four days old and we still haven’t decided on a name. We have a few options, just not a favourite!

My husband’s favourite is Erin. How popular is this? I didn’t think it was, I’ve only known of one who would be in her 20s now. Since looking on here though it seems to get mentioned a lot.
He also likes Eliza. I like both of these and would happily call her either.

I like Alice and Nancy. Husband isn’t as keen on these but doesn’t mind them and would be happy with either.

I like them all and don’t have a favourite. I think if I had to choose one though I’d go with Nancy but only because I think it’s the most different but I could be wrong about that.

Family or friends say their favourite and that sort of sways me but then someone else will say something different so then I change my mind again. I’m hoping the opinions of mumsnet will help.

Also, we already have a Phoebe.

Thank you

Erin or Eliza

I know lots of little Alice's

Nancy always makes me think of the song Nancy Boy by Placebo

Phoebe and Erin sound good together.

Actually they all sound good with Phoebe.

Difficult! They're all lovely names (I'm not being even slightly helpful but thought would say so anyway)

Congratulations!

Eliza is lovely.

Erin is dull as dishwater.

Erin is my name so it gets my vote :-) I have met about 5 other Erins in my life, one in my primary school class. No really young ones, youngest maybe 5 years younger than me.

What do you think suits her most?

Maybe it’s a name not on your list...

(For the record I like Erin the most out of your shortlist)

Phoebe goes best with Erin or Alice. I don't think it goes with Nancy at all (if that is your concern).

By the way if you want to find out popularity and trends have a look at this website- names.darkgreener.com/

Congratulations as well!
