Help with baby girl names

So we have our boys name picked. However, we're struggling with girls names.
Some we like but can't settle on are -
Eleanor
Pheobe
Victoria
Elizabeth
Bethany
Juliette
Anastasia

Any suggestions would be a great help.
We have 2 children already Amelia, Harry.

I would strike off Bethany as it is not as classic as your other names and seems less strong than them. Would personally strike off Anastasia because I wouldn’t want the same initial as older dc (this might just be me!).

I think Juliet or Elizabeth sound best with your other names and are both beautiful.

mycatthinksshesatiger · 02/09/2018 21:58

Natasha goes well?
Tess/Tessa
Chloe
Lydia
Matilda (Tilly)
Lara
Esther
Sadie
Anya
Felicity
Maya
Susannah
Harriet

All lovely, just make sure you spell Phoebe correctly! The o comes before the e.

PenelopeThePufferfish · 02/09/2018 22:02

Eleanor- Lovely
Pheobe- not keen at all
Victoria- very classy
Elizabeth- very nice
Bethany- not keen but goes well with your other DC's names
Juliette- no
Anastasia- nice but don't think it goes with Harry

ReginaPhalange89 · 02/09/2018 22:12

I think most of the names on the list don't really sound right with Amelia and Harry, sorry! The only ones that sound right are Bethany or Phoebe, I think the others sound a bit old in comparison ?

Amelia, Harry & Jessica
Amelia, Harry & Lucy
Amelia, Harry & Emily
Amelia, Harry & Molly

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 02/09/2018 22:26

Amelia, Harry and Libby (Elizabeth).

VeraSwampDuck · 02/09/2018 22:29

I love Victoria.

Failingat40 · 02/09/2018 22:33

Im laughing at how people suggesting you call your dd Harriet if you already have a son called Harry. Confused

From your list of names I think Phoebe and Bethany are nicest but I also like Emily and Jessica.

LillyandLittleOnes · 02/09/2018 22:33

Thank you all so much!
Eleanor, Phoebe and Victoria are tied tbh
DP has decided he doesn't like Elizabeth now. eyeroll
I also like Aria as a guilty pleasure type of name.

Olive
Enela
Ondine
Joy

Eleanor is gorgeous and goes lovely with your other dc. You can't go wrong with Elizabeth or Juliette ( prefer Juliet though ).

Victoria is gorgeous but hate Vicky. Not keen on the others.

Florence
Willow
Harriet
Madeleine
Charlotte
Thea
Felicity
Rose

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 03/09/2018 09:48

Oops yes not Harriet if you have a Harry sorry missed that.

Sungura · 03/09/2018 10:10

The first four sound striking with your other two DC's names, but hubby doesn't like the fourth choice anymore, Maybe Eliza?

PenelopeThePufferfish · 03/09/2018 10:21

Eleanor is beautiful. Go with that.

PenelopeThePufferfish · 03/09/2018 10:22

I also love NN options Nell or Nora.

Icklepup · 03/09/2018 19:02

Eliza!

Quangot · 03/09/2018 21:19

I like them all Smile I think Victoria or Phoebe would go nicely with the sibling names. Victoria Phoebe, or Phoebe Victoria, work well too.

DC2018 · 03/09/2018 21:31

I like Eleanor and Juliet best. Aria is alao lovely but very popular now x

Lucy1103 · 03/09/2018 23:34

Eleanor is great x

moredoll · 04/09/2018 02:03

Another vote for Eleanor. Although I do like Elizabeth and most of its diminutives (Betty, Lisa, Eliza, Beth, not so keen on Bess or Libby).

LillyandLittleOnes · 07/09/2018 12:22

Thank you all for your input I will update you all when we finally decide what we go with! Xx
