Hi, expecting DD2 in December. First DD is Neve.
Names I like include;
Alba
Jess
Meredith
Orla
Maggie
Elodie
Penelope (Nel)
What other names might I like? DH isn’t wild about any of them but might be persuaded. Alba is my absolute favourite but I want him to love a name too! Thanks.

Nice names OP. I am really loving the name Margaret at the moment, think it’s v elegant.

Alice?
Arianna?
Clara?

WRT Alba, have you read the house of the spirits by Isabella Allende? In it there are 4 generations of women all called names that mean “white”. Alba is one of them, and the others are Clara, Nivea and something else I can’t remember, but I think Neve means white too? So you could make the case for Alba as a matching name for DD1?

I don’t know how to tag people but thank you. Actually meant to have Alice and Noa on there so definitely right tracks. Yes re the white theme, interestingly the Spanish translation for Alba is my name. So double winner.

It’s a sign. And it’s a beautiful name. Go for Alba

Orla was too of my list until I realised it autocorrects to 'Oral'.
It's a beautiful name though, so I'm still considering it.

Elodie is another on my list, so those two are my favourite.
