...what is your girl's shortlist? Wondering if we can get a sense for next year's patterns :)

Nancy
Eleanor
Annabel
Meredith
Romilly
Elspeth
Delaney
Mathilda

Not a ‘serious’ list as such. Just been adding to it as I hear a name I like. Will go through and sort out properly closer to the time (due in May)

17caterpillars1mouse · 14/11/2018 08:29

Elspeth or Enid

LorelaiGilmore1 · 14/11/2018 08:35

Harriet
Holly
Matilda

Think we are decided on Harriet though, I was due yesterday!!

Greggers2017 · 14/11/2018 08:36

Lyla for a girl we've already decided.

Madeline88 · 14/11/2018 08:37

Annabelle and Matilda on mine too! Also Genevieve and Mabel Rose.

Have a weird like for Augusta which may be too unusual and a weird like for Isabella which is too popular!

L0kiWh0 · 14/11/2018 09:31

Only name I like is Iris but as our surname is Lewis I can’t have it 😫

AliCanTea · 14/11/2018 12:10

L0ki I have a similar problem!

Baby is a boy though according to scans, so I’m keeping these in my back pocket in case of a surprise girl!

The only name that’s been on my mind is Priyanka, but I doubt that’s on many people’s lists!

Cliffordthebigreddog · 14/11/2018 20:25

Our favourite is Jemimah or Jemima but haven’t decided on best spelling yet! Our daughter is 21 months old and her middle name is Mabel - we wish we hadn’t used it as we’d love to use it as baby no 2 name!

Jemimah / Jemima
Minnie
Tabitha
Olive
Joy
Kitty
Elsie
Betty
Betsy
Dotty
Beatrice (Bea)

These are out as DH doesn’t like them (but I do!)

Martha
Iris
Ivy

All quite boring compared to other people’s!

Isla
Isabella
Amelie
Seren
Grace

Dorabean · 14/11/2018 21:39

ZebraKid71 · 14/11/2018 22:04
