So we have a 2 week old lg and still have no name but have shortlisted it to the following and I will literally just go with whichever gets the most votes Hmm

  1. Miley / Mylee
  2. Elissa
  3. Marnie
  4. Elsie

Or any other better suggestion that resembles any of the above!
As much as I do appreciate other people’s opinions please can I just have if you had to pick one Smile

Marnie, Elissa or Elsie are all lovely.

Agree also that Melissa or Elise are pretty variations.

BettyBoo246 · 16/11/2018 16:56

Wow poor Miley is really not rated then Grin
So 26 votes for Marnie, 19 for Elsie and 13 for Elissa. I’ve just told dh we’ll go for Marnie then, his response I like Miley best AngryConfused

Is it too late to say elsie?

GiGi18 · 16/11/2018 17:29

Marnie

Creepyexgirlfriend · 16/11/2018 17:35

Miley Cyrus is what I think when I hear that.

Elsie is best. It’s short for Elizabeth/Elspeth, so there’s those as well.

Cosmoa · 16/11/2018 17:40

@BettyBoo246 Go for Miley then! If Miley is a name you'd consider and you can decide, why not let your husband have the vote... Rather than loads of strangers who don't have any connection to your child. Mumsnet in general is a little close minded to be honest. I really wouldn't take your final say from a daft mumsnet poll. (no offense to you OP)

Cosmoa · 16/11/2018 17:42

I don't like Miley Cyrus but it is my favorite on your list. And Miley Cyrus got her name from being a smiley baby. She was originally names Destiny but her family nicknamed her Smiley Miley and it stuck. So I have always thought of it as a smiley name Smile

OrdinarySnowflake · 16/11/2018 17:47

If I'm not too late, is go with Elsie, and as PP said, with Elizabeth on the birth certificate.

But, is there one name you'd really hoped would be the top of the list?

yikesanotherbooboo · 16/11/2018 17:48

Marnie
Second best is Elsie

Sakura7 · 16/11/2018 17:51

Elissa. Also prefer Elise to Elsie

Normandy144 · 16/11/2018 17:54

Miley isn't a nice name imo. Elissa is nice but i prefer it spelt Alyssa.
I prefer Elise to Elsie which is a bit too old lady for me.
