Alice. Then Clara

Sexnotgender · 14/01/2019 20:17

Love Clara, not wild about Lyra (I always read it as Lycra!)

I’m 39+2 with a boy but our girl list was:

Eleanor
Penelope
Harriet
Frances

UrsulaPandress · 14/01/2019 20:19

Clara.

FlagFish · 14/01/2019 20:19

I like all these but Clara is my favourite.

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 14/01/2019 20:20

Lovely names, Clara is my favourite.

As 2 of your 4 are my daughters’ names I’m biased! Great choices.

Love love love Alice and Clara.
Unfortunately I had used Alice on my dog and guinea pig, and DH wouldn’t let me use it for a child as well.
He also vetoed Clara.
Such a shame, they are beautiful, timeless names.

Hi Bean, have PMed

SuperstarDJ · 15/01/2019 21:51

I really like Clara. Really dislike Lyra.

DramaAlpaca · 15/01/2019 21:54

Clara or Alice go very well.

Lyra is pretty but a very different style to Madeleine.

wizzler · 15/01/2019 21:56

I have a Madeleine.
If I had another DD she would be Martha

comebacksoonsusan · 15/01/2019 22:01

Clara

Giraffetower · 15/01/2019 22:08

Clara. That was on my list, too. Beautiful name.

I really irrationally dislike Alice. Mainly because every Alice I have ever met has been a grade A bitch.

Esme, Helena, Audrey, Verity, Francesca, Trinity
