Stuck on girls names...

Help!! Expecting baby in a few months and can't decide on a girls name. Have a long surname so can't have anything that's too much of a mouthful.
So far we like:

Evelyn
Charlotte (nn Lottie)
Lyra
Sophie

I love Anna and Lydia, but can't have them due to other family members. Any other suggestions are welcomed, thanks!

Elise
Erin
Lara
Iris
Polly

I love Lyra, do you like Lyla/Lila/Lilah? Not too keen on Evelyn, it seems quite dated, although Evie is very pretty imo. Charlotte and Sophie are lovely, classic, timeless names, although maybe a bit 'safe'. Good luck !

Ivy
Xanthe
Rory
Sailor
Astrid
April

Sailor?!?! Hmm

PlatypusLeague · 12/05/2019 12:42

Sailor is no worse than the other occupation names. Carter, Archer, Hunter, Piper, Mason etc.
