Currently pregnant with baby no 4 (and my last I think) and it's my first pregnancy where I can't find a name I love.

I'm currently 34 weeks - we've known it's a girl for a while now and starting to stress! My DC names are:
DD1 - Ivy (this was easy to pick as it's the name I've had my heart set on since I was 13!)
DS2 - Tommy
DS3 - Brodie

I like names that end in a y or ie, 2 syllables - unique but not too unsual (yes I'm aware Tommy isn't unique but I just adore the name!)

Middle name will probably be Elle or Rose. Here are the names on my list so far (none of them have fallen into place though)
Macy - I love this name but DH isn't keen
Elsie - really like but something's stopping me
Sadie - DH suggested and I weren't sure at first but it's grown on me
Hettie

When I was pregnant with DS2, before we knew he was a boy I considered Annie and Zoë but I haven't quite clicked with them.

Thank you!

Ellianna x

My DD is Macy, love the name but I have the issue of most people getting it wrong and calling her Maisie. Drives me insane. So just something to think about!

I like Sadie, or maybe Zadie?

Dulcie, Tulsi, Tansy, Mamie, Marnie, Georgie, Betsy, Bessie, Audrey, Hattie, Stacey, Lacey, Cassie, Penny, Ettie, Lottie. I know some aren't really unusual. Trying to think of more for you.

Lucy?

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 02/07/2019 12:04

You can hardly have Elsie Elle.
Elsie Rose is good, though.
I don't think many first names go with Elle as a middle name, though.
Zoe Elle could work. Annie Rose is gorgeous.
Other ideas.
Molly Rose. Amy Rose. Katie Rose.
Polly Rose. Nancy Rosie. Tilly Rose.
Lily Rose. Emily Rose.
Hannah Rose. Martha Rose. (You might want to keep with the ee ending sound, though.

@WakeUpFromYourDreamAndScream
I never thought of that! I adore the name though

Sadie

MimiSunshine · 02/07/2019 16:17

I really like Sadie, I think it works well and is a great name.
I also like that you’d have two ie’s and two y’s

BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz · 02/07/2019 16:19

I like Sadie from your list.

I quite like that actually but I wouldn't use it - reminds me of Effy from Skins!
