Your girls' names are lovely. I don't like Cassia....reminds me of Casio the calculator brand...also, will be mistaken for Cassie.

I do LOVE Margot...it's beautiful and classic. Bonnie not so much as I've met a lot of small dogs with that name. Claudia is nice but sounds hard somehow. India is a bit old hat and not in a good way and I prefer Rose to Rosalie.

Love Claudia.
Have you thought of Rosalind ? I think that goes with her siblings names.

Mintypea5 · 14/07/2019 10:22

Claudia is my favourite. DH vetoed it for us but I think it's so pretty

CakeRattleandRoll · 14/07/2019 10:25

Margot, Claudia and Rosalie all work really well. Although I second PP's suggestion of Rosalind.

CaptSkippy · 14/07/2019 10:26

I like Bonnie and Margot

IggyAce · 14/07/2019 10:31

Rosalie gets my vote, I suggested it for dc2 but had a ds, so I never got to use it.

I don't actually like Rosalind / Rosamund, it's the Roz sound

Margot seems to be having quite a surge atm. Bonnie is alright for a kid but is a bit cutesy for an adult. Rosalie does not sound good with my accent and still produces a Roz sound to my ears.

Also bc we do actually use Bonnie/bonnie up here to describe something pretty I feel the same way about it as I do virtue names. Like calling a child Patience and her being rather the opposite. Ofc I am sure your DD will be gorgeous!

Ellmau · 14/07/2019 11:32

Claudia.

Ellmau · 14/07/2019 11:32

Bonnie sounds like a dog's name to me.

mintich · 14/07/2019 11:33

Margot and Claudia for me!

RickOShay · 14/07/2019 11:33

Love Margot.
Like Rosalie, but prefer Rosa.

Pinktinker · 14/07/2019 11:35

Claudia or Margot.

Stillabitemo · 14/07/2019 11:37

Rosalie or Claudia. I don’t think Bonnie or Margot really go with your other names!

Peachbubble · 14/07/2019 12:04

Rosalie, Cassia or India

Sophronia · 14/07/2019 12:45

Claudia

SnowdropFox · 14/07/2019 12:48

Claudia! I know a 3 yo one and it's just SO sweet on her.

carmenbea · 14/07/2019 13:06

Claudia or Cassia

comingupsouth · 14/07/2019 14:11

The Claudia I know is incredibly stylish and very bright.
She's one of the people I wish I was, if that makes sense?

unicornsprinklesss · 14/07/2019 14:58

Ok I think it's down to
Claudia
Rosalie
India

Frith2013 · 14/07/2019 16:01

Rosalie - cup of tea. Rosalind? Rosamund?
India - no
Cassia - it looks like you’ve shortened another name like Cassandra or Cassiopeia.
Claudia - ok
Bonnie - ok for a horse or dog
Margot - no

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 14/07/2019 17:45

Claudia.
