Would love to hear as everyone has very different taste!

I have a Lola and an Isabella. Although I love the names, both times it was a choice between that and calista/kalia which I love enough several years down the line to question if I made the right decision 😬.

We already have an Alice and I'm pregnant again and think we're going to go with Imogen.

Savannah. I just think it's beautiful and suits all ages but DH not keen

We're going with Thea if it's a girl 💕

Lessstressedhemum · 17/07/2019 21:10

Grainne, Alathea, Mab. All three vetoed by dh, sadly.

Prudence.

Ooh Penelope is a great shout - I love Penny as a nickname. Also criminal minds character association is another plus!

I love Peggy too and recently heard it used to be a nickname for Margaret?! Which for political reasons my family would be VERY unhappy with 😂

But Peggy is gorgeous and a lovely first name without needing a longer version I think. Makes me think fondly of Peggy Patch Smile

Clementine, Matilda and Genevieve (but pronounced John-vee-airve)

I can't believe no-one has said that yet!

Sasha, Fern, Emerald, Lowri!

Jellystars · 17/07/2019 21:53

Daisy but my DP doesn’t like it.

MrsSiriusBlack1 · 17/07/2019 21:55

Emilia

monsieurmarius · 17/07/2019 22:02

Also Emilia for me bizarrely! Picked it out 15 years ago as a kid and it's never changed

Sophie/Sophia.

Perfect name. Strong, elegant, great meaning, easy to pronounce and spell, travels well.

I have a dd and she is called something else, which I also love. Partly because Sophie/Sophia are deservedly so popular. But partly because what we ended up calling her was just so right.

missmouse101 · 17/07/2019 22:10

The 'mealy' sound in names is awful though! (Emilia etc)

Talith · 17/07/2019 22:10

Jacqueline. Sylvia. Gloria.
