Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Snap. Fav is Lucy, Emma is great too, dislike Cara.

Cara

Cara.

Emma

I like Emma best, then Lucy. I'm not as keen on Cara but I think it's probably the 'prettiest'.

Lucy

Cora and Clara are much prettier but of your list I’d say Lucy

beanaseireann · 15/08/2019 16:59

Cara means friend in Irish

Changedname81 · 15/08/2019 18:52

Lucy

Don’t care for the others

Cathyheathcliff · 15/08/2019 22:24

Lucy is my favourite

MikeUniformMike · 16/08/2019 18:29

I like all three, in the order OP lists them.

AltheaVestr1t · 16/08/2019 18:32

I think Emma and Lucy are very ordinary and common, sorry. I know so many Emmas and Lucys, both young and old. I don’t see the attraction of naming your DC the same name as millions of other people. Cara is a bit more interesting.

Cara.

They’re all pretty names I just think Emma and Lucy are a bit more commonplace so Cara would be my preference!

Krisskrosskiss · 19/08/2019 00:06

I like Lucy the best

LatteLove · 19/08/2019 00:27

I like them all but Lucy is my favourite, it’s always been my most favourite girls’ name even for my dolls. I couldn’t use it though so it’s just as well I had boys, I’d have been a bit gutted to have had a girl I couldn’t call Lucy.
