Frances then Eva, not keen on Lola.

pinkpanther84 · 25/08/2019 21:17

Lola or Eva, both really pretty.

Holmes19 · 25/08/2019 21:17

Eva

DamnitCharlie · 25/08/2019 21:19

I like Frances, Eva and similar names like Evie are really popular now which puts me off. Don't like Lola because it makes me think of the showgirl song but as always with names it's what you want and soon enough people forget any prior connotations.

Frances
Frances
Frances

Not popular but not 'out there', classic, suits all ages and has good choice of diminutives.

Strongecoffeeismydrug · 25/08/2019 21:23

I would say Lola as I have one 😊

delusionalnights · 25/08/2019 21:23

@notso What diminutives can be used?

Frances definitely. Not keen on Lola particularly. Eva is so so.

formerbabe · 25/08/2019 21:27

Frances sounds frumpy to me..
Lola is nice but a bit gimmicky and will date.

Love Eva

Frances.

Eva Braun (Hitlers wife)

Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl, with yellow feathers in her hair and a dress came down to there ...

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 25/08/2019 21:28

Frances, but I don’t like Frankie, so Eva.
I can’t abide Lola.

AlwaysOnAbloodyDiet · 25/08/2019 21:32

Eva

Boiledeggandtoast · 25/08/2019 21:32

I had 3 boys, but Frances was the name I would have called a daughter.

joystir59 · 25/08/2019 21:35

Eva is lovely. Classy and simple. Frances is not old fashioned enough. Lola- I know several dogs called Lola.

Isthebigwomanhere · 25/08/2019 21:35

Frances. Suits all ages. Classic but not old fashioned. Strong yet feminine.
It's a beautiful name

CoolCarrie · 25/08/2019 21:35

Lola is awful, makes me think of a stripper! Frances is classy and timeless.

MondeoFan · 25/08/2019 21:35

Frances is awful as is Fran.
I had a friend whose middle name was Frances and she used to be embarrassed to tell people.
I like Eva which is better than the more common used Ava.
Lola is just no.

Snakedoctor · 25/08/2019 21:36

I have an 8 year old Eva, and although it's meant to be a really popular name we have only come across one other, we live in a largish town and attend a 3 class intake primary. I love the name just as much now as I did when she was born.

Redspider1 · 25/08/2019 21:38

Francesca? Then you can call her Cesca for short. Not keen on Fran.

Lobsterquadrille2 · 25/08/2019 21:39

Frances is lovely; elegant, uncommon and sophisticated while Frankie is cute. Too many Evas/Evies/Avas and personally don't take the name Lola seriously.

Redspider1 · 25/08/2019 21:39

Frances is my middle name.
I like it.
