Frances

Can have Fifi, Cissy, CeCe as nicknames etc x

Lola is short for Dolores- which translates to pain in English (dolor is pain in Spanish).

I like Eva. Have a couple of friends with the name and they are lovely.

Frances.

There are a million Eve, Eva, Evie, Ave clones.

Not a fan of Frances it is a bit too serious/dull for me. I prefer pretty names. Francesca is similar but imo prettier.
Eva is nice but very popular
My favourite of your choices is Lola

Not a fan of Frances, it's quite an ugly sound to my ear.
Eva is probably the best on the list although very popular.
I increasingly like Lola but I can't help singing Copacabana every time I see / hear it which does put me off slightly.

Well thanks!

Benjispruce · 25/08/2019 22:08

Sorry wrong baby name thread. Yawn.

SemperIdem · 25/08/2019 22:11

Frances - classic and unusual

DramaAlpaca · 25/08/2019 22:12

Eva is my favourite. I know it's popular but it's elegant, classy & international which is a good thing in my book.

Frances is just a bit, well, boring. And I dislike Fran & Frankie.

Lola is OK, but it's a bit on the twee side.

Cabezona · 25/08/2019 22:19

Lola is for strippers and dogs
Frances is a boys name isn't it?
Eva is classy and timeless Smile

Tillygetsit · 25/08/2019 22:30

My only bugbear with Frances is that I say Frarnces and OH says Fraaances. Would drive me potty.

user1493494961 · 25/08/2019 22:40

Frances or Eva, Lola is a stripper name.

BearRabbitPants · 25/08/2019 23:31

Lola. That was on our list for our DD (6 months old now Smile) it was only just pipped to the post by something equally lovely !

MrsBertBibby · 25/08/2019 23:43

Eva.

Frances is nice but dreadful nicknames.

Lola is a bit of a porn name. Or a dog.

Astronica · 25/08/2019 23:47

Frances is best, then Eva.

Frances nn Fanny - you've got to have posh balls to pull that one off but I know some who have.

AverageMummy · 26/08/2019 17:01

Frances - beautiful classy and rare
Eva - also beautiful but millions of Evie Ava Evelyn Eve etc etc - still lovely though
Lola - horrid

31RueCambon75001 · 26/08/2019 17:03

Frances or Eva

Lola is too flimsy and a bit of a porn name.

daisypond · 26/08/2019 17:17

Could you have picked three more different names!
Frances - elegant, classy, not common. Has the advantage of not ending in an E or A sound.
Eva - Ok. Very nice but a bit dull, popular these days.
Lola - twee and downmarket.

Cornishmum00 · 26/08/2019 17:23

Frances is old
lola is a dog
eva is nice
