After narrowing our list down we have come to 3 names we agree on by can’t decide on which to go for . I am struggling with them all for different reasons and none feel quite right. What do you all think of the following ?

Elizabeth
Alexandra
Catherine

Any other names along those lines that we may like?

I guess picking one out of a hat is a good idea. It will tell us how we really feel about the name too. Thanks everyone . Some new names to ponder.

Alexandra!! Fabulous strong names in its own right with lots of nickname options. My daughter is an Alexandra, yet to meet any others at baby/toddler groups!

Bonnie
Bernadette
Tilly

Have always loved Catherine. Strong and pretty and classic and timeless kind of name. Lots of nn potential but the most likely to be used in full also.
Also Elizabeth.
Alexandra I like but it is by far the most likely never to be used in full and always shortened. Not a problem in itself.
Congrats.

Alexandra because there are so many good nicknames.

I like them all! Good choices.

Sophronia · 31/08/2019 11:51

Catherine Jennifer sounds good.

TidyDancer · 31/08/2019 14:38

All your names are lovely but Alexandra is the most beautiful I think.

lljkk · 31/08/2019 14:53

Probably Catherine is my most fave name ever.

BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz · 31/08/2019 14:54

Alexandra of your list. I like Catherine but prefer the Kathryn spelling.

Smile19 · 31/08/2019 17:26

All lovely OP. Great choices. Can't do wrong.

BrokenHeartedAndBruised · 31/08/2019 20:54

Elizabeth but all three are nice

emilybrontescorsett · 01/09/2019 22:14

I like them all.

KronksSpinachPuffs · 01/09/2019 23:14

Alexandra is my favourite out of those 3!

Alex doesn't have to be her nn necessarily, you could go for Al, Als, Ally, Alex, Alexa, Lex, Lexa, Lexi (although Lexi is defo not my fave!)
