What’s my name?

Baby girl. Over 9lb, dark hair and seems quite chilled (and hungry).

Sister’s name is Philippa

Eleanor is an option for a middle name, but not set.

Husband likes Heather, Millie.

I don’t have a clue!! Can anyone help name our daughter?

@MissHenty I will let you know!

Im happy with slightly less traditional names. A boy would’ve been Finlay.

We have lots of family with the suggested names- which is proving difficult!

I just keep looking at her and feeling bad as I don’t know who she is.

Do not feel bad that a name isn’t jumping out. It never has for me. Infact the name we picked for my son actually doesn’t suit him even 3 years later. I feel bad but he was just a baby I had no idea what his personality would be like. Just pick a name you like and also remind yourself there is no “perfect” name

Susannah would go brilliantly with Philippa

Jemima

I think because Philippa is a strong sounding name, another strong sounding first letter name goes well together
