Rose, Seb, and .....?

We’re choosing a name for our third born yesterday. Tiny dark haired sister to fair-haired Rose 3yo and Seb 1yo. We were thinking of Molly or Grace, but we’re worried Grace was too popular at the moment. We like classy timeless names, and think a one-syllable name would fit with Rose and Seb. What do you think? x

Just from your thread title, I thought Eliza. It's two syllables but I think it goes well with your other names. Congratulations!

Another vote for @Peachbubble suggestion - I think Nell is lovelySmile

Thanks guys! Such a great help :) Think it’s between Grace, Eliza, and Nancy

Grace is gorgeous. Yes it’s popular but there’s a reason for that and it’s actually been on a downward trajectory for years now so is getting less and less popular each year. No Grace’s at my sons nursery or playgroup (he’s under 3 so makes sense according to the ONS statistics)

I’ll give you a link to the graph OP showing the statistics

MissHenty · 27/10/2019 14:34

Massive downward trajectory for Grace since 2006!! Far less babies called grace now than 5-10 years ago

Eliza is my fave out of those 3

Tess!

Grace has actually gone from 41st to 10th so I think it will be quite popular with newborns at the moment.
I love the suggestion of Eliza

CileyMayRhinovirus · 27/10/2019 14:43

I love Grace. I'm probably definitely a bit of a chav just working class
