Flora and Rose are my favourites,.both beautiful.

Peachbubble · 25/03/2020 06:54

In order, Rose then Flora - classic names. Daphne possibly, but don't like the other two I'm afraid.

Mish85 · 25/03/2020 06:58

Flora and Rose favourites here too, followed by Daphne....Feminine, vintage feel, age well. Also love Dulcie for same reasons, I know it's not on your list but seems to have a similar feel. Not a fan of the other too sorry.

IceKitten · 25/03/2020 06:59

Rose is my favourite - gorgeous. Flora in second place.

I haven't heard of Delancy and I think of Devon as a boy's name (spelled differently).

Mmsnet101 · 25/03/2020 07:00

Flora and Rose. Daphne always either sounds like dafty or reminds me of scooby doo.

knightlight · 25/03/2020 07:06

Love Flora.

Flora and Rose by a mile 😍 Beautiful

IVflytrap · 25/03/2020 08:24

Daphne, followed by Rose. Both quite classic and vintage, and not too popular as first names.

MikeUniformMike · 25/03/2020 08:36

Flora.
Flowery without being frilly, easy to spell and say.
Daphne is a bit more unusual.
Rosie is pretty but Rose is overused as a middle name.

Like a pp, I haven't heard of Delancy and I think of Devon as a boy's name (spelled differently). Don't like either of them.

DoctorBambino · 25/03/2020 08:53

Flora, it makes me think of sunshine Smile then Rose, I don't like D names I think

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 25/03/2020 08:59

Delancy.

springrollover · 25/03/2020 09:08

What about Delaney

PinkyU · 25/03/2020 09:13

Delancy Devi/y/on makes me think of the barbie movie, Charm School.

Rose1000 · 25/03/2020 14:08

@PinkyU

I got to know Delancy on Princess charm school!!!
And I thought it's so pretty:)
Never thought anyone would know that movie 🤣

Rose. It's beautiful.

userabcname · 25/03/2020 14:14

Daphne. Pretty and unusual.

user1493494961 · 25/03/2020 14:27

Flora or Rose, ditch the 'D' names.

Flymetothestars · 25/03/2020 14:51

Not Daphne. Shortening will inevitably be Daphe and that just sounds like Daft to me

Love Flora and Rose

emmathedilemma · 25/03/2020 15:09

In the order you’ve written them.

TheVanguardSix · 25/03/2020 15:12

Daphne and Devyn are my favourites.

Have you considered Sybil or Pearl?

bonboncherrybon · 25/03/2020 15:20

Daphne and Flora are my top 2
I like Devon but not Devyn

WestCountryLady · 25/03/2020 15:24

Rose is beautiful, it's my dd middle name.

DramaAlpaca · 25/03/2020 15:41

Daphne is gorgeous, as is Rose. Flora is quite nice too. I don't like the others.

bridgetreilly · 25/03/2020 18:14

I love Daphne. Definitely due for a comeback. I also like Flora. Not at all keen on the others.
