Etta, April, Olive, Nancy or Pearl

[Sheshallbenameless1]

C-section tomorrow and still no idea on what this little lady’s name is.

What’s your vote?

Thanks in advance 😊

I don't like any of the names apart from April. It's lovely, it won't date, and will be perfectly fitting as she's going to be born in April. I was also born in April and I always kinda wished it was my name

Good luck tomorrow! xx

April is my favourite. Nancy 2nd.

I really love April.

I might cringe if I heard someone call out Etta in the park...

Pearl is too 'trying to be cool' maybe?!

Olive is quite nice.

And not Nancy.

I like the Welsh spelling, Nansi

Like Etta and April too

Choose Nancy!

Best of luck tomorrow

Nancy or April.

I REALLY dislike Olive and Pearl - they’re really fuddy-duddy sounding. Olive reminds me of sludge green and Pearl just sounds a bit wet.

I’m ambivalent about Etta, but I do think it’s very harsh-sounding and at the same time insubstantial.

Really don't like April; I'm surprised to see how many people do. I think it's really twee, like calling a child born at Christmas time 'Holly'. I always mentally say 'fool' whenever I hear the name too

Olive and Pearl sound old-lady-ish in a bad way. Olive especially as it reminds me of the very plain Olive from on the buses.

I like Nancy.

I really like Etta too, but would prefer it as a nn for Henrietta.

Nancy or Etta

April is my favourite. Really don't like Olive, but maybe that's because I'm older and associate it with old ladies who look like Les Dawson in drag.

Nancy is my favourite.

Also like Etta and Pearl.

April is ok.

Don't like Olive at all. I think as mentioned up-thread it's a bit of a marmite name!

Nancy or Pearl

How about Ettaline?

How’s it going @Sheshallbenameless1 ? Please update us when you’re able. Fully appreciate it won’t be a priority but would love to know what you pick
(Ps. Pick Olive ❤️!!)

Sorry but Olive has to be one of the ugliest name I've ever come across I just can't understand why people would use it given so many great names available.

I like Etta but it feels like a nickname as short for Harriet or Henrietta

Pearl is ok

Nancy is quite cute

April is probably my favourite but I'm not so keen on naming a child April that is born in April, seems a bit cheesy to me.

Nancy

Nancy or Etta. (Possibly as nn for Henrietta)

I love April, so gorgeous and unusual. Pearl and Etta also lovely. Nancy is ok but I really dont like Olive. To me it reminds me of slimy greasy olives or olive oil.
I know a baby Olive though and its perfectly fine as a name but isn't a patch on your other names.

Love Nancy or Etta :) x

Nancy. The others are ok, apart from Olive which is almost comically awful. Definitely Nancy.

April!
Not cheesy. It's not as plentifully used as eg Holly. Bit 50s/60s retro cool vibe to it.
Nancy is cute/cool/adaptable too. Ann, going by Nancy.

Olive, Etta and Pearl are somewhat bit try-hard.

Pearl. So pretty.

Love Nancy and Etta, ambivalent towards April (but seems a bit too twee to give it to an April baby...much like baby girls being called Holly. if they happen to be born around Christmas 😑) Actually dislike Olive and Pearl (Olive just reminds me of On The Buses, and Pearl is just old lady with a bag of knitting 🧶 👵 )

Regardless, good luck today, hope everything goes well xx

Good luck for today, hope everything goes well. No matter what any of us think, you'll find the perfect name for her
