Hi I could really use some help finding a name for our daughter. I was so sure she was a boy that I didn't even consider a girls name and I can't convert the one I had chosen (Joshua).

We have only one rule in that both families have to be able to say the name. So any names with a 'th' are out as Germans don't make that sound. Also our too boys have classical biblical names so something that would fit in with that.

The names I had considered were:
Marie
Bonnie
Eleonore (German version of Eleanor)
Annika
Maeve

But to be honest me and my family are completely stumped. I really don't want to come up with a name after she is born as I did that with ds2 and actually regretted it but it's too late to change it now. Please help
