Heidi and Daisy are the best on your list.
Summer is my least favourite.

Millie, Chloe, Heidi and Summer are the ones I'd keep. Favourite would be Heidi.

I really like the name Summer. I'd cut it down to Summer, Elodie and Heidi. I do like Bella too but I think there are a lot of them!

FartnissEverbeans · 15/05/2020 12:39

I love Summer. I’ve taught thousands of kids, but never a Summer. Such a lovely joyful name.

BatleyTownswomensGuild · 15/05/2020 12:40

Noah and Heidi is gorgeous!

LemonBreeland · 15/05/2020 12:42

Adore Elodie and it is underused. A lot of your names are very popular which always puts me off them.

ButDoUAvocado · 15/05/2020 12:44

Love Summer and Heidi. The others are all really overused and boring. Well, Elodie isn’t boring and I like it but I do know a few now.

Chocolatecake12 · 15/05/2020 12:48

Heidi or Bella from your list.

Treaclepie19 · 15/05/2020 13:30

I love Elodie.

DramaAlpaca · 15/05/2020 13:32

Elodie or Chloe.

PissOffStayAtHomeDogMum · 15/05/2020 13:32

Lots of Elodies around at the moment, so I'd reject that one. Summer is a season, not a name, so I'd reject that one too (even though it's my favourite season).

Would probably also reject Chloe because there are too many "O" sounds in Noah and Chloe. And too many "a" sounds in No-ah and Bell-a.

Otherwise, all good!

Bubbletrouble43 · 15/05/2020 13:39

I'm still with Noah and Heidi x

summersun7 · 15/05/2020 14:25

So far Elodie, Heidi and Summer are the favourites.
Thank you everyone who has contributed so far. Any further comments would be really appreciated.

Elodie and Heidi for me!

user1493494961 · 15/05/2020 14:29

Amelia, shortened to Millie.

Spied · 15/05/2020 14:30

Heidi or Bella really stand out for me.

You can scrap the rest when you've got two of my fav's on your listGrin

mylittleavalon · 15/05/2020 14:31

Another for Elodie and Heidi

17caterpillars1mouse · 15/05/2020 14:44

I'll personally cut out Tilly and Bella straight away as they are nn only to me

My favourites on your list are Chloe (lovely name, popular but has a classical feel about it and I personally don't know any little Chloe's under age 10 despite having two young children)

Millie, though I would prefer it as a nn for Millicent but I just find it a lovely name

Summer is also a guilty pleasure, but I did once meet an adult Summer and it didn't suit her at all, and seemed a bit silly, so that does put me off a bit

summersun7 · 15/05/2020 14:51

17caterpillars1mouse Thank you for taking the time to explain your choices.
I think Millie is starting to steal my heart a little. So definitely feel its in the running. X
