This is quite a tough decision for me and DW right now for DD1 - her two big bros are George and David. Which do people prefer on here? Thanks Smile

Anna! Love it

Spied · 14/07/2020 12:03

Like Laura but love Anna.

Doyoumind · 14/07/2020 12:05

Laura.

I love the name Anna

Waiting42021 · 14/07/2020 12:38

Anna. It’s beautiful!

AnnieMaul · 14/07/2020 12:51

I prefer Laura!

Anappleaday1 · 14/07/2020 12:52

Anna

SquigglePigs · 14/07/2020 12:53

Both are nice and would work with the brothers but love Anna.

worstwitch18 · 14/07/2020 12:54

Both really nice names in my opinion. Not helpful, I know!

Laura

daisypond · 14/07/2020 13:28

Anna. I like Laura, though.

backin199one · 14/07/2020 14:08

Anna is more classic and timeless to me, and I prefer it over Laura anyway.

AnotherBiteMe · 14/07/2020 15:36

Another vote for Anna. Really don't like the name Laura.

Anna is lovely.
Laura is nice enough.

Onestepup · 14/07/2020 16:01

Anna

VenusClapTrap · 14/07/2020 16:20

Quite a lot of little Annas around. Laura would be more unusual for her generation.

BatleyTownswomensGuild · 14/07/2020 17:17

Anna - an under-used classic

FawnDrench · 14/07/2020 17:57

Laura

LiviLoggo · 14/07/2020 18:42

I love Anna - but may be slightly biased! Laura is pretty too but maybe slightly too old-fashioned but in my opinion is better than the common Lauren. George and David are both lovely names and fit very well with Anna.

123Dancewithme · 14/07/2020 23:29

Anna is lovely!

DramaAlpaca · 15/07/2020 00:18

I love both, two of my favourite names. Both go with your sons' names.

I'd probably go for Laura as it's more unusual these days.

sel2223 · 15/07/2020 00:28

Both lovely names OP

MaryLisbon · 15/07/2020 00:31

I prefer Laura. Anna's a bit too popular

CuppaZa · 15/07/2020 00:32

Anna. I can’t stand Laura
