Due to have DD in 3 weeks and thought we had settled on a name but now I've really gone off it and have no other ideas.

Name we had chosen was Jasmine Emily

But I've gone off Jasmine now. And not sure on Emily as a first name. I like the 'e' sound at the end, but would prefer something a bit less popular, but still a "normal" name.

But I can't think of any other options.

Names I like but can't use are
Zoe
Ava
Abbie
Sophie
Charlotte (lottie)
Amy
Jessica (Jessie)
Leah
Chloe

Please help with any ideas/suggestions!!

Id wait and see what she looks like. You just dont know how youre going feel until you meet her.

there is no rush. you do not have to greet the child by name as soon as she emerges... what does your husband think. it's his child too. why not ask him to choose. you could have veto. or ask your mother. again with parents' veto reserved. don't worry. you dont even have to put a name when you register the birth, just the fact of it. there is a time period during which you can go back to add the name. all the best.

Emmeline could be a more unusual version of Emily?

I have two DDs from your list. Others considered were Lara/ Danielle/a/Maya

EhUp · 21/07/2020 15:04

I think Jasmine is lovely. Emily is nice but there are already too many in existence so I wouldn't use it.
