We are approaching our 20 week scan and intend to find out gender of baby. Boys name is all sorted but we are completely stuck with girls names. We would like to decide on a name before the 20 week scan as we did with our first child, Noah.

Current Shortlist:

Isabel Matilda
Isla Matilda
Heidi Matilda
Jemima

Would ideally like middle name to be Matilda (this is a very meaningful name to us), but obviously can't have Matilda if we chose Jemima. But we really quite like that Jemima is slightly more unusual. Concerned about the two 'a' endings in Isla Matilda. Does it sound silly?

Which is your favourite of our shortlist? And why? Any other names you can recommend that would go well with Matilda.

If your heart is set on matilda then go with that, just choose the first name you love (Isabel obviously!! 😂 😂 😂)

@Flappingflamingo I've sent you a pm. Hope that's okay.

How about Ivy Matilda. It’s similar sounding to Isla but has the same sort of vibe to match Matilda

I don’t think Jemima Matilda sounds that bad, it’s not like she would go by both names day to day. Jemima Isabel would be a nice alternative though.

Love re the name
Jemima (obviouslyGrin)

How about Jemima Grace?
