Hi

Just after some help and suggestions on a baby girl name ! We don’t know what we are having, but have a baby boy name already decided.
We are not certain on a girls name 😬 and my wife and I are struggling to agree !
The middle name is definitely Hanna (family theme). Current first name options:

Otterley
Wren
Matilda
Elora
Indigo
Olive

Appreciate people’s thoughts on these names and if anyone has any other suggestions. (Baby brother is called Artie btw)

Otterley: Ottilie Is one of my favourite names, your spelling makes me wince though, sorry!
Wren: pretty, but a bit of a name to live up to as you’d expect a Wren to be tiny and delicate.
Matilda: meh, no strong feelings...it’s ok.
Olive: hate it, ugly name.... sorry!
Elora: love this name.
Indigo: I like this but it’s a bit too hippyish for my taste.

@PO4dad

Thanks for all your comments and tips ! Very helpful 👍🏼 Otterley should have been spelt Ottilie my wife has subsequently told me ! 😂 I miss spelt it. It is a name I don’t like and she does ! 😬
Oh just spotted this update, sorry!!

I really like Elora.

i only recognise Matilda and Olive as proper names, neither of which i particularly care for.
but either of them are vastly better than the others in the list.

I love Indigo Hanna, my favourite of your list.
I like Matilda, Elora and Wren - not sure they sound good with Hanna though. I dislike Olive and really dislike Ottilie.

Estelle Hanna
