Grace. I love it. I really don't like Alice. It sounds weak to me.

KoalaOok · 08/04/2021 18:45

Have you chosen a middle name?

If not I think Alice Grace sounds nice

Jayneisagirlsname · 08/04/2021 18:46

I really like them both! Could you wait till baby is here and see which one she lay it's?

Flymetothestars · 08/04/2021 18:50

Really like both

sarah13xx · 08/04/2021 18:50

Grace!

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 08/04/2021 19:15

Alice - much more timeless.

OloBo · 08/04/2021 19:41

Alice

Grace

Alice

sozzleb1983 · 08/04/2021 19:42

Definitely Grace. We have Grace Mabel and love it. She gets Gracie too xx

Cam2020 · 08/04/2021 19:49

Alice. But Grace is also nice.

Alice

Alice

I think it depends if you have picked a middle name although they are both lovely names and you can't go wrong with either

Wigeon · 08/04/2021 19:58

Alice. With virtue names I wonder what if Grace isn’t graceful, Joy isn’t joyful, Verity isn’t truthful etc! And Alice is a lovely name.

Amdone123 · 08/04/2021 19:59

Grace.

OwlBasket · 08/04/2021 20:00

Yes, Alice. For the reason Wigeon gives.

readytostand22 · 08/04/2021 20:00

Alice 😊

MalagaNights · 08/04/2021 20:01

Alice.
Both are elegant and timeless but Grace has had more popularity over the past 20 years so I'd go for Alice.

Tillygetsit · 08/04/2021 23:09

Alice. Much nicer.

CirqueDeMorgue · 08/04/2021 23:12

100% Alice.

DramaAlpaca · 08/04/2021 23:13

Alice by a long way.

I do like the 'gr' sound in Grace.

DramaAlpaca · 08/04/2021 23:14

I meant I don't like the 'gr' sound!

fifteenmillionmerits · 08/04/2021 23:38

Always loved Alice.

ChocFondant · 08/04/2021 23:46

Both lovely names. I'd wait until baby arrives (assuming she hasn't arrived yet) and then decide. I had such a gut feeling when I looked at dd that the shortlist became one name very easily
