Alice??

Please tell me it goes as I am running out of options! Loved Olive but many pointed out they are different style names.
Also like Ivy.
We have a one syllable surname.

Elaina?

@Checkingout811 Eva is much nicer. Kasia is nice Smile

Yes I have spelt it that way as I have Italian blood. It never occurred to me when I named her that my second name would have to ‘match’.
The names you have suggested are lovely but I am veering towards the more traditionally English this time.
How much does it matter that they aren’t both Italian ‘looking’?

Feel like Lilly will be become even more popular.
Detest Helena as it reminds me of a horrible woman I know.
Not keen on Anya Lydia or Julia sorry!
Like Freya but have one in the family. Lots of children in DPs family which makes it more difficult.

Isabel
Elena
Gianna
Claudia
Francesca

Parents are actually not on speaking terms with family if this helps at all Grin

Stick with Alice

Midnightstar76 · 17/06/2021 20:06

My daughter is called Sofia and her eldest sister is called Ella

Sofia & Ella

AlwaysonEtsy · 17/06/2021 20:12

I like Ella but DP vetoed it. Strange as his first (and only) suggestion was Ellie

I said Alana to my dd and she said ‘banana??’ Grin it has put me off
