Baby is finally here and we’re down to these two for our second DD. First (now four) is Mabel. What are your thoughts? :-)

I prefer Cleo. But Penny goes better with Mabel.
Yes, I agree.

Cleo

Absolutely love Cleo but both nice

MerryMarigold · 05/11/2021 13:13

I think Cleo works better with Mabel for some reason. But I prefer Penny. It's a lovely name.

Neither. Penny isn't a name. Penelope might be.

Mabel and Agnes. Mabel and Ada. Mabel and Alice. Mabel and Maria. Mabel and Agatha.

Cleo

I've got a Cleo! She loves her name x

Penny, definitely. Less fashionable - more authentically old-fashioned; suits Mabel better and sounds better with it too

sourcherie · 05/11/2021 13:52

Also congratulations! 💐

So funny, Penelope and Cleo are our 2 front runners too 😄 I vote Penny as Cleos are popping up all over the place. It’s perfect though!

Luredbyapomegranate · 07/11/2021 10:34

Cleo all the way

Penny is wet to me - I would at least call her Penelope so she has choices

RuthW · 07/11/2021 10:35

Cleo.

Unless Penny is Penelope.

sageandbasil · 07/11/2021 11:02

Cleo is gorgeous

Camii · 07/11/2021 16:22

Love Cleo

Little bit late to the threat but I love Cleo!
What did you go for OP?
And congratulations!

Thefaceofboe · 11/11/2021 13:16

Penny definitely! Lovely name

TatianaBis · 11/11/2021 14:03

Congrats!

Don’t like either and neither go with Mabel.

I would do Beatrice, Phoebe, Posy, Violet.

Penny! I know quite a few Cleos
