Help me decide!!!

[wheresthehope]

I’m currently pregnant with a girl due March so I am running through name ideas!
My picks are Briar, Freya, Gabrielle and Mila.
Middle name will be Lois.
She will have a big brother who is Noah

I think Gabrielle sounds best with Lois as a middle name

Freya

Gabrielle Lois I think. Love Freya too - was my second choice of girl’s name. I have a Noah too - great minds!

Gabrielle. Lovely and Congratulations

I love Briar.

Briar is beautiful. Slightly unusual without being out there. Goes perfectly with Noah.

Too many L's flowing with Mila and Gabrielle

Freya
Or
Briar.

Gabrielle

All lovely! If such things bother you I think Noah and Gabrielle sound best together. Congrats!

Gabrielle, or use Lois as first name

Freya and Gabrielle are very nice.

I'm not a huge fan of Mila simply because I'm not used to it as a name and so it tends to remind me of milia (the little spots newborns get). That's just because it's unfamiliar though.

I've never heard Briar used as a name. I'm in Ireland and it's used here to describe someone being bad-tempered...'he's like a briar' means he's in a very bad mood, lashing out. I've often described my children like this when they're particularly tired and cranky!

Freya - I'm sorry - but I really dislike and it's quite popular so I just don't get it. Briar - don't know how to pronounce, bry-uh? Don't like.

Mila is my fave (mee- la), Gabrielle is v nice too.

Gabrielle is lovely, Freya nice, Mila a bit bland and Briar is just odd.

Gabrielle is best from those 4
Then Freya.

Not Mila and definitely not Briar

Gabrielle or Freya.

Definitely not Briar or Mila.

@LizzieAnt that’s what I was thinking. I’ve called all my children briars at some point. Cranky little fuckers they were!

I think the endings of Freya and Briar are too rhyme-y with Noah. Also I really don’t like Freya at all and agree about the not great connotations with Briar.

I really like Mila and Gabrielle. They go great with Noah

Thanks for the feedback!
I’m in New Zealand so mayb briar is slightly more common over here although it’s not one I know to many of.
I Don’t know a single Freya or Mila here but did have a racehorse called Mila and I liked it from that!
Gabrielle has been a favourite since I was younger.
Freya I seen on the top 1000 girl name list!
My partner also has a daughter called taya so the ‘A’ endings could all be a little much?

Yes, I do think they might be too much...I don't think I'd pick Freya at any rate. Mila has the 'a' ending too, but not the 'y' at least. Not sure about Briar as it depends on accents - theres a definite 'r' ending in my accent, but I know that's not the same for all.

I think I'd go for Gabrielle

I like Gabrielle - lovely choice.

I like Lois best.

Freya.

Hate Briar.

Noah and Lois would be so lovely together. Same length, o in same place , two bible names..
But Gabrielle is lovely too

Noah and Freya go lovely together as brother and sister. Freya is gorgeous

Briar is gorgeous and I also love Bryony. Mila reminds me of milia spots and I strongly dislike any 'mealy' sounds- I just hear 'mealer' with that name.
