Second baby girl due in next few weeks and still havent decided on a name!

Please help me decide. Our surname starts with F and my first daughters name starts with F.

So far on the list we have,

Fern
Liv
Neve
Betsy
Edie

Is there any of these that are not nice/have negative connotations/bad nicknames?!

Thanks for your help xx

@PartySuziPlease

Lizzieant- i agree Edie and phoebe are too rhymey! I do like Eden with nn Edie.

I agree, Betsy is off the list. Its a bit frilly. Betsy off the list.

Thanks for the critical responses. I've not told any friends or family my list as i want it be a surprise. Its good to talk through it with you all

There's a poem called "Betsy Pud" (she ate more than she should). Good job you've struck Betsy off your list!

Of the ones you have suggested, I like Lois best and think it goes really well with Phoebe - both Greek in origin (I think!) and both proper names though quite short.

Fern is a bit bland.
Neve - prefer Niamh but it is overdone
Betsy - OK, might date
Edie - trendy, will date
Liv - feels unfinished

Like the suggestion of Zoe to go with Phoebe too.
