Help with girl’s name - baby coming this week!

[Mitzymarvel]

Finding it so hard to settle on a name but baby is coming this week! Please rate or suggest alternatives based on our taste.

Here’s the list at the moment - middle name is likely to be Daisy.

Lena
Thea
Joanie
Juliet
Roslyn
Cassia
Josephine

Juliet and Josephine are lovely. I like Lena as a nickname for Helena.

Josephine is lovely not keen on rest

Not keen on any of those actually. I think it also depends on your surname which of course you’re not likely to put on here?

There’s no rush to decide before the babies born, you have time!
From your list my favourite is Josephine - nn Josie is nice.

I love Juliet and Thea.

Juliet is beautiful. Classic and elegant.

Juliet Daisy is fab.

Josephine Daisy is pretty, classic and fairly unusual.

Thea is beautiful 💕 by far my favourite!
2nd would be Cassia. Don’t like the rest sorry.

Juliet, Josephine or Cassia are all lovely

I prefer Rosalind to Roslyn

I was just thinking yesterday that 'Leonora' is not used much these days. nn Nora.

Lena - Leena or Laina? Too many L names popular
Thea - don't like it
Joanie - like, would put Joan on bc esp with Daisy as a middle name
Juliet - lovely but some people say it as Julie-ETTE which puts me off
Roslyn - Rosalind is lovely
Cassia - ok
Josephine - yes but will be shortened

Quite an old fashioned set of names, but I do like Thea 😊

DS would have been Josephine if he’d been a girl so that gets my vote!

Gorgeous names! I love Thea and Lena, I have four letter names that end in ‘a’ for my little girls too. Sounds weird but wait until they’re here and see what feels like. I loved the names Anoushka and Mila for mine but when they were born neither felt right, but the other name I shortlisted sort of clicked. I’m excited for you! All the best for a lovely healthy happy delivery.

They’re nice names:
Lena - if short for something
Thea-like
Joanie- prefer Joan
Juliet-yes, but prefer Julia
Roslyn-I don’t know this. Is it a form of Rosalind?
Cassia-yes
Josephine-yes

Just wait until she is here and see which name suits her. Sometimes people pick a name and then when baby comes that name just doesn't feel right for their baby. You have a lovely list. I really like Cassia of all of them.

@Mitzymarvel

Thea is my favourite from your list- it's a beautiful name.

Juliet
Cassia
Josephine

All beautiful names. Cassia can be Cassie which is sweet, Juliet can be Ettie which is also nice, and Josephine has loads of great nn options - Josie, Posey, Effie, Sephy. Lovely.

Thea is great

They are all pretty nice, just some a bit more distinguished than others. The order for me:

Cassia - lovely, elegant, so underused, and Cassie is a nice short form

Roslyn - I really like it, slightly Arthurian, you can imagine her killing it in Avalon. (Obvs it has da Vinci Code associations, but fading now.)

The rest

Juliet - it’s nice enough, getting quite popular, I prefer the simpler Julia

Joanie - only if short for Joanna - it’s a strong flavour, and options are good

Josephine - alright

Lena - fine but blurs with the endless Lara/Lyra/Lola/Leila/Luna/Laya/Lila/Leahs, so I wouldn’t

Thea - there are quite a few Theas but if you add it to the zillion Theo/dores it is overdone. It’s alright. I think Thora is more interesting and less lispy

Lena - ok but blends into the L trend a little so not quite as characterful as some of the others for me
Thea - is this pronounced Thea or Tia? It's quite nice but lots of Theo's around so maybe a bit blendy as well.
Joanie - Ok. Seems a bit 50s? I prefer Jean at the moment.
Juliet - this is beloved on mumsnet. I try to imagine studying Romeo and Juliet at school called this as a teen. A bit like being Romeo! It's quite a nice name though.
Roslyn - never seen this as a name. Makes me think of the chapel. Like it. I also like Rosalind.
Cassia - prefer Cassandra. Love Cassie.
Josephine - have always loved this name

As Luredbyapomegranate reminds me, I do like Joanna too. Don't hear that so much these days.

Another vote for Josephine!

Juliet or Cassia!

Lena is ok.
Juliette I prefer spelled like this.
