Love Libby, Alexandra, Erin.

Dislike Eliza, Matilda and Olivia. Have never understood their popularity... but clearly others love them!

My daughter is Elizabeth nn Libby, obviously I love it I think it’s pretty. I understand others not liking names but can I ask why you think it’s awful and can’t stand it? What’s so bad about it?

Twinsmummy1812 · 23/10/2022 05:03

OP. Sorry to hijack your thread then. I can’t sleep and delivered my Libby back to Uni today and miss her like crazy, she’s awesome.

namewise it’s amazing the variety of opinions people have. Some pp’s top 3 are other pp’s bottom. Clearly there isn’t a name everyone agrees one. Whatever you choose I’m sure your daughter will be fabulous and the name you choose will be perfect for her x

Verity-Lovely, good all round name
Libby-Short for Elizabeth
Josie-Love
Flora-not very versatile
Seren-..dipity?
Wren-short for Serendipity
Naomi-A bit of a marmite name
Alexandra-She's probably going to be an Alex or Lexi, fine if you're okay with that
Sadie-I know of 3 dogs and 2 Guinea pigs called this
Pippa-Phillipa
Felicity-Love
Lara-Stripper name
Maeve-Everyone will constantly ask how to spell/pronounce it
Erin-Sounds like someone forgot the rest of it
Margot-Like :)
Thea-Althea? Theodora?
Eliza-'Dear Liza,Dear Liza' #
Alice-Like but over-used
Matilda-Love
Emily-Popular
Rosie-Meh
Freya-I've only ever met people I don't like with this name
