Down to two girl's names

[WhiskersPete]

DD2 is due in a few weeks. We are down to 2 names. DD1 is called Anoushka.

So, Lyra or Holly?

(DH and I are both fans of His Dark Materials btw)

Natasha
Vanessa
Madeleine
Daphne

Leone
Esther (or Esme?)
Eleni
Miranda

Lyra sounds like my antiseizure tablets.

Lyra sounds like my antiseizure tablets.

Fortunately most people won't be familiar with these.

I would choose Lara over Lyra …Lyra sounds like Lycra .

Lyra is perfect.

It ticks the HDM box, especially if not keen on Serafina.

It is a lovely name in its own right and as unusual enough to go with Anoushka.

If still not sure, how about Asta or Xaphania?

I prefer Lyra of your two choices but feel it doesn't match the loveliness of DD1 name

How about

Verity
Beatrix or Beatrice
Astra

Lyra works better than Holly with Anoushka as PPs have said.

Other options:
Juliet
Saskia
Evangeline
Sabrina/Sabina/Sabine
Natasha
Larissa
Clarissa
Cordelia
Cassandra
Rosaline/Rosalind/Rosina/Rosanna
Marisa (Lyra's mother in HDM)
