Cannot decide on a name for DD, please help! My husband and I both really like Alice, Imogen and Isabelle but sadly can’t use any of these. Don’t really love any of the other names on our list so struggling to agree on the right one. Other ideas for names that you think we might love are welcome!

Zara
Vivienne
Juliette
Eliza
Lauren
Poppy
Holly
Lucia
Harriet
Emilia

How about Aliza instead of Eliza? It's closer to Alice which you like

Eek3under3 · 27/11/2022 06:14

We have very similar taste. Dd1 had a first snd middle name from your list.
Other names on my list (most have been mentioned above):
Lucia
Matilda
Heidi
Jemima
Elowen

I have settled on Alice for my third. If you love it go for it - so what if you know someone with the same name! It’s a compliment that you like their name 🤣
other names if you really can’t do Alice:
bonnie
emily
cora
lucy
harriet (love this especially as Hattie!)

I love Lauren and Lucia from your list, I think these names are so underused. I also like Poppy, Holly and Harriet.

Suggestions:

Lana
Aurelia
Florence
Evelyn
Matilda
Cleo
Penelope
Ada
Imogen
Robyn
Orla
Amber
Georgia
Eloise

I like Vivienne.

I also like Annabel.

Vexxa · 28/07/2023 15:56

We have very similar taste OP. DD1 is Beatrice and I think DD2 may be Eliza - Verity, Florence and Isobel are also on our shortlist. I also love Harriet but can't use it.

Whataretheodds · 28/07/2023 16:00

Zara - love
Vivienne - meh
Juliette - too frilly. Prefer Juliet.
Eliza - prefer Elizabeth
Lauren - prefer Laura
Poppy - cute, perhaps too cutesy?
Holly - love it but feels ubiquitous
Lucia - Loo-CHEE-ah? Yes, nice
Harriet - love
Emilia - not a fan. Sounds nasal and whiney.
