I like both Alice and Grace they have a similar vibe traditional and classic. I am finding it hard to decide between them, which one do you like the best?

Grace

AndNowForSomethingCompletelyDifferent · 04/01/2023 16:44

Alice but only because I’m bored of Grace, it’s everywhere. Especially as a hyphenated middle name

KirstenBlest · 04/01/2023 17:13

Alice. Grace meaning is nice but it's a lot to live up to.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 04/01/2023 17:18

Alice by a country mile. Grace is a bit meh now there are so many 'hyphen Grace' little girls.

Alice ✔️

Alice, I have known ones who go by different versions and it has suited all of them well

I'm sure the following will be forgotten by the time she's at school, but

"Alice! Alice? Who the fuck is Alice?"

Sorry my first thought too !

CakeCrumbs44 · 04/01/2023 17:58

They're both nice, I would wait until she's born and you might get a flash of inspiration for one or the other.

Vinylloving · 04/01/2023 17:58

Alice

EATmum · 04/01/2023 18:01

I'm biased, with an Alice of my own - but it's such a lovely name. She likes it too if that helps. Then again, Grace is lovely too.

Zuve · 04/01/2023 18:05

Alice every time

BowiesJumper · 04/01/2023 18:06

Alice!

emmathedilemma · 04/01/2023 18:08

Alice

SallyWD · 04/01/2023 18:11

Love them both. Maybe slightly prefer Grace.

avocadotofu · 04/01/2023 18:12

Another vote for Alice but Grace is lovely. The Grace I know goes by Gracie which I quite like

baublesandbreakdowns · 04/01/2023 18:19

Alice. I don't really like Grace but I don't know why.

knitfastdieyoung · 04/01/2023 18:31

Alice - don't understand the love for Grace tbh....

FartWrangler · 04/01/2023 18:31

Alice

CaveMum · 04/01/2023 18:33

Don’t decide now. Wait until you meet her and see which suits her best! You may pick a name then find you feel it’s not “hers”!

tillyrainbow · 04/01/2023 18:40

Grace for me

cptartapp · 04/01/2023 18:43

Alice over Grace.
Alicia (similar) over Alice.

Hotsweatymomspagetti · 04/01/2023 18:45

I like Grace not completely fond of Alice however Alice Grace (as a middle name) is lovely

stbmum · 04/01/2023 18:47

Definitely Grace, I love it, for some reason I really don't like Alice.

stbmum · 04/01/2023 18:49

Grace Alice

Ani57 · 04/01/2023 20:15

Alice definitely! Grace is nice too but not keen on Gracie which is what the Grace I know ends up being called.
