I'd also go for Chloe

Krakenwakes · 05/01/2023 22:24

Chloe -it definitely doesn’t have that random accent you put on it.
Freya is nice.
Not Scarlett.

FT123456 · 05/01/2023 22:26

I like Freya best

Firebird83 · 05/01/2023 22:52

Chloe would be more unusual than the other two on a baby nowadays

ODFOx · 05/01/2023 22:53

Don't put that accent on Chloe, unless you want it pronounced Chloer (well a bit like that with a French accent).

Osullivan · 05/01/2023 23:10

Thanks - I do love Chloe - accidental backwards accent ( fat thumbs ) ! I know it’s not exactly unusual and there is the chav things a few years back but it’s beautiful.

Also love Freya - it sounds so soft and beautiful but worried about popularity… obviously it’s risky with all my names on the shortlist that she won’t be the only one in the school … all are up there on the lists .

Scarlett - love the Hollywood vibes

I went for an unusual name with my first daughter and struggled with everyone’s reaction because I could see on their faces they they weren’t keen which knocked me. Now it’s ok but when you’re hormonal it’s not easy to battle the judgy judy’s and you question yourself !
I guess this time I’m going with the pretty names that I really like instead of picking something so out there for the sake of her being the only one !

I love Scarlett and find very hollywood too. I actually considered Katie Scarlett for DD.

I also like the name Gigi (and the book/movie) but would use Georgette or something as a full name

Cantchoosename · 05/01/2023 23:19

I like Chloe and Freya. Not so keen on Scarlett.

KirstenBlest · 05/01/2023 23:19

Chloe and Zoe might be a little close for cousins.
Georgette is a fabric.
Chlo and Frey not good, IMO.

Go with a name you like and are sure you always will. Sibling names don't have to match.

JamSandle · 05/01/2023 23:24

I really like Chloe, followed by Scarlet

SemperIdem · 05/01/2023 23:36

They were all very popular 10 years ago and feel a bit dated now.

Of the three I like Freya the most, followed by Zoe. I really don’t like Scarlett.

Fivebeanchilli · 05/01/2023 23:38

I like Freya best.
Chloe is ok.
I'm not keen on Scarlett.

Sliversands · 05/01/2023 23:41

I think Scarlett is lovely and Chloe is nice especially as its not very common nowadays. Freya is my least favourite but still nice!

KirstenBlest · 06/01/2023 00:03

@Sliversands , there won't be many Chloes her age, but there will be lots of them around. I know loads but they're not all the same age. They are 20ish now mainly, so the name might make her seem a lot older than she is.

Cats23 · 06/01/2023 00:57

Freya.
The other 2x are dated.

resm · 06/01/2023 11:13

Scarlett. It had a lot of personality.

RuthW · 06/01/2023 12:23

Scarlett by a mile.

Chloe very old fashioned and dated.

Freya ok

Luredbyapomegranate · 06/01/2023 19:16

Freya is probably less popular than Chloe right now (check).

Scarlett has had it’s day

DuchessOfSausage · 06/01/2023 20:13

I don't think that Scarlett has had it's day, just that it peaked about 10 yrs ago. There are fewer around than Chloe and Freya.
Why not wait until the baby arrives- she might not look like any of those names.
Best wishes for the birth. Flowers

Mañanarama · 06/01/2023 20:18

OP how about Cleo? Or Thea?

Of your list I love Freya the most, then Chloe, not keen on Scarlett.

Swalewhale · 21/02/2023 17:14

What did you choose in the end OP?

RosaBonheur · 21/02/2023 17:59

brusselspout · 05/01/2023 11:10

Chloé or Chloë never Chloè

This. Or just without the accent would be fine too.

Lovely name though.

Osullivan · 22/02/2023 06:20

Baby Chloé is born ! we call her Coco as a nickname 😍, it really suits her :)
