Birth registration appointment tomorrow. I've initially gone with Mila Eve for the past 4 weeks, but I'm still not 100%. My other alternative is Eve Celine. Sister is Orla. Literally spending all day and night going round jn circles. Please give me honest opinions and preferences on both choices x

Please help me name her...

I love Eve Celine. I would probably worry i was pronouncing Mila wrong. She is a wee smasher!

TomatoSandwiches · 01/03/2023 19:49

I like Eve, I'm not keen on the other two alone or with Eve tbh.
Out of those two choices Eve Celine Is slightly better.

Rauha · 01/03/2023 19:49

I love Eve Celine. Your daughter is beautiful.

TomatoSandwiches · 01/03/2023 19:50

Oh and she is absolutely gorgeous, congratulations.

itsmeagainagain · 01/03/2023 19:52

Evangeline ( a sort of mash up of them all)

MissyB1 · 01/03/2023 19:54

I would prefer Celine as first name, but Eve Celine is fine.
Mila is overly popular and easily mispronounced.

mnahmnah · 01/03/2023 19:54

She looks like Celine to me!

or Selena? Serena?

NewBabyonboard · 01/03/2023 19:55

Aww she's beautiful
Congratulations
She looks like a Mila Eve to me
Mila Eve Celine could also work why choose have them all xx

MILA AND ORLA match perfectly 🥰

amiold · 01/03/2023 19:55

Love Mila. She's as cute as a button.

Margo34 · 01/03/2023 19:57

How do you pronounce Mila? Is it like My-la? Or Mee-la? Or something else?

clpsmum · 01/03/2023 19:58

I don't think she looks like a mila tbh

ModerationInEverything · 01/03/2023 20:00

Eve Celine, although I love Evangeline as pp suggested.

spidereggs · 01/03/2023 20:06

Ooohhhh. Congratulations she's beautiful.

Love Evangeline. What a lovely combination and then you can decide nickname as she grows.

OneAndDon3 · 01/03/2023 20:09

Oh I love Evangeline for her. She's gorgeous.

Cornettoninja · 01/03/2023 20:13

mnahmnah · 01/03/2023 19:54

or Selena? Serena?

Me too - she’s gorgeous OP - congratulations.

Mila Eve (if you’re wedded to the combinations) is also lovely.

DotDotDotDotDot · 01/03/2023 20:16

I prefer Eve as a first name. Mila reminds me of milia.

WinterMusings · 01/03/2023 20:17

Awww she's adorable 😍

Do you like Ruby?

Rebecca-Becky?
Amelia - Amie

mila is fine, it just sounds a little bit 'hard' for a soft wee girl.

WhyIsBogdanSexy · 01/03/2023 20:19

Evaline?

I think she looks more like an Eva and I think it's a nicer name. I'm never sure how to pronounce Mila and I'm not sure it goes that well with Orla (especially if pronounced My-La).

She is utterly scrumptious no matter what she's called!

Meandfour · 01/03/2023 20:21

Eve. She is absolutely beautiful! As soon as I saw her picture I actually thought Eva and that’s before I saw your name choices.
congratulations!

ShesThunderstorms · 01/03/2023 20:23

I absolutely love Celine as a first name if that's an option?

Blip · 01/03/2023 20:23

Lovely names OP and your baby is absolutely beautiful.

pippabg · 01/03/2023 20:24

Oh what a pretty baby! Eve Celine suits her. As others have said, not sure of the pronunciation of Mila.

I agree

daisypond · 01/03/2023 20:28

I like Mila but it’s too matchy-matchy twee alongside Orla. Eve is a nice name I’d go with Eve.

PoorMrsNorris · 01/03/2023 20:31

There are sooo many E names around at the moment, Eve, Eva, Erin, Ella... and so many more.
I think she looks like a little Petal, but not sure if that's your sort of name.
I like,
Octavia (Tavi)
Delilah (Dilly)
Zoe
Juliette
Juliana
Marianne
