Our beautiful daughter was born at the weekend and we have finalised our list of girl names down to 2. Of course, I prefer one option and DH prefers the other. He says I have the final decision. Which one to choose.....

Ada?
Or
Freya?

Middle name Louise 😊

You're down to two names, and she's only a few days old. Why not use one name for a week and the other name for a week? You'll probably find that one just feels more like her than the other.

Freya

Freya

Both lovely names so no need to stress. I prefer Freya as Ada may get lost in the Ava, Eva, Aoife, Ana names but it's whatever you can imagine calling her across the playground or at home congratulations on your baby girl 🙂

Another vote for Freya.
Freya Louise is very sweet.

Deedee87 · 29/03/2023 14:13

I like Ada 😌

Number24Bus · 29/03/2023 14:14

I have this name in mind myself Freya-Louise if I have a girl as it just clicked for me . X

I really like Ada AND Freya, so either would be fine.

MissHavishamsMouldyOldCake · 29/03/2023 14:19

I can't really see the appeal of Ada. It makes me think of a downtrodden charwoman in the 1930s. Although that might just be me as it is quite popular these days.

I like Freya.

I like Ada because it reminds me of Vada in the My Girl movie ☺️

Ada Louise
Freya Louise

I like them both - very sweet - but I think Ada Louise might flow better for me, just.

I guess it boils down to the surname and how it flows with the names. Also consider what the itinals will be.

YukoandHiro · 29/03/2023 14:50

Ada. I don't like Freya but not sure why, it's a bit fluffy to me.
Ada is a lovely strong name.

PoorMrsNorris · 29/03/2023 14:53

Frieda???

I like Ada best.

Slimjimtobe · 29/03/2023 14:55

Both lovely !! I do like Ada for it’s more quirky vibe (only my opinion)

Freya is really lovely too though

i would keep calling her either name every other day and see how it sits

shoopshoopdedoo · 29/03/2023 15:00

Freya - although Ada is also nice

Theoldwoman · 29/03/2023 15:00
