Which girls name do you prefer?

[sunshineday223]

Hallie
Isabel / Isabelle
Lottie (but not Charlotte)
Madeleine / Madeline

Thanks in advance!

Madeline or Isabel. I like Lottie too but I would go for Charlotte nn Lottie which you don't want.

Madeline

Madeline

What about Lotta rather than Lottie?

Isabelle. Issy for short.

Lottie 😍

I don't like Hallie but like all of the others.

My niece is Isabelle so have a particular soft spot for that one. She's now 15 though so not a baby!

Hallie - too American and not a proper name.
Isabel / Isabelle - the 2nd best on your list.
Lottie (but not Charlotte)- first choice if choosing Charlotte as personally I like proper full names that can last a lifetime with the flexibility of shortening.
Madeleine / Madeline - still think of Madeline McCann.

My order of pref
Isabelle is my favourite of the lot.
Madeline (prepare for it to be shortened to Maddie)
I like Charlotte nn Lottie rather than just Lottie which you don't want.
Hallie doesn't sound like a real name to me for some reason. I however like Hailey.

Lottie and Hallie

Thank you for your views! I think Isabelle and Madeline are my two top faves - I don't mind Maddie as a NN.I love Lottie but also agree it may be better as a NN (but DH doesn't like Charlotte).
Hallie is the one I'm most unsure about.

We have one week to go! I'm wondering whether to wait until the baby is born to decide; or whether with everything going on after having a baby, it may just be an extra pressure we won't need!

Isabelle would be my favourite on your list. Also like Madeline, not keen on the others. I had stress choosing our babies name after she was born and regret not having it picked out beforehand as you'll be sleep deprived and have other things to focus on. I'd make the decision now to have one less thing to worry about tbh! Good luck on the birth ☺️

Still love Isabelle on your list. I like Hallie, also like Lottie but like you don’t like Charlotte but I think Lottie needs a full name for an adult as it’s a bit cute for an adult. I really dislike Madeline.

Madeline

Madeline

I have a Lottie who is just Lottie (don't like Charlotte - very boring/twee) absolutely brilliant name and always gets lots of compliments.

Love Madeleine. Could Lena be a nn rather than Maddie?
Love Isabella nn Belle
Lottie is nice andlovely for a child but I know of an older Lottie and she just totally doesn't suit the name. When people meet her they expect a young woman- you can see by the look on their faces. I'd put Charlotte or Carlotta on the b.c.😁
Not keen on Hallie. Sounds unfinished somehow. Nondescript.

I took our list of names and a name book into
hospital with me for our first born and we decided on his name whilst doing skin to skin contact. His actual name ended up being a last minute addition to our list that we added the week before.

Did the same for my second but I couldn’t decide or think and felt totally stressed out and indecisive.

Lottie is my favourite, I dont think you necessarily need to call her Charlotte, also prefer Hailey to Hallie

I really like Hallie, Isabel/le and Madeleine.

I love Charlotte but I'm not keen on Lottie. How does your husband feel about Carlotta. Or, at a real push, Scarlett? (I guess that would be Lettie, really).

If Charlotte is off the table, I'd probably go with Isabel.

Madeleine

Love Isabelle but it’s soooo popular if not overused.

Really like Hallie and Madeleine.

Love Isabel (personally the belle ending ruins it for me)
I like Lottie too, I know one who was a Scarlett shortened to Lottie.

Isabelle, however, Lottie is my fave if you were to have Charlotte on BC. It’s always a good idea I think to have the full name officially so she can use it when she is older if she wishes.

Lottie. Isabel has too many variations. Madeline will become Maddy so you need to be ok with that
