Final 2 girls names!

[MrsT36]

We (think) we’re down to our final 2 would love to hear thoughts as baby is due very soon!!!

Alma
Georgiana

Surname is short and a bit unusual starting with a T.

I don’t love the nickname options for Alma but worry Georgiana is a bit long as we all have 4 or 5 letter names in the family.

Georgiana is much nicer.

Alma is an old ladies name and not in a good way!

I prefer Alma

Alma

Georgiana is lovely and has my vote.

I like Alma, but there seems to be so many short girls names these days, Isla, Ava, Aria, Ella, Eva, Mila, Orla etc. It's refreshing to see a longer name that's a bit different.

Also as your surname starts with T, Alma T reminds me of the Almat washing powder from Aldi. (probably just me though.)

Georgiana over Alma but have you considered Georgia is you think Georgiana is too long?

if*

Personally I prefer Georgina to Georgiana.

I don't like Alma, old fashioned and dreary, sorry.

@fairycupcakes annoyingly I just can’t seem to like Georgia, it’s the extra bit in it that I think makes it sound pretty!

@Whinge this made me howl thank you!!! Hadn’t spotted that. I did worry about it blending into the sea of short vowel names out there, but can’t help really like it.
I ruled out my favourite Evelyn because it was just too common at this point!

Georgiana. I'm afraid Alma is forever ruined for me by Alma Pudden in the Malory Towers book.

Georgiana over Alma definitely. Alma is awful. I do prefer Georgina and Georgia instead, but Georgiana is still lovely and offers tons of nicknames.

I love georgiana ❤️❤️

Alma is lovely! Georgiana, I think, will get mistaken or mispronounced as Georgina, it's just a little frilly for me.

Prefer Georgiana to alma.

But prefer Georgina overall.

Georgie or GG for a girl is so sweet

Neither are to my taste so I won’t comment on that. But as you have two I would keep both on the table and wait until she’s here. They’re very different names and you may find one fits more than the other

I actually really like both, refreshing choices rather than the usual names repeated on threads here.

I slightly prefer Georgiana but really like Alma too though I imagine Alma is more marmite

Alma. Love the meaning of soul in Spanish ❤️

Georgiana is also nice but a bit too much of a mouthful imho.

Prefer Liliana personally.

I know a couple of baby Almas - it has come full circle and sounds very elegant.

Love Georgiana.

What about Alba?

out of the two I prefer Georgiana with Georgie for short

Georgiana x

I agree with PP wait until she's here.
We had a first and second choice. I was almost certain she'd get the first name but when she arrived she was 100% the other choice.

Alma for me. IMO Georgiana is a bit clunky

Alma is rather dusty, woolly librarian with thick glasses.
Georgiana are you saying it like The Duchess, so Georjayna or saying all four syllables George iana?

I agree with this. I thought I had decided on DD's name until I met her, when I realised she was, in fact, her actual name.

I never understood how that could happen until it happened to us. Congratulations on your lovely baby

I have an adopted grandmother called Alma, she is the kindest woman I've met and children have always loved her, I think it's due a come back, so my vote is Alma.
