Baby girl due in 2 weeks - no name - HELP!

Okay so I'm stressing out 😂

C-section is two weeks today and we currently have no name. We've trawled through name books and lists online and nothing is standing out. The only one we've been half set on up to now is Tilly, but some days I like it and some days I don't feel sure 😂

I already have a daughter called Elsie, so looking for something that goes with that. I don't mind something unusual as long as it's not too wild, and I do like old fashioned-y names.

Wondering if anyone has any suggestions 🤞😫

Thank you x

Elsie and Matilda nn Tilly?

I'd go for Matilda with nickname Tilly. A friend's daughter is Matilda and goes by the nickname Mattie.

Or Mabel. It's such a sweet name.

Matilda with the nickname Tilly.

Beatrix/Beatrice...Trixie for short

I've always found Tilly to be a bit twee but that's just my opinion.

I don't have kids but if I did my top girls choices would be Nina, Aphra or Rachel.

HTH!
