Lee factor

[peaceofmind1]

Baby girl due... please help!

I didn't realise how many names rhymed.

We don't want anything too cute e.g Daisy, Poppy etc

We don't want anything too old fashioned e.g Betsy, Enid etc

Names we like

Eliza
Florence
Maeve
Clara
Leah (doesn't work with Lee)
Emily (Favourite name but doesn't work with Lee)
Rosa (Another Favourite but doesn't work with Lee)

We have considered but gone off:

Emilia
Amelia
Isabella
Isabelle
Hannah
Charlotte (harlot?)

Hit me with your favourite names pls.

What about Violet?

I do think some of the names you've listed work fine, with the exception of Leah. Once she is here it will just be her name! I would go for three or four syllables, not too many 'li' sounds. Although that also sounds alright to me, I quite like the sound of Cecilia Lee.

I really like the name Violet but worried it sounds like Violently with our surname

Farrah

Eliza and Florence are both lovely and sound OK with Lee

Other suggestions:
Josephine Lee
Amanda Lee
Imogen Lee
Rebecca Lee
Freya Lee

Oh shoot... I misunderstood. I thought you already had a child named Lee. Sorry. 🤦

Christina
Katharine
Rebecca
Isobel
Imogen
Eleanor
Annie
Harriet
Josephine
Ramona

Robyn Lee

francesca lee
eliana lee
lydia lee
sophia lee

Isobel is lovely but don't like the look of

Isobel Lee - all I can see is belly

Love Annie but too much of a nn. I also don't think Anna works with Lee

Have to say I thought of this then realised that!

Jillian Lee

I'd follow Vivienne Leigh's example and go for a naming ending with an N sound.

Madeleine Lee
Marianne Lee
Carolyn Lee
Imogen Lee
Saffron Lee
Rowan Lee

Juliette

forgot to add Sophia.

Yeah Violet definitely does not work with your surname.

Could you hyphenate the name so it's 'Emily-Rose Lee' and then just call her Emily?

Sophia is on my list. We live in an area whetr there is alot of Sofias, Saffias etc so I think will just blend it.

I really like Sophie DH isn't keen

Victoria
Cora
Helen/Helena
Vanessa

Can you add in another surname? I can see why you find Lee tricky, but works well as a linking name.
Eg Clara Lee Henderson.
I know you have gone off Charlotte, but I think that works quite well with Lee. So, maybe Scarlet Lee instead?
If you like Anna and Isabel then how about Annabel Lee?

We did consider this but DH doesn't love the hyphen.

I have considered a double barrel but without the hyphen

Unfortunately not, Lee is both mine and DH surname and I don't want to add my maiden name.

I do really like Annabel (and Annabelle)

But the famous poem Annabel Lee puts me off plus I also think it has the Bel-Lee problem
