Hi all, currently expecting a baby girl and we’re stuck between Lydia or Lucy. My name is Louise so I wanted to have an L name for my little girl, husband prefers Lucy but I like Lydia!

All opinions welcome 😊

Lucy. My favourite girls name. (I'm Louise).

What about Leah, Lily, Lexi, Linzi, Lena, Lori or Leigh?

I think Scottie13 was in her last gin of the night when she came up with those.

Rude!

Just because they’re not names you’d choose, there’s no need to be rude about it

Not a big fan of either, but I think I'd say Lydia. I think Lucy is quite a nice name for adults, that are adults right now though

One of my favorite names is Laura.

My 2 favourite names! I went for Lucy in the end Smile

Prefer Lydia. Also like Lyla

I have a Lydia , a Lydia Louise. My little liddy lou, there’s even a book called Lydia Lou that she loves.

Love the name Lucy!
I work with someone called Lusiana shortened to Lusi if you wanted a name that can grow with her. (Although I think Lucy is a great standalone too).
