Olivia

A few have said it already but Keira is my favourite and I think goes very well with the names of your 2 DDs

Leigh

I like Alice and Eliza but think both are too close to Elise. Keira and Paige both work for me with the names you already have. I love Emily though so that would be it for me!

Cally, Sally, Talia,

Just realised it was an i not a l

januaryjan · 03/08/2023 21:35

Aoibh

Which is the Irish spelling of Eve.
It means 'beautiful'.

januaryjan · 03/08/2023 21:49

Or perhaps the name Zaire - pronounced Zar-rah?

januaryjan · 03/08/2023 21:52

Apologies,

Zaira not Zaire

KirstenBlest · 03/08/2023 21:54

I think Zaire would be assumed to be said as Zigh-air or Za-ee-ruh

KirstenBlest · 03/08/2023 21:57

Cross-posted.

Lots of lovely name suggestions.

OP - please tell us at some point which name you chose. 😊

Tiredalwaystired · 03/08/2023 22:30

Elidh. (Pronounced Ayleigh)

Elidh. (Pronounced Ayleigh)

Isn't it usually Eilidh?

Tiredalwaystired · 03/08/2023 22:45

Not always. I knew one spelled in the five letter way. Also, I’m not sure there are rules about these things.

10littlemonkeys · 03/08/2023 22:45

I think Faith goes nice with your other girls names (lovely names)

Zye-ear according to the 70's song. One person suggested Aviva which I thought was an insurance company

Judging by your username, is your actual name Emma or Emily? If so then maybe avoid that name. I think Alice and Eliza are too similar to your daughter's name (Elise). Daisy and Leila are the best in your list.

Twyford · 04/08/2023 08:29

Please knock Caity right off the list. She'll either spend her entire life correcting people's spelling and hate you for it, or will change her name to a sensible spelling as soon as she possibly can.

bunnypenny · 04/08/2023 08:30

Mairi (Scottish for Mary - pronounced mah-ree)

WimbyAce · 04/08/2023 08:43

Paige is lovely, was on my list. I also have a Heidi 💕
