At A Loss For Baby No. 2

I am 33 weeks currently. DH and I can't agree on a name 🙈. The names I like he doesn't care for and vice versa. It's a bit of a nightmare.

We have a little girl who is 3 called Amber and her middle name is Lilly.

Thank you for all of your suggestions.

I was waiting on DH sharing his name ideas but I think I'll be waiting a long time. I know he likes Mia and Maya. That's about it.

Baby no.2 is confirmed to be a girl.

Names that I like -

Violet
Esme
Willow
Lyra
Emilia
Emmeline
Liesel

Just to name a few.

Though I like them I don't particularly love them. I'm just terrible with names 🙈

Lyra and Amber sound great together - they are both characters in ‘The Amber Spyglass’ and some other his dark materials books by Phillip Pullman which is quite cool.

Maya was on my girls list and I loved that name but Mia feels a bit boring and slightly dated.
