Because I don't have a clue.

Here's the criteria:

  • surname is one syllable (spp?) so need something a bit longer to go is possible 3 syllables
  • DD1 is Abbie DD2 is Talia so ideally don't want A or T names
  • don't want something really common so top 10 is out want something a bit unusual but not wacky and is still pretty and girly

Oh and I'm very fussy and DP and I can't agree on anything.

There've been lots of votes for Helena. Maybe something to do with Helena Kennedy. I really like Ava/Eva too.

nailpolish - through fear of insult and it's not meant as one as Natalie is on our list

op's dd2 is Talia which has a very similar ending to Natalie - IYSWIM?

I have hunted through this thread for references to Macbeth in vain

Well yes, I take the point about those being boy's names. Yes. Quite right.

I also have a Tahlia - slightly different spelling, My other 2 are
Madeleine and Bethany
