I love Iris and Veda.

Iris and Elise are both lovely, whichever goes best with your surname.

I like Elise. Reminds me of that piano music by Beethoven.

I also like Veda/Vida.

You could try

Alma
Ava
Amadora (I've been reading the Poldark series, sorry. I do like the name though!)
Eva
Irina
Ida

Team Veda !! It's underrated and equal parts cool and classic :)

Runners up for me are Sadie and Alice, the rest seam dated, but then again it could just be it's not my style.

Other ideas based on this list-

Eden
Olive
Elle
Shay
Haley
Jada
Macy nn Ace would be pretty cool with a delicate name
Prue
Brooke
Lara
Lexi
Keira
Meg
Gwen
Whitney
Gia / Gigi

Definitely NOT Ada! Real old lady name but not in a good way. I guess you’re too old for Les Dawson’s Cis and Ada sketch.
Elise is nice and Cara and Alice.

Please don’t name your child Veda - image of why attached!

Elise or Sheila

Iris: nice
Elise: nice
Sadie: reminds me of sad (seeing it written down). I personally wouldn’t
Alice: lovely
Ada: nice

Veda, Orla and Cara aren’t my cup of tea but there is nothing wrong with them.

Jewelspun · 13/10/2023 11:09

I prefer Eloise.

Bluela18 · 13/10/2023 11:12

Elise and Cara are nice
