We need a girl's name beginning with D ...

[Upsidedowncake]

because our names begin with A and B - and then entirely unintentionally, we called DS a name beginning with C.

Front runners are Dorothy and Dorothea at the moment.

What do you think?

Deidre
Dee

Demelza
Daphne

Dionne
Dina
Davina
Dana

was it Demelza in Poldark (that ages me!)

DD's best friend is called Delphine and is known as Delphi.

Dolcelatte or Diphtheria

MB!! Dolcelatte is so cute!!

Andrew, Barbara, Callum and Dolcelatte!!

It is true that Dorothy used to be really common. It is my gran's name and she goes by the name of Hilda which is her middle name as there were too many Dorothy's around when she was a girl!

What about Darina?

Delilah?

are you going to all line up on the bookshelf?

I absolutely love Derby and Dawson for a girl

Dewey (decimal system)

Detchema (I think it may be aboriginal)

Oh god, Diptheria, that was one killer disease...

I particularly love
Dana,
Daphne
Delphine
Daehlia

and not to forget:

Darleene

Dolly and Dulcie were my faves

Dulcie is lovely. Dina maybe? Ds aren't easy are they?!

Dilys is a nice name.

Dionne
Delilah
Dahlia
Desdemona
Destiny
Dorinda
Dorota (German/Austrian variant of Dorothy)
Danuta
Danae
Dee
Denise

I nearly called DD1 Delilah.

pmsl @ Dolcelatte & Diphtheria.

Dementia

Dorcas

i like Demi

Ooh, I was going to say Dorcas, I love it, but when you think how the other kids will shorten it...

You know there really aren't very many nice 'd' names, are you sure about this?

I was desperate to call dd a d name as her brother is a d and I really had a thing about having a d and d! Confused yet?

My fave was Damaris but dh was not keen so we now have a d and i!

Also could have meant that we had a Dom and Dam if the names were shortened which would not have been good!
