which do you like?

Emma

Lilah or margot

Ellie

I love Chloe (DDs name) but it gets called dated on here which I hate :(
I like Riley and Lilah

Margot. Wanted it for my DD so much but DP's cousin has a little Margot.

ALWAYS wanted to call a DD Maggie

Any but Riley

Riley - totally dire. Not keen on Lilah but rest are ok. Margot is nice.

Margot is lovely.

Riley or lilah

I like Emma or Chloe. I think Margot is a bit of a fad

My favourite is Lilah but I'd spell it Lyla! I think it looks less clunky like that.

I like Riley and Emma.

Emma and Ellie are a bit boring I think 😬Margot I don't like the sound of. The others are nice!

Emma is lovely 😍

You have a real range of styles there:-
Emma - traditional classic
Ellie and Chloe - Massively popular in the 00s, both on a big downward spiral so can seem a bit dated now.
Margot and Lilah - Of the moment trends. Margot especially is EVERYWHERE right now.
Riley - Chavvy

Emma is by far my favourite. I like Lila/Lyla too but spelt these ways. The h seems unnecessary and makes it look like it's short for Delilah.

Margot was refreshing 5 years ago but completely sick of it now. People seem to still be picking it in their droves as the lack of ONS data for 2022, let alone 2023, means plenty still seem to think it's 'different'. In reality, it must be firmly top 50 by now. Not that that's a bad thing but if you do want to avoid the name of the moment I'd definitely steer clear as everyone seems to be having the same idea right now.

I like them all except Riley which I thought was a boy's name but it terrible either way.

Chloe is lovely but a bit 90s

Lilah is nice... but I'd prefer Lyra or Leah

Ellie is nice but I prefer it as a nickname for Eleanor rather than a name in its own right

Emma is nice enough

Margot is ok but a little frumpy perhaps

Congratulations!

I like Emma best. It is a true classic.
Ellie is also nice but I know so many Ellie/Emily/Ella/...
Margot is cute, I think it's on trend at the moment. I can't picture a baby Margot though...maybe that's just me.
Chloe is a perfectly nice name, just not to my taste.
I dislike Riley and Lilah ( think the 'i' sound is too harsh). Layla is a prettier alternative IMO.

Hope you find the perfect name for your little one!

Lovely names!
Chloe and Emma are two of my favourite names - beautiful, well known names, not faddy, no need to shorten them, and suit all ages well
I love Lilah too (prefer the Lila spelling though) - more modern than Emma and Chloe if that’s your preference
Ellie is lovely, as long as you don’t mind how commonly used it is. I’d probably use it as a nn for Eloise or Eleanor.
I like Margot but it’s very “of the moment” and might not date well
Riley is least to my taste, but I think it could grow on me if I met a girl with that name

Chloe is still beautiful. Ignore those saying it's dated because it was more popular in the 90s.

Emma very pretty and classic.

There are too many Ellies.

Riley, very different from the others, not very classy imo.

I like Chloe, Lilah, and Emma.

Emma or Chloe

Margot is great but very overused right now

Ellie is done to death

Lilah - it’s a bit awkward, Lily is done to death and it blurs with all the Lola/Leah/Lyra/Leila/luna/Laras

Riley is just appalling. How about Ruby?

Riley - awful
Emma - lovely
Ellie - overused
Lilah - awful
Margot - don't like it
Chloe - overused 20 years ago

Love Ellie!

Would've used it if someone we know didn't already have a daughter called Ellie

Emma is also great

I vote Chloe- I think it is due a comeback! Half her future nursery or friends mums will probably be called Emma because it’s so ubiquitous amongst 30 something women. Margot is very popular now. So is Ellie. Lilah and Riley I just don’t like.
