Sibling for Orla

36 replies

Hello!
So we are expecting baby number 2! I'm after some girl name suggestions to go with sister Orla. I am Irish but DH is English so not at all pushed for another Irish name but equally open.

I love Margot but I feel like it's super popular right now. Heidi also on our list but worried it won't age well. We are after something elegant and timeless. Any name suggestions hugely welcome! Thanks in advance ✨

Susannah fits the elegant and timeless criteria, I think.

Margot is uber trendy at the mo so will seem very of this era. Heidi is pretty enough but I wouldn’t say it’s elegant.

I adore Maeve, and it would go perfectly with Orla. Yes it seems to be trendy all of a sudden within the UK but in Ireland it’s a timeless classic
