Name changed as I share our names in this. As the title, I'm due in 2 weeks.

Already have two girls, Florence and Robin. I'm becoming increasingly anxious we don't have a single name that feels right!

DH likes quite old fashioned names. He likes Connie but we don't like Constance. He likes Edith with Edie as a nickname but I'm not sure, where we live in the north west I already get a lot of 'oh isn't Florence very old fashioned' comments, I think Edith would illicit more of the same!

I really liked Eden instead and we were quite set on this for a while, but then had a bad experience with another child who turned out to be called Eden and it's just spoiled it for us.

I'm honestly finding it impossible. We have trawled lists and lists of girls names with no luck!

Please share some girls names. I like Olive but our surname is Doyle which sounds too much like Olive Oil!

I love Connie, if I had another I'd go with Connie wouldn't be short for anything <3

Think others have suggested lovely names. Daphne, Alice, Bonnie, Edie. Also echo that I wouldn't let one bad Eden ruin it for you!

Winnie? Nell? Nora? Sylvie? Stevie? Dorothy (Dot?), Esme? Felicity (Flick)?
