Lilly
Sadie
Zara

Which is your fave? 💕

They are all lovely names!

ohyesido · 30/11/2024 21:23

Lily with one L is far more elegant than double in my opinion

sanityisamyth · 30/11/2024 21:28

Lily, but spelt correctly.

EggandStress · 30/11/2024 21:30

Sadie

DramaAlpaca · 30/11/2024 21:48

Zara, then Lily (that spelling).

Not keen on Sadie.

VegTrug · 30/11/2024 23:14

Sadie!

I could be wrong but I think Zara is a cultural name. Obviously I've no idea of your cultural background but worth being aware of. Not that that you can’t use a cultural name of course, but I wouldn't personally.

Mez123 · 30/11/2024 23:15

I think Zara is beautiful 😍

Georgie743 · 30/11/2024 23:18

I love the name Sadie.

they're all pretty but I wouldn't use Lilly unless spelt Lily.

Purplecatshopaholic · 30/11/2024 23:25

Lily (proper spelling) is lovely, but sooo popular. So I’d go with Zara as I’m not keen on Sadie

Zara is a cultural name? Intriguing. What culture? It was good enough for Princess Anne…

Zara and Sadie are both lovely. Less keen on Lily, although it’s pretty enough.

TaranFollt · 30/11/2024 23:36

I know a Zadie.. sorry if this introduces a variable you didn't ask for..but it's a combination of the two names you like.

Ooh, I love Zadie.

Zone2NorthLondon · 01/12/2024 02:49

Lily (don’t fuck about with double L)
Sadie is hideous, it’s a diminutive of Sara which is better
Zara, meh

user1492757084 · 01/12/2024 03:54

Favourite .. Zara 10/10
I quite like Lily.

Sadie is not to my personal taste.

Do you like Sarah, Zena or Zali?

MelainesLaugh · 01/12/2024 03:57

Lily or Zara. Sadie is a dogs name

Copperoliverbear · 01/12/2024 05:20

Sadie

I was going to say this too! I know a Zadie and I love her name (I also know a Zelia)
Otherwise: Sadie first then Zara

TheaBrandt · 01/12/2024 06:12

Zadie Smith the amazing writer so good positive connotations I would use that. Zena is nice

TheaBrandt · 01/12/2024 06:13

Don’t use Lily it’s so boring now. Sick of hearing it.

95percentcocoa · 01/12/2024 07:20
  1. Zara (love it)
  2. Lily (one l)
  3. Sadie
Mercurial123 · 01/12/2024 07:39

Zara.

RuthW · 01/12/2024 07:42

Sadie although Zara is nice.

Lily is awful, dated and too popular

pamshortsbrokenbothherlegs · 01/12/2024 07:45

Love Sadie.

Zara is perfectly fine, though not my style.

I dislike Lily (however you spell it) with a passion - it's so trendy, limp and forgettable.

Manchesterbythesea · 01/12/2024 07:49

I love them all! I’d spell Lilly differently though. Prefer the Lily spelling.
Zara (very Classy)
Lilly/Lily (gorgeous sweet name)
Sadie (My least favorite but still a cute name)
