My daughter gave birth yesterday to her second child. Both her children are girls and the older one is called Kathryn. My DD cannot settle on a name despite the fact that through a lot of her pregnancy she was set on the name Verity. Now she's tossing up the following but can't settle so names similar might click. Names she likes. Florence, Felicity, Lyla, Violet, Iris.

i like felicity

why not verity?

I love Felicity. It’s my BF’s name but she’s been Flicker since she was small.

My non-list vote is Polly.

Just popped on to say she still hasn't decided. Will post once she does. Time is ticking

Verity is nice, and not too common.

Personally I love Violet, but it is not my baby.

Iris
elsie
lilith
emmalene

I like Florence and know one that is very cool. I like Lyla and Violet as well

BardoState · 12/07/2025 10:53

I think Felicity is lovely, with a lovely meaning

user12343333333334 · 12/07/2025 12:13

Imogen, Alicia or Vivienne are my favourites.
iris is becoming increasingly popular. I do so love it still.
