Struggling to name baby girl due in three weeks - so far I quite like Clara, Isla, Alba, Etta? Thoughts/suggestions? Doesn’t have to end in an A!

Etta and Clara are lovely!

I love Clara, also a pp's suggestion of Iona.

I love all four names but Clara is my favourite as timelessly beautiful name. I also love, Lyra, Lana, Alice, Willa, Lucia, Lola, Stella

My daughter was nearly an Isla but glad she wasn't...so many of them round here! Also love Iris and Ailsa

I love all your names especially Clara but I'd ditch Isla as it's too popular. Iona would be an alternative choice to Isla as there's hundreds of them around atm.

Isla is really really popular where I stay. There’s so many of them! Lovely name but the others you’ve mentioned aren’t seen as much.
