Hi all, DD number 5 is due some time this week. DH and I are still struggling very much with the name. So far we have Veronica, Margot, and Arabella. Suggestions very welcome! Our surname is Robert’s if it helps.

Those are lovely names, I'd go with Veronica which is very classic but rather unusual nowadays.

Some other suggestions which seem to me to fit the vibe:
Caroline
Justine
Meredith
Edith
Sarah
Alys
Cressida
Livia
Miriam
Iona

Oh wow, 5 girls - how lovely!

I like Arabella. Veronica is quite refreshingly different nowadays and Ronni is cute for the right child. Not keen on Margot.

Other ideas in a similar vein:
Annabella, Angelica, Aurelia, Araminta, Ariadne, Adeline, Beatrice, Cassandra, Calliope, Clarissa, Caroline, Charlotte, Cassia, Cecilia, Claudia, Catherine, Delilah, Daphne, Eleanor, Evangeline, Elizabeth, Emmeline, Francesca, Florence, Felicity, Fenella, Gabriella, Genevieve, Hermione, Isadora, Isolde, Jessamy, Jacinta, Jacqueline, Josephine, Joanna, Katrina, Liliana, Lucinda, Margaret, Madeleine, Miranda, Melissa, Natasha, Natalie, Natalia, Ophelia, Octavia, Philippa, Penelope, Rosemary, Rosanna, Stephanie, Serena, Susannah, Sylvia, Tabitha, Tallulah, Tamara, Victoria, Vanessa, Ysanne, Yolanda

Who's Robert and why are you using his surname? Smile

Audrey Roberts has a nice ring to it.

Juliette is a lovely name and has similar vibe to your choices.

Literally anything goes with Robert’s.

Do you already have a middle name picked? What are your other girls names? Knowing all that will help us with suggestions.

I like Veronica a lot and think it's due a comeback. Margot is ok. Not keen on Arabella. Its like someone out of a Jilly Cooper novel.

I like Margot, but Margot Roberts would be too close to Margot Robbie for me. Unless, of course, you want to name your daughter after her.

TheeNotoriousPIG · 09/05/2026 15:05

I particularly like Margot and Arabella! You're also very lucky that Margot goes with your surname. Unfortunately, the long O in it doesn't work with mine 😣

Camilla, Clarissa, Eloise, Felicity, Gabriella, Genevieve, Miriam, Selina, Tabitha and Verity are some of the others on my list for a future DD.

I'd choose Arabella.
I really like Veronica, but the RO syllable in both Veronica and Roberts is too much.

Not keen on Margot Roberts as it's too close to Margot Robbie. Also, I think Margot is a faddy name right now.

Suggestions:
Vanessa
Daphne
Cecily
Juno
Leonie
Harriet
Penelope
Lucy
Elsa
Imelda
