I love Maude (like GGGs little angel) and Mabel. Both would work well in France.

My cousin has moved to France with a Holly and a Billy - no one can say their names!

Ey-ra, first syllable sounds like the letter A

There is also Eirawen, which is Snow White.

Or Enfys, which is Rainbow. I love the fact that lots of ordinary Welsh names would have hippy associations when translated into English.

I like Romy (know a few) but I like Thalia better.

I agree - I thought the Dessica was Jessica for ages.

I have a Matilda but would have to be Matilde in France I think. They would struggle with Tilly which we use for short though.

dreamymum · 27/06/2008 10:06

Joelle is pretty.

OP posts:
laundrylover · 27/06/2008 10:06

But Noelle would work well in France...I have a friend Noelle whose baby is called Bebe!!!

jellybeans · 27/06/2008 10:06

lol at all mine being bad :D Ok you may be right!! I like a couple but just tried to think of unusual (but maybe got weird instead?)

laundrylover · 27/06/2008 10:07

Maybe a bit stateside Jelly??
