Old Lady Girls Names..

To go with Charlie.

Baby isn't due until March but we just can't decide on any names and it's exhausting us both a bit...

Elsie, Marjorie, Violet, Maggie, Annie, Betty/Betsy...

I LOVE Violet and Elsie but DP is having none of it, although he is fairly open to most names.

Matilda, Maude, Edith, Josephine, Iris.
