lexi or scarlett. ella very common now, and lola becoming common too. if you are concerned about that at all...

choosyfloosy · 10/03/2009 21:19

All nice - you can't lose. I do know an awful lot of Ellas but then I knew a lot of Katies, Kates, Kittys Kathryns Katharines and Catherines when I was growing up and that's still a fab name too. Congratulations!

(Don't suppose you'd consider Ellen? Ever since Thirtysomething I've loved that name, much more American than Ella though.)

Issy123 · 10/03/2009 21:32

Not keen of any of them.

jellybeans · 10/03/2009 22:18

Lexie or Ella

GossipMonger · 10/03/2009 22:20

Scarlett Ella

Clement · 10/03/2009 22:21

too many ellas. millions of them. lexie is lovely.

feedthegoat · 10/03/2009 22:22

Ella though I like all of them.

dizzydixies · 10/03/2009 22:23

I have an Ella and where we are its not common at all

I also have a Lexie and I can assure you its NOT chav in the slightest thank you very much - its Scottish meaning sparkling which I think is lovely

mine are short for Isabella and Alexandra

good luck with your choices, you could just wait and see what she looks like as all lovely names imo

Belgianchocolates · 10/03/2009 22:24

Ooh, your list is just too tough. Hmm, I think I'll have to go for Scarlett. It's been on my own list, but DH has vetoed it. I like Ella too.

Candlewax · 10/03/2009 22:25

Scarlett

DoThisDoThat · 11/03/2009 05:01

Scarlett Ella

That's a disease isn't it?

Lexie the best.

Wolfblass · 11/03/2009 13:05

Oooh i love your list.

Scarlett, Lexie and Lola are my faves. Ella is VERY popular nowadays..

lastboxoftampons · 11/03/2009 13:25

I like Scarlett the best.

Lexie and Lola are nicknames for longer names, IMO.

electra · 11/03/2009 13:27

Scarlett and Lola

FairMidden · 11/03/2009 13:28

Ella. The others aren't great, sorry. Possibly coloured by the fact that the only Lexies and Lolas I know are dogs.

Leannabanana · 11/03/2009 14:38

i really don'l like lexie and lola. sorry

Ella is your nicest choice in my opinion.

stepfordwife · 11/03/2009 14:41

like them all
like scarlett best
then lexi

MadameCastafiore · 11/03/2009 14:42

Ella - every third child is Ella or Ellie
Scarlett - pretty and different
Lola - stripper or porn star name
Lexie - pretty and different

dizzydixies · 11/03/2009 18:10

MadameCastafiore - thats certainly true in this house as we have 3 girls and one of them is Ella

certainly not that popular up here, she's the only one we've come across

on the other hand we thought we were being original with Lexie a few years ago and have now found there is ours in this village, another one a few months older in the next village and another one in the next village again

I know 2 Lola's as well

troutpout · 11/03/2009 18:16

errrm
Scarlett

Jojay · 11/03/2009 18:17

Lola

bratnav · 11/03/2009 18:19

I love them all, but my favourites are Scarlett and Lola, in that order.

nereidesinthemist · 13/03/2009 04:15

Not keen as all very popular but Scarlett

TinySocks · 13/03/2009 07:42

Scarlett or Ella
I don't like Lola or Lexie

Katnkittens · 13/03/2009 08:07

Scarlett
