If you like Astrid, what about Isis. I know twin girls Astrid and Isis.

No, I knew a lovely Anoushka who was not at all Eastern bloc - it's no more pretentious than, say, Amelie imo.

I would vote for Ingrid as a nice Astrid substitute.

No, I have a good friend calld Anouska and she is english. Her DD is called Anya so she continued the Russian theme.

Anoushka is not pretentious at all.
I also like Natasha.

What about Myla? Or maybe Carina? (Am trying to find the same feel as the ones you've said you like but maybe failing miserably!)

If you don't mind me asking, what is yor DH's name? Am 90% convinced I am carrying a boy and no boy's names really grab me, so looking for inspiration!

Anoushka is just a diminutive of Ana.

MrsHappy · 28/05/2009 11:15

Oh the other one I like but is a bit "different" for my DH (so might suit yours?) is Roxanne.

Araminta nn Minty?

Some gorgeous names here. If you're still stuck, how about Isobel (I like the old English spelling rather than the continental Isabel(le)? Isolde? A

We have a Maya, which isn't too common now, but I have a feeling is about to become more popular (that could be Maia or Mayah, too). I also met a little girl called Naya the other day, which I think is pretty too.

Also love Matilda, very old English, but maybe too traditional for you.

Love, love, love Elodie, too, as someone suggested above.

Afric? It's actually Irish

have a look at some irish names, they're beautiful. I love Albha (pronounched Alva), Aiofe, Avril, Sadbh (pr. Sigh-ve), Niamh, Maeve, or Nessa, Orla, um, lots really.
