I love Mabel. It's the name of my pretend child that I would have if we could have another one and guarantee it was female.

I like Claudia, definitely but does it sound too much like Laura? They've both got that "aw" sound in the middle.

How about Claudette or Claudine if you think Claudia is too similar to Laura.
