That's about it really! I love the name Grace, but it is very popular in my part of the world. Any ideas welcome!

top of my girl's list is Clemency Grace, next is Eliza Genevieve.

Alas all the Joys I have met are really not...

BlueBumedFly · 09/10/2009 21:52

I have a Clementine, which is of 'clemency' or full of grace?

jasper · 09/10/2009 21:54

Anna means grace

pranma · 09/10/2009 21:55

Eleanor is beautiful (DD1s name. DD2 is Grace)

Nancy66 · 10/10/2009 10:58

What about Sarah? It's really underused now and I think it's a lovely name with a lovely meaning.

guineamango · 10/10/2009 18:10

I have an Eve already Named after her great gran.
So far from this collection I like Beth, Ruth, Eleanor, Freya and Verity.
DH fussy - we can only agree on Beth!

Amelie - not sure of the spelling, like Emily, but with an 'A'.
Hope
Clara
Verity
Rowena ??? I love it, but realise others may not!
HTH.

nappyaddict · 10/10/2009 18:42

Ruth or Eleanort definitely out of the ones you like. The others are nice but getting quite popular.

biscuitbear · 10/10/2009 20:37

I like Greta too. I think its gonna get more popular.

guineamango · 13/10/2009 13:42

It is hard finding the perfect name! On top of that I work in an animal rescue center and spend a lot of time naming stray animals. Therefore it can be hard not to be reminded of a dog/cat with a similar name
