Have a while to ponder these names but wonder if people think these are popular or are becoming ?

[MillyMollyMoo]

We've tried to keep out of the top 20, but failed with another DC's name, here goes.

Clare or Clare
Eliose
Sadie
Talia

DH likes Sally too but it's the name of a bunny boiler ex of my brothers

We called the cat Sophie which I'm kicking myself about now lol And I was once sued by a Tess lol

Funny how everyone has different take! I was sure Clair was the French version and the two Tahlias I know have 'h's ! All 4 of the names you've shortlisted are lovely.

What about Phoebe? or is it Pheobe?

I like Clara and Sadie

Or Darcy?

Talia- does it rhyme with Maria, pronounced Tarlia or Ta (as in thankyou) lia.

I like Clare. It is lovely and classic and will be considered unusual amongst her peers for sure!

I love Darcy DH hates it

I would pronounce Tal - ee - a

Maisie, Daisy, Ruby, Rosie?

sorry thesecondcoming, I too have a Clara.

It is the best name ever.

LOVE Clara, Clare is nice too
Sadie is gorgeous
Eloise is just another Ellie-name to me
Talia has been ruined a bit for me by someone IRL, so I'd say no to that

Clara or Sadie, say I.

I love Sadie and Talia - was tempted by Talia for dd, but having read some of the posts on this thread I'm a bit relieved I didn't go for it!

I think, but could be wrong, that Talia has Hebrew origins and is pronounced Ta-le-a, while Thalia has Greek origins and is pronounced Tar-le-a. I've never come across Tahlia.

Just love it when one of your DCs names gets utterly slated on MN

Talia is pronounced Tah-lee-ah is an old testament Hebrew name meaning Dew from Heaven, unless the Hebrews were chavs do not think it is chavvy

Well DH has just said no to Clara so we're back to Sadie and Talia, which as we may be having twins there is every possibility I may get to use both

So glad we've got that sorted with just 36 weeks to go lol

Wow 'may be having twins....' how come you don't know?

Sadie and Talia do go nicely together (5 character symmetry)

Eloise - lovely, and coming into fashion I think- you could end up with another top 20!
Clare - very classic
Sadie - short for Mercedes isnt it? Always sounds american to me for some reason.
Talia - never quite hits the top ten, but perennially popular. I personally dont like it, sorry.

MillyMollyMoo don't leave us in the lurch.... how do you not know if you are having twins or not?... (adoption/surrogacy or unable to scan??)!

What about Elise? I think that's very pretty and classic, but not as flowery as Eloise?

I love the name Clara, it is absolutely beautiful.

Is Clare-without-an-i really Irish? It's my middle name and I didn't know that. Always felt short changed by lack of i!

I like Clara - Eloise ok but I associate it too much with the song. Don't like Sadie at all, sorry. Talia is ok

Yep think so, like County Clare. I knew a Clair who always felt shortchanged by lack of 'e' !

Clare and Clara both lovely
Sadie makes me think of Sadie Frost and therefore awful, sorry.
Others - ok
OP says she has 36 weeks to go so I suppose has only just found out she's pregnant. Am guessing either had IVF and 2 embryos put back or twins in family hence twins a likely possibility

Ah, misread it. Thought 36weeks gone! MillyMolly will have 4 totally new names by 36weeks gone...!
