27 weeks pregnant and have a boys name if its a DS2 but can't decide if its a DD. I kind of like Olivia but thinking there may be 500 of those in her school year ! I like Ruth but DH vetoed as name of a former girlfriend ! DH likes Rebecca but I don't. Need some ideas of similar sorts of names that I can show to DH so we can come up with a shortlist.
Any ideas gratefully recieved.

Victoria, Ophelia, Isabel, Maria (Maricella, Marisa), Alexandra, Sophia, Cassandra, Helena (be careful about the pronunciation on that one, though). Alicia (ditto).
Joelle, Danielle?

Ruth and Rebecca are both lovely. How about Naomi, Esther or Martha?
