Baby due today, still haven't agreed on a name. Something similar to Cecily or Helena - can you help???

[needanamefast]

Ok so DH and I cannot agree.

We don't know the sex but are a bit more stumped with girls names.

I love both Cecily and Helena, he thinks they are ponsy. I also love Romily but a close friend has named her baby that about 6 months ago. Same with beatrice and martha.

Dh likes names that are now too popular in my opinion (I think the are nice but I have a popular name and it drove me bonkers at school). eg Poppy, Hannah, Evie, Olivia

Can you help??? Think this baby might be nameless... Looking for classy names that won't date, are pretty but not too girlie and ideally outside the top 30/50.

Boys - maybe alexander or adam. urrghh who knows.

DS 1 is Louis.

HELP!!!!!!
(have name changed)

clementine
Coraline
Cora

I´m in Germany, & a name I really like is Jette, pronounced Yeta.

I think Serena is a nice name.

yes I like emma.
not keen on celine/celeste/clementine.
know a clara and cecila.

can you think of names that end like cecily or romily?

but otherwise keep all names suggestions coming - you ladies are FAB.

am gutted to know so many martha's. such a beautiful name. ditto matilda.

coralie - might have already said that one
Adelie
Floralie

Lucia?

Loralie /Laurelie(sp?) but there was someone in Jerry Maguire called that I think.

can anyone find that thread where people wrote down the names of their kids, might look there for inspiration??

I like all of these that you have just posted!

thank you diddl! are you preggers too?
do you think they aren't tooooo mainstream or too wacky?

am going to concentrate on girls names today - boys tomorrow!

love Anna

what about :

Lucinda
Felicity
Rosanna
Marianne
Celia

No, too old!!

Depending on surname, I´d be most tempted by Cecily, Thea, Elsa.

I wanted Hebe, or Jocasta, but husband wouldn´t go with either.

Fave boys names are Hamish, Rufus, Oscar & Felix.

I think that Anna and Elsa are both lovely. What about Annalie if you like 'ily' sounding endings?

I have a Cecily- it's a brilliant name and DH loves it. Also shortlisted Romilly and Orelie FWIW

I wanted Helena - was overruled, and have a Katherine. Also loved:

Nina

Rosa

Harriet

Marianne

so lots of names that have come up here already!

Agatha
Clara

How about:

Emmeline
Melody
Elodie
Amélie
Darcie

Also like Esme!

Felicity
Romy
Saskia

Think your DH should embrace the name Cecily - it's lovely!

I went to school with a Heleni (pronounced Hell-ay-nee) which would seem to fit with your Helena/Cecily ideas.
I love Tamsin and Camilla too.

Phoebe?
