baby8 a girl due early march .narrowed down to 2 names
felicity bringer of joy or arabella meaning beautiful answer to prayer . baby conceived post miscarriage so both meanings seem right.
other children bethany lydia tabitha blake l leighton tudor and gabriel
worry arabella might be too sloany
gladys is ny late grandmothers name but think it might be too old fashioned and not sure if shed thank me and not sure if it sounds right

Arabella lovely. Felicity lovely. Please not Gladys.

Arabella, Anabella or Claribel.

Octavia is not only a gorgeous name, but your beloved DC8 is surely deserving of such a privileged title. That must make her pretty unique in namesakes. Goes brilliantly with Bethany
Tabitha
Lydia
Blake
Leighton
Tudor
Gabriel

You have wonderful taste in names and whatever you choose, I am sure will be perfect.
Please put Octavia in there somewhere.

Arabella is a beautiful name -- how about Felicity as a middle name? Even though Gladys is a family name, I would avoid it.

Goodness me, dc8 on the way - congratulations! You must be superwoman! I think Felicity is lovely. (I have a Felix though, so possibly biased). Good luck.
