baby number8 stuck for names girl 4 help

[mumofsevenplusfour]

baby 8 a girl due early march a fourth girl
pregnancy hormones or what but we seem to be going round in circles .had narroewed it to arabella or felicity but gone right of arabella and not sure about felicity . as conceived post miscarriage would love a name meaning that reflects joy answer to prayer etc also want something unusual to go with bethany blake lydia tudor leighton tabitha and gabriel but not pretentious irish name possible as half irish or unusual biblical
our shortlist which is growing again includes
martha
alice dh had cat so he not sure
cecily ilove dh doesnt
cecilia i keep hearing the song
prisciila possibly too pretentious
mathilda
aoife
saoirse
felicity
gladys
genevieve too difficult to spell and problem with shortening it
harriet
clodagh ds3 2nd name so not sure
arabella again too sloany?
elyssia too contrived?
miriam
charlotte too popular
any suggestions opinions gratefully received please be honest

agatha or fidelma were also possiblities

Miriam is lovely. I like Clodagh too but not if you have already used it. Mind you, there are mitigating circumstances if you really have 8 children.

Octavia?

congratulations

felicity, miriam, priscilla and saoirse lovely. i like cecily

but if you are worried people cant spell genevieve they wont even be able to pronounce saoirse

alice, martha, harriet and charlotte too popular i agree

sorry but i think gladys is ugly

agree arabella is sloany

do you need a name that can be shortened?

if you like Biblical, what about

esther
susannah
claudia
lois
judith
rhoda

thanks for that esther lois claudia had all been mentioned at one time love esther but not sure it goes with our surname which involves a compass point reference and lois was dismissed because of superman also liked phoebe but used for a little girl miscarried late

DH and his siblings (inc sisters) all have mn (one of their many mns!) Dominique. It's actually unisex and after patron saint of 'hopeful mothers', 'thanks for a new baby' etc.

I still like Felicity best, followed by Harriet.

Philippa (Pippa) would also go with your others I think.

Felicity is lovely, I also love Amelia!!

I like Genevieve bestest. plus have never ever met one

Harriet is lovely.

cant sleep wont sleep love philippa but have niece called that so cant really use it but thanks for the suggestion

Mathilda.

Octavia

congrats

what about Cecile if you like Cecily/ Cecelia?

Genevieve could be shortened to Evie?

how about Marianne?

Cordelia
Celeste
Beatrice

I love Genevieve and you could shorten it to Evie

Felicity is lovely. I also like Aofie, especially if you have Irish links.

Caoimhe -pronounced Keeva?

I think Octavia would be lovely!!

I also like Agatha or Cornelia (Nelly?)

Máiréad
Sinéad
Nuala
Orla
Connlaith
Deirbheile

Felicity is lovely. The only Arabella I know is loathsome, so that would put me off. And I once heard a skit about Sloaney girls called Arabella who work in art galleries, which isn't very encouraging either.

Agree that Susannah is a lovely name. Has anyone yet suggested Keziah? Is Bathsheba too fanciful?

Susannah is pretty

Arianna?

Genevieve can be shortened to Evie, Eve or Gennie.

I adore Miriam, I know only one and her nn is Miri.

i love your choices
Genevieve lovely

not keen on Alyssia or charlotte

Imogen?

Octavia would be brilliant!
But it's up to you and DH.
How about asking the other seven children and having a family vote?
