Please help me choose from my list of g names - DH not helping at all!

[BellaBalloon]

Sylvie
Mabel
Nell
Emmeline
Clementine

Please feel free to add others

Love them all, sorry no help here...

My favourite would be Clementine, if pushed.
I also love Helena.

like them all but my absolute faves are:

Sylvie (or sylvia?)
Emmeline

What gorgeous names you have chosen! I think my favourites are Nell and Sylvie

In order, I like:
Nell
Sylvie
Emmeline
Clementine
Mabel

Can't choose they are all so nice, if pushed would say Mabel.

They are all really nice, but I think I would have to pick Emmeline! I think it's classic, and unusual but not too 'out there'. Also you have quite a few nickname possibilities if you wanted to shorten it occasionally. Do you have a middle name picked?

They are all nice, except Mabel.

Nell is the only one I like.

I really like Mabel, it's unusual too. I also like Sylvie and Emmeline but not keen on Nell or Clementine.

Nell - but I'm biased, that's my DD's name!

Sylvie. It's a lovely name for all stages of womanhood: sweet and girly when wee, but can be sexy, cool and collected for when she's older.
Mabel one of the old-fashioned names that just doesn't do it for me. Makes me think of flowery aprons and big bosoms.

Thanks everyone. Am so chuffed that they have been mainly well received! I can't test them out on RL peeps because did that early on in the pregnancy and got all sorts of responses that I did not want.

DH has just shortlisted to Clementine or perhaps Clemency
Nell
Mabel

I think I ditch Mabel because I don't think I would want to be 30 and called Mabel although it's a very sweet name of a kid imo.

I have history and connections with Emmeline and love it for that but has just been vetoed...

Clementine, Nell and Sylvie are all gorgeous

we considered clementine nn Cleo
Sylvanna nn Sylvie
and Penelope nn Nell for DD3

incandescent i totally agree with you on the Sylvie front. i think it's sweet for a little one and then sexy for an older one. Sadly DH just isn't feeling it.

Sylvie as is and Nell if it's short for Helen.

dizzy may I say you have excellent taste

thank you BellaBalloon - we didn't go with any of those however but still happy with the one we did choose!! we have 3 dds all with 3 names each

still an option for DD4 if that ever happens

I only like Sylvie and Mabel from that list, or Nell if it's nn for Helen.

I like them all. Sylvie/Sylvia is becoming more popular now, but only because it is so lovely, though I prefer Sylvie out of the 2.

I am liking Clementine more and more, I really like Clem as a NN.

Clementine is beautiful!

OOOh Mabel is my all time fave but vetoed by DH name

To be fair it sounds a bit odd with our surname.

I also like Emmeline more because of associations.

Clementine is adorable,and it isn't heard often. vry pretty name

Clemency or Mabel, for me. Or Emmeline if you can reverse the veto!

Hi Bella

Love Emmeline and Sylvie and you are the one giving birth so have lots of leverage with your DP!

Don't like Mabel - bit too matronly...

Thanks Blue - Mabel has been shelved
