dh loves
felicity

i like
keziah
gladys
cecily
serenity
ariel
esther considered but as our surname starts with west sounds like a shipping forecast priscilla also mentioned but again not sure
we both quite like martha and mathilda but think they might be too popular wondering about double barelling eg martha -jane martha- rose etc but not sure on a middle name that would go with martha or mathilda

HELP as im getting desperate and spending too many sleepless nights worrying about this

mathnxiety i also love kezia but how exactly do you pronounce it however dh wont even think about it
like martha but keep thinking of martha monkey in noddy
beinning to agree witheveryone that gladys is too old and lso teasing with glad ass
might be a problem
love mathilda but concerned it might be too popular

Kezia/h is pronounced: Kez-ee-uh (the kez bit rhyming with fez).

The Keziahs that I know (2 in total) both pronounce it KEE-zeah (like easier). Pity your Dh won't hear of it -- I think it's a great name.

My last 3 babies were all going to be Martha Nell - but they all came out with dangly bits

Excellent taste - I see you also have a Gabriel, like me. I'm just a teeny bit jealous too - I have 6 (3 of each) but think that we won't manage a 7th....

My Martha has Neve as her middle name (purely spelt like that because ds chose it)
Not very popular here.
I also like Grace but my dd1 has that for her middle name.
