OK ladies, would be grateful for some feedback on the following names. If you could put them in order of preference and add any comments.

Maia (My-uh)
Lydia
Eva
Mila (Me-la)
Anya
Freya
Phoebe
Lauren (DP's choice, I'm not so keen)

PHEW! Oh and if you have any other suggestions, that'd be fab! Btw, I don't like 'poncey' names or 'chavvy' names so if we could stay away from them please. Thanks!

More Love for Lydia.

Not keen on the rest.

Like Anna and Julia.

I like Maia and Eva.

I also have to stick up for Lauren - it's my name (my parents picked it before it was popular - and well before Little Britain!) and I have always liked it. It's feminine without being overly girly or cutesy. Shame it got so overused at one point.

Maia (My-uh)
Lydia
Eva
Mila (Me-la)
Anya
Freya
Phoebe
Lauren (DP's choice, I'm not so keen)

In order, I like
Mila -- gorgeous and unusual
Eva -- really nice, not the ubiquitous Evie
Lydia -- Lovely
Lauren -- Very nice, but I like Laurel a lot more
Clara and Anna -- love them both

Anya, Freya, Phoebe, Maia - all too 'fashion statement' imo.
