Looking for an under used pretty girls name?

[alfiemama]

Just as the title says really.
We've chosen Patrick with everyone on heres help, think its a lovely underused traditional name.
Now we are trying to find the equivalent for a girl.

But.... needs to go with ds's Alfie and Archie and a surname of one syllable beginning with C (so unfortunately Rose is out). I would also like something that is adaptable, so you can have a cute name (maybe nn) or a serious name when older.

I don't want much I know

Any help would be most appreciated.

Roseanna
Daisy
Elise ??

I must say that Evie is a beautiful name. There's unlikely to be more than say 1 more in the class, maybe not even that, and would that be so terrible? Evelyn is also an unusual origin for it, and very under used. Evelyn Rosemary is a name to dream about IMO.

Ooh that sounds nice choosyfloosy.
It is a pretty name and maybe thats why I can't find another name we like. My brother kind of pinched ours as we always had Evie Rose in mind (talking 3 years ago now) and he called his lo Ava Rose, so my concern was very similar, but the Evelyn would get passed this awkwardness.

Dizzydixies, we are in the North.

Evelyn is lovely
am partial to Evangeline too

I love Evangeline, hubby says no, a step too far for him

Evelina

once again with regional variations thesecondcoming it might NOT be

alfiemama - Evelyn seems the perfect compromise then

I suppose there was only one of each name . That does put me off slightly.

Thanks Sapell, not heard of that one and very pretty, will run that past him in doors.

Edith Abigail Rose?

Marguerite: nn = Rita, Daisy

Taos

Awww Annie Rose - guaranteed to have doting Grans/Mums put their heads on one side and smile warmly at that name

Charlotte
Daisy
Elspeth

Nicole

On my list if Im ever lucky enough to have another baby, let alone a girl are:

Sophie
Laura
Amelie
Lois
Chloe
Mollie
Alex(andra)

I like Elspeth with Elsie for nn- sort of combines the under used traditional with a more common nickname.

BTW I'll be watching this thread as it has a great selection of names on it for when it comes time to choose a name for ours

i am biased twords nicole as dd1 name.

also in use in this house

Lauren
Jade
Serena
Dixie
Sophie
Emily
