I need a name for my LO.........

[UCM]

I was stuck on Pippa for yonks but have gone off it. Then latched on to Harriet but we live in Essex so poor child will be called 'Arriet'. Then liked Verity but Soapstar Superstar arrived on our screens.

I don't want anything in the Govt top 100 but want an old fashioned name, not made up...thats really unusual

see top 100 here

My surname is similar to Gilbert.

Can anyone help????

Think Martha may get v popular now though

Estelle or Estella

Constance, Connie
Katrina, Catriona
Christina

Catriona - my favourite girls name !!

Roisin
Josephine
Claudia
Kezia
Cordelia
Margeurite
Heather
Imogen
Felicity
Phillipa

UCM, so does she have a name yet?

because then we could get to work on the second name!

And i know a lovely little girl called Lorelei - even though she was a siren on the Rhine or something !!

Stella is lovely IMHO DD1's middle name

Henrietta, Natasha, Meredith, Margaret

Lilly

Loni

Anyone said Ottoline?
Sidonie?
Hester?

Barbara - an unfashionable 70s name I know, but quite nice too.

The likelyhood of the name is that it will be something off of this thread yes

Claire, Clara
Helen, Helena
Marianne
Juliet, Juliette

Have you seen one you like yet UCM?

Not read the whole thread - The Times has a free names book tomorrow though

Eliza

Simone, Sonia, Lynley, Theodora, Avril, Lucy, Stephanie, Danielle/ Daniella, Michaela (sp?), Kimberley

When are you due UCM? - we'll be watching out for the birth announcement!

Ms Shadenfreude - I love all of those names! My dd's first and second name have cropped up several times too.
I think some of these names like Esme, Edie, Erin, Martha, Orla and Clara, while really very beautiful, are already pretty popular. At least, they are round my way!

barbara
evelyn
ellen
muriel

I am due on 24th Jan. But unfortunately broke my ankle yesterday so currently babys name is 'please don't arrive until I at least get a cast on'. Actually I might call her Graham after the lovely nurse who helped me yesterday

Wanted to add thank you for the lovely suggestions. I am going to use one of them, not sure which at the moment.

Also thanks Jan for linking those sites. They were fascinating and real food for thought.
