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????

I love Isobel,Agnes,Elinor,Rose,May,Ria,also like Roxie and Tiger if you are a bit more rock n roll!

I think Thea is lovely.
For unusual but classic names I also like Aurelia, Nina, Marina, Atalanta. I also love the simplicity of Anna and it is surprisingly little-used (I like the Spanish spelling Ana as well). I also think Virginia is a very cool and classic name - very sort of Katherine Hepburn-ish. So silly that people don't use it any more, that would be up there on my list if I was you.

I have nieces called Venetia and Laetitia (but she is "Tish" for short!) which probably fit into your categories too...

BTW don't use Honor Martha Evie Esme Flora FLorence if you want to be the only one - there are hundreds of them around our way!

PPH, just catching up and although Anna is a lovely name I live in Essex and everyone would say Oh is her name Hannah?? LOL

Dulcie,Dorothy,Marjorie
