All gorgeous.
Only thing I would say is that Eva is very popular now.

beansprout · 18/11/2007 21:22

Eva is lovely. I wouldn't go with Luna as the teasing potential is too great, but the others are lovely too.

sweetkitty · 18/11/2007 21:22

Eden or Eva

I love Eden but wouldn't go with our surname.

chankins · 18/11/2007 21:22

I like Iris and Eden best. Different, and really pretty.

moopymoo · 18/11/2007 21:23

Like Eva and Iris.
Have been 'helping' my sis with girls names recently and she has rejected all my ideas so i will try them on you
Harriet
Alexandra
Laura
Hannah

actually like iris best of all those.

Hekete · 18/11/2007 21:24

I like Iris.

Eden is a boy's name.

Sparkletastic · 18/11/2007 21:24

Iris is lovely and unusual without being too weirdy

silkcushion · 18/11/2007 21:25

Iris is very pretty

janeite · 18/11/2007 21:29

I like Eden and Eva. Luna has too much of a Harry Potter association now I think and I'm afraid I don't like Iris at all. I like Moopymoo's suggestion of Harriet though - I wanted a Harriet but dp didn't like it.

I like Eden even more, the more I consider it.

Frizbe · 18/11/2007 21:29

I like Eva, Iris is ok

How about

Milly
Grace
Romily
Esther

Iona

Sidge · 18/11/2007 21:32

Oh I like Esme too.

EmZyFive · 18/11/2007 21:32

hekete, i have a friend called eden who is a boy

Nanoon · 18/11/2007 21:35

ooo have just looked up Eden and yes it is in the boys section of a book - does that matter do you think?

I know what you mean about Eva being popular which is our main concern with it as DS's (3)(name is quite unusual and i love the fact that there aren't that many around.

My dd is called Freya - the Norse godess of love and where the word Friday is derived from. (She was born on a Friday!)

hayCHingleBells · 18/11/2007 21:42

I like Eden alot. The others are not for me.

My fav girls names are;
Layla
Erin
Olivia
Esme
Grace

I didnt know what to call dd1 (we had a list but no real favorite amongst them, even up until she was born!
As soon as she was born we knew which name from the list to choose.

janeite · 18/11/2007 21:43

Ooh Esther and Esme are both lovely.
