Need help with girl names

Anonymous wrote:We prefer classic names. Older siblings are Caroline, Elizabeth (Eliza), and Jane. We're finding it really hard to pick a name that hasn't already been used by one of our siblings or very close friends. We like: Katherine, Emma, Grace, Sophie, and Charlotte but they're all being used by a sibling or close friend whom we see all the time.

I like Lydia but Dh is meh on it. Dh also has a weird thing about not wanting the girls to have names that start with the same first letter. So we couldn't have an Eliza and an Eleanor, for instance. He thinks they sound too similar.

Any help?

Congrats! How about Frances, nn Frankie, Alice, Alexandra, Sophia instead of Sophie, Audrey, Beatrice

I wouldn't do Lydia with an Elizabeth and Jane already in the mix! She's the flighty sister in Pride & Prejudice, remember?

Margaret, Victoria, Beatrice, Mary, Jacqueline

I'm an Elizabeth and I always thought Lydia was a nickname for Elizabeth. Though I realize people use it as a stand alone.

For that reason, I wouldn't use it.

You've got Jane, go with Sara or Mary.

Don't know why, but the first name came to mind was Madeleine.

My mom was Adeline. Her sisters were Caroline and Louise. Go for Adeline!
