elegant girls names

[DessieLou]

My SIL has just found out she is having a girl but is really stuck for names. They want something elegant that will suit dd at all ages and something that isn't overly popular/trendy. Some names she likes but can't use are...

Madeleine
Caroline
Susannah
Francesca
Charlotte
Annabelle

Any suggestions for her? Thanks.

[DessieLou]

forgot to say, middle name will be Anne (family name) or Ruth if Anne doesn't sound right. Ta.

Alice
Juliet

A name particularly close to my heart is Penelope. Penelope Ruth sounds nice

[DessieLou]

Ooooh, Penelope Ruth is good...may steal that for myself!

[Bagofmashings]

Alexandra Ruth
Emily Anne

[DessieLou]

Alexandra is another one she loves but her sister has an Alexander. You're definately on the right lines though. Gabriella is currently the only one on the maybe list!

Constance - perhaps with the nickname Coco

We have a Jennifer Grace, not sure whether you'd class it as elegant but she was the only Jennifer they had on the list when we registered her birth so it seems not so mainstream anymore.
