Hi Ladies, I'm in my final trimester and struggling to find a name for our second daughter. Big sis is called Elodie and we have a relatively plain English surname. We're looking for something a bit unusual/unique and classy. What do you prefer from the four names above? Or any new suggestions..... Thanks!

Georgia is lovely and was on our shortlist.

I like Alana and Darcey but not love them. Hate Tabitha, sorry. One of those names that makes me cringe.

Georgia, Alana and Darcy are all very nice, but I don't like Tabitha.

Georgia or Alana for me.

Probably Alana.

Tabitha by far the nicest IMO. Goes well with Elodie.

Tabitha. I'd have loved to call one of our 3DDs that, but at the time DMs best friend had a cat called that, so I wasn't "allowed". Wish I'd stuck to my guns!

I love Georgia with Elodie and Darby is nice too. How about Sylvia?

What about Sylvie? I'm not mad keen on the names - Tabitha is probably the nicest one imo, but that's just my opinion.

If it makes a difference, I know 4 Darceys under a year. Now popular names don't bother me, all my kids have popular names but you did mention in your op wanting something a bit unique.

Thanks! I think Georgia is the front runner at the moment. I know that Darcy is becoming increasingly popular and just wondered if Georgia is too? We live in Surrey btw.

I know you're not supposed to say 'chavvy' on MN but Darcy, Georgia, & Alana scream it to me, especially Darcy.

Love Elodie though Blush

Have you considered Georgina? I prefer it to Georgia.

Tabitha is my favourite from your list. Here's some more suggestions

Georgie
Ramona
Claudia
Marcia
Marnie

I have a Darcy & would say avoid it if you want something different!
How about Marnie?

I like Georgia best, then Alana (though not sure Elodie and Alana go that well, they're a bit too similar for me with the l's).

I'm in your neck of the woods and haven't come across any Georgias in any baby groups in the last year or so, and I've been to quite a few!
