I love that style of name. But, apart from a few obvious ones, I can't find any I really, really love...so would like some suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I think simple is elegant to for example Hannah or Sophia

Thanks everyone.

Francesca is the name of SIL, and although I love her very much, we aren't going to use it. I love the name though Sad

Susannah has been used for DTD1 (other girls names we can't use are Alice, Isobel or variants of, Eleanor, Hope and Isla, as these are names we've used/middle names we've used). Sorry for drip feeding Blush

We love Charlotte, Romilly, Josephine, Imogen, Juliet, Abigail, Catherine, Lucy, Phoebe, Constance, Georgiana, Hannah and Emily so far. Thanks again!

Love these names. I would add Elizabeth as an older choice and Claudia for a slightly edgier but still classic name.
