My husband and I aren't agreeing on names for our little one and wondered if you would be able to rank these names in order of preference please. Thanks so much.
I think Polly is an adorable nn. Traditionally, it is a nn for Mary, but you could probably use it for anything with a strong long o sound and a P and an L. Some ideas for Polly other than Mary: Apollnia, Apolline, Polina, Paula, Penelope, Calliope.
TTC#3 since Nov 2020 at ages 35 & 39 TTC#1 - 2 IVF cycles, 4 transfers, 2 miscarriages (LC age 4) TTC#2 - a very welcome surprise without intervention (LC age 2)
My husband and I aren't agreeing on names for our little one and wondered if you would be able to rank these names in order of preference please. Thanks so much.
Polly
Cecilia
Madeleine
Willow
Matilda
Lily
Norah
Florence.
Esther
Eleanor.
Pretty sure this Lo's name is going to be Eleanor (NN Nellie/Nell), so that is my favorite
I also love Matilda
I like Willow
I'm not crazy about the others. Lily is overdone. Madeleine falls in line with other Maddie names and I'm kind of sick of them. I can't get behind Polly - it is weird to me and I can only think of Polly wants a cracker. Never have been a fan of Cecilia or Norah. Florence and Esther still sound too old to me.
1. Cecilia
2. Madeleline
3. Lilly
4. Eleanor
5. Esther
6. Florence
7. Matilda
8. Norah
don't like the rest, sorry.
- Polly is a nickname to me.
- Willow is not the same style as other names on list
TTC #1 for over 5 years - too many to count IF treatments (tried everything and anything), repeat miscarriages.
Finally, Sticky Success!! B/G Twins arrived 2011.

Lol I hadn't thought of that. Thank you. I'll avoid that.
