Girl name help!

Ms. Figgie

We are 4 weeks out from having a new baby and cannot figure out "the name." We're team green and have already decided on a boy name but are having such a tough time with girls names. We like old-fashioned names. We have tossed around Beatrix, Louisa, Mae, Hazel, Clementine, and about a million others. My husband just told me that he is not "in love" with any of these. I really need him to be 100% on board with whatever name--for instance he totally loves Bea but does not love Beatrix. He also loves Mae but I'm not 100% sold on it being a first name. Our daughter is named Frances, which we both love--it's old-fashioned and somehow still spunky. Any thoughts or suggestions would be super appreciated!

What about Matilda with the nn Mae?

Other suggestions: Camilla, Sabrina, Eleanor, Laurel, Eloise

I also love Matilda, what about Ramona?  I see that as kind of spunky and old-fashioned.  Harriett and Penelope would be my other suggestions.

I love Bea too!  I like it with Beatrice, but my hairdresser uses it as a nickname for Belinda.  

Other ideas:  Camille, Teresa (Tess), Virginia (Ginny), Marianne (Mae)

Would he like Beatrice better? I am not a fan of the hard "x" sound.

I love Ramona but he hates it. And as for Beatrice, it is definitely more traditional but we both agree we like Beatrix better than Beatrice.
