Baby girl is due at the end of August and we still haven’t decided on her name. My husband loves Olive and, while I do too, I’m also starting to love Iris. My only concern is that Iris doesn’t really have any good nicknames. Which would you choose- Olive or Iris? Big brother is James.
I love Iris. Doesn't need a nickname! But you will find sometimes nicknames have nothing to do with their actual name anyway. We call our oldest (Natalie) Cakes. I vote Iris!
Why decide now? Bring both names with you to delivery, meet her and decide then. Not everything has to be done before birth. We did and sure glad that we did as our top contender didn't fit her personality and it just didn't feel right after meeting her, so our second choice was so much better after meeting her.

Olive will always be a food
Olive is always a food and a color to me, too. And I have to admit, as a name it's just always sounded a bit homely to me.
