Holly, Lucy, or Sophie

Hello everyone. My daughter is due to arrive next week and my husband and I still haven’t decided on a name although we’ve narrowed things down to a few contenders. Our top three choices are:

  • [name_f]Holly[/name_f]
  • [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
  • [name_f]Sophie[/name_f]

Which do you prefer and why? I’m open to other suggestions. Thank you in advance!

Omg I love all 3! All 3 are solid well known names. My favourite of those 3 is [name_f]Sophie[/name_f], but you can’t go wrong whichever you pick.

All three of your names are stunning, and favourites of mine, but lately I’ve been preferring [name_f]Holly[/name_f], as it’s much more uncommon than [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] and [name_f]Sophie[/name_f], which I hear a lot in my area.

[name_f]Sophie[/name_f] is my favorite! But I like all three.

All three are lovely but I think I like [name_f]Holly[/name_f] best. It’s the one I don’t hear to often and it has a sweet, strongness to it

Definitely [name_f]Holly[/name_f]! It’s so sweet and pretty but I can also imagine it on a grown woman just fine. Plus it’s more unique than [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] and [name_f]Sophie[/name_f], so she’d stand out more without her name being weird at all.

I do think [name_f]Holly[/name_f] in particular would be a lovely idea for an (almost) ‘[name_u]Christmas[/name_u] born baby’. I also like that it is a little less common than [name_f]Sophie[/name_f] & [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], so she’d not meet quite as many people her age with her name throughout her life.

[name_f]Sophie[/name_f] & [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] are both very sweet, but so very common which does dull their lustre a little for me.

Overall though, you really can’t go wrong with any of the three - they’re all lovely little names.

[name_f]Holly[/name_f] is my favorite. It’s the least popular, it’s gorgeous and perfect for the time she’ll be born.

I prefer [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]

[name_f]Holly[/name_f]! You are having a [name_u]Christmas[/name_u] baby its totally appropriate. Plus you never hear children called [name_f]Holly[/name_f] anymore!

I love [name_f]Holly[/name_f]! [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] is cute but I have a hard time picturing it on an adult and [name_f]Sophie[/name_f]/[name_f]Sophia[/name_f] is very common where I live.

I love [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]! Timeless, classic, spunky, and cosmopolitan but not ubiquitous. [name_f]Holly[/name_f] would be my second choice, but it appeals to me a bit less because many of my peers have that name.

[name_f]Holly[/name_f] is beautiful, Christmasy and wintry :slight_smile:

You should name her [name_f]Holly[/name_f] because she’ll be an almost [name_u]Christmas[/name_u] baby. [name_f]Sophie[/name_f] is too childish for me, I personally prefer [name_f]Sophia[/name_f]. [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] is just too popular.

I absolutely adore [name_f]Holly[/name_f]! Vintage and ready for a comeback!

[name_f]Holly[/name_f], for sure.
