Oh wow. This was so hard because I love them all! I love the rhythm of [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f], but [name_f]Willow[/name_f] and [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] have those pretty matching O- sounds. I voted for [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] in the end, but for me it’s a tie between [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] and [name_f]Willow[/name_f].
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] shares a lot of the same reasons [name_f]Liv[/name_f] worked so well. In fact, even though it’s not particularly intuitive, [name_f]Liv[/name_f] could easily be a nickname for [name_f]Violet[/name_f]. I think it’s a perfect alternative.
Thank you, @geeknamezyo - I appreciate all your responses!! I can’t believe how tough this is - I love them all so much. Also - love the names in your sig (especially [name_f]Viola[/name_f] [name_f]Mireille[/name_f] and [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] [name_u]Vale[/name_u]!) You have gorgeous taste 
I like the sound and flow of [name_f]Willow[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]. It’s a charming combo. [name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f].
While I adore [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] a smidge more, I think [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] flows the best. I think it is both sweet and spunky.
I went with my first instinct, [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]. Very pretty and elegant!
I do also love the name [name_f]Willow[/name_f] but just feel that [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] sound better together. I think because of the hard ‘C’ at the beginning of [name_f]Cosima[/name_f], you need a slightly stronger first name. Based on that I think it’s between [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] and [name_f]Violet[/name_f] would definitely be my favourite between both these names.
I love hearing all your thoughts!! This is really helping. I think I have the best shot at [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Willow[/name_f] with DH, so that is where I am leaning. He really likes [name_f]Liv[/name_f] and [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u], and I think [name_f]Violet[/name_f] is similar to [name_f]Liv[/name_f] (sorta!) and [name_f]Willow[/name_f] has the same kind of soft vibe like [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u].
I was thinking [name_f]Liv[/name_f] could easily be a nickname for [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and I personally love both [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u] and [name_f]Willow[/name_f] (they’re on my list!) so my guess is your DH will like them! 
I voted [name_f]Willow[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]. But, it was close with [name_f]Violet[/name_f]. Both lovely combos.
Oh no, [name_f]Liv[/name_f]! But I hear you, it is a short, succinct name and if you’re feeling something more flowy for this baby then you’ve got some lovely options there.
Personally, I’m not wild about first-middle combos which both end in -a, so while I like [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] and [name_f]Fiona[/name_f], I don’t really like them with [name_f]Cosima[/name_f].
[name_f]Willow[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] and [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] are both amazing, though, and they’re my favourite first names of the bunch anyway. I voted [name_f]Willow[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] because it just feels so graceful and delicate, yet strong, and I think the flow is beautiful. [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] is gorgeous though and I agree that you could even use [name_f]Liv[/name_f] as a nickname for [name_f]Violet[/name_f] at a push.
@katinka - I know! I do love [name_f]Liv[/name_f], but I already feel like it isn’t the right name for her. It’s such a weird feeling! But maybe the next girl 
Update - DH really likes [name_f]Willow[/name_f]! I think that may be our front-runner. We’re gonna “test it out” see how we feel saying it and go from there
I’m torn between [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] and [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f]
I love both [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Willow[/name_f], and both good with [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]. I ended up voting for [name_f]Violet[/name_f] which just has the edge for me. I love the suggestion of using [name_f]Liv[/name_f] as a nickname for [name_f]Violet[/name_f].
Thank you so much 
I’m a big fan of your taste as well. Excited to see what you choose!
Well I adore [name_f]Liv[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f], but between these it’s between [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] and [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] for me. I love [name_f]Fiona[/name_f], but don’t love the flow of [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]… and I am not a fan of the repeated O’s with [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] and especially [name_f]Willow[/name_f].
Torn between [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] and [name_f]Violet[/name_f]! I prefer [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] but [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] looks so pretty on paper. Reminiscent of [name_f]Liv[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f].
I guess my vote goes to [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] though. Good luck!
It is weird! I’ve had the same with this little one. I love boys’ names generally and there are at least three or four names which are my joint favourites on paper and I’d use in a heartbeat, but one just is his name. Has been from the start. I thought I’d struggle to narrow down but it just hasn’t been an issue; it was the same with my daughter. Funnily enough, both pregnancies we’ve struggled to settle on a name for the other gender!
[name_f]Willow[/name_f] [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] is truly stunning. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] it feels right for you guys when you start trying it out.
I love [name_f]Willow[/name_f] and [name_f]Violet[/name_f] with [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]! Good luck!
