Replacement of Alice

Girl Names

[name]Hi[/name] everyone!

I posted earlier about our pregnancy and how to start finding names. Well, after some reading of lists and posts, it occurred to me that [name]Alice[/name] embodied all I wanted in a girl’s name. Husband liked it, it was sweet and old-fashioned and yet light-hearted.

SO, what’s the problem? Our last name is [name]Lewi[/name]$! [name]Alice[/name] is a no-go, as are names ending with S, starting with L, and most with an L inside it.

What do you think would be a name like [name]Alice[/name] for us. Other names I like all seem to have the accursed L, like [name]Stella[/name] and [name]Lucy[/name]. We also would like to honor a [name]MaryAnn[/name] and have been thinking of [name]Marie[/name] as a first name.

Thanks!
