Second thoughts

We are expecting a girl in early [name_u]January[/name_u] and are having trouble deciding on a name. All of my other kids have been born early so she could pretty much come any day now. This is stressing me out hugely. I thought we had decided on [name_f]Ottoline[/name_f] but I am having second thoughts that maybe it is too clunky and unusual? I’m just not sure either way. I recently had dream that I named her [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] which I like but had never been on my list. Other names I have been considering recently include [name_f]Cressida[/name_f], [name_f]Liesel[/name_f], [name_f]Noemi[/name_f] and [name_f]Zelie[/name_f]. So your thoughts would be appreciated!

[name_f]Ottoline[/name_f]
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f]
[name_f]Cressida[/name_f]
[name_f]Liesel[/name_f]
[name_f]Noemi[/name_f]
[name_f]Zelie[/name_f]

Sibs are in my signature.

I love [name_f]Cressida[/name_f] & [name_f]Liesel[/name_f]. [name_f]Cressida[/name_f] [name_f]Noemi[/name_f] or [name_f]Liesel[/name_f] [name_f]Ottoline[/name_f] (or [name_f]Marigold[/name_f]).

All the names on your list are great names and will work with your other children’s names. [name_f]Ottoline[/name_f] is lovely, I do not see it as clunky, but it certainly not common. I personally love to include names that come to me in dreams, I use them in the middle. [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] is one of my favorite names.
[name_m]Don[/name_m]'t stress. You might have to meet this little one and let her pick the name.

[name_f]Liesel[/name_f] or [name_f]Noemi[/name_f] would work best with [name_f]Isla[/name_f] and [name_f]Freya[/name_f].

That said, what I like about [name_f]Ottoline[/name_f] is that she’s clunky and unusual :).

I like [name_f]Noemi[/name_f] with your other daughters’ names.

Loving [name_f]Ottoline[/name_f] (and [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f]) and [name_f]Cressida[/name_f]. I also like the similar Casilda and [name_f]Odette[/name_f].

[name_f]Ottoline[/name_f] - lovely, I like clunky names, but this one is also sleek
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f] - cute
[name_f]Cressida[/name_f] - my favorite of your list

I don’t like the rest.

[name_f]Love[/name_f] seeing [name_f]Liesel[/name_f] on your list! It’s been a ‘crush’ of mine for many years! Curious - are you pronouncing [name_f]Ottoline[/name_f] -[name_f]LINE[/name_f] or -LEEN? I like it either way, and it’s my second favorite on your list. Your other options are great as well…I like them all! (Not into [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] so much, though!)

Guess I’m not too much help!

Thanks so much for all of the replies! It helps!

@aggielou - we are using the LEEN pronunciation.
