[name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Beatrix[/name] are my favorites!

It’s a toss up for me between [name]Mabel[/name] & [name]Eloise[/name]…but DH has suggested [name]Fiona[/name].

[name]Beatrix[/name] is really the only one I love. But I can appreciate [name]Fiona[/name], too, and I think [name]Beatrix[/name] [name]Fiona[/name] would be a very sweet combo.

[name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Fiona[/name] are my favorites!

It was a touch choice for me between [name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Beatrix[/name]. [name]Beatrix[/name] won. [name]Fiona[/name] would be 3rd and [name]Mabel[/name] 4th.

[name]Fiona[/name]'s my favorite of the four

I vote [name]Beatrix[/name] with [name]Eloise[/name] 2nd! Great choices!

1 [name]Mabel[/name]
2 [name]Beatrix[/name]
3 [name]Eloise[/name]
4 [name]Fiona[/name]

You can’t go wrong with any of these names! :slight_smile:

Oh, so hard to choose! I think I’d rank them:

1 [name]Beatrix[/name] ([name]LOVE[/name]!)
2 [name]Mabel[/name] and [name]Eloise[/name] (I really couldn’t decide! I like them both very very much.)
3 [name]Fiona[/name] (I can appreciate this name, I suppose, but I’m not really a fan of it)

Wow, seriously good name choices up in here! And [name]Beatrix[/name] [name]Fiona[/name] is a fantastic combo, I don’t think I would have thought to put them together. [name]Love[/name]!

OK, very hard. Four great names. I voted [name]Mabel[/name], which seems to be the backrunner right now, and I’ll tell you why:

[name]Mabel[/name] is still outside the Top 1000 (more, coincidentally, on that tomorrow). It’s cute and stylish, but relatively unusual.

[name]Eloise[/name] I just happened to be looking at statistics on today, and it’s one of the fastest rising girls’ names of the past 5 years – up 500 places. so love, but really hopping. And there are SO many other [name]El[/name] names similarly hot.

[name]Beatrix[/name], I don’t know. I love love love [name]Bea[/name], but I find the [name]Beatrix[/name]/[name]Beatrice[/name] thing kind of annoying and can imagine that any [name]Beatrix[/name] (or [name]Beatrice[/name]) would too.

[name]Fiona[/name] is not as appealing to me as the others – too Shrek, and despite Shrek, I think a lot of people still can’t pronounce it.

After writing all that, I’m even more decidedly in favor of [name]Mabel[/name].

I would rank:
1.[name]Beatrix[/name]
2.[name]Fiona[/name] (very close second)
3.[name]Mabel[/name]
4.[name]Eloise[/name]

[name]Beatrix[/name] is definitely my favorite.

Such a tough choice! :slight_smile:
I think I’d rank them:

  1. [name]Mabel[/name]
  2. [name]Eloise[/name]
  3. [name]Fiona[/name]
  4. [name]Beatrix[/name]

I voted for [name]Fiona[/name], absolutely love it! [name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Mabel[/name] are also sweet.

[name]Fiona[/name]! :slight_smile: [name]One[/name] of my absolute favorites. I also like [name]Eloise[/name] a lot.

Such a difficult choice. They are all great names. I voted [name]Fiona[/name] in the end because even though it’s a bit Shrek, it is a princessy name for me. I see [name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Beatrix[/name] seem to be everywhere lately on the naming forums so seem more popular than they are and [name]Mabel[/name] is [name]Bruce[/name] [name]Willis[/name]’ new daughter :slight_smile:

In order:

[name]Fiona[/name]
[name]Beatrix[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Mabel[/name]

[name]Love[/name] all four! You really can’t go wrong. I’ve adored [name]Eloise[/name] for some time now, but [name]Mabel[/name] has been growing on me quite a bit lately. After those two, I think [name]Fiona[/name] is gorgeous, just slightly less usable for some reason. Perhaps I just associate it with princesses. Regardless, it’s stunning! [name]Beatrix[/name] would be my last choice, but that’s only because of stiff competition–it’s still a lovely name!
