   PJ. As in PJ Harvey. Most amazing female artist EVER. What was that? 'Polly'? Oh shut up...

   If one of my boys had been a girl then they would have been Amy Ffion. I also like Daisy but it didn't quite sound right with my sir name (Woods).

   Keith.

   Freya is very nice, but too much like Fraser which you already have.

   What about Olivia or Jordana?

   Gets lots of positive comments.
   Little one is Edith. Ditto.

   Don't know why but I've always loved Jenny as a girls name.
   Kim is nice and short, means 'golden' in Chinese, according to a half-Chinese (ex) girlfriend of mine, who is very beautiful as well.

   Charlotte, shortened to Lottie maybe, then she will have a choice when she's older.

    Any flower names tend to be nice.

    Lanicera caprifolium?

    Lilac vulgaris?

    whatever floats your boat DD

    Freya was my favourite until the missus insisted on Poppy for our daughter.

    Take a look at your great grandmothers - they had some great names back then. It helps connect your kid to their heritage.

    Darcy was quite popular the last time we did this. Can't help thinking someone must be turning people off it

    Ours is Grace Harriet; on "the list" if we have another are Edie/Evie/Eve, Hazel, Violet, Audrey(!) for girls...

    Like epicyclo said - check great grandmothers and such; Grace Harriet is a family name in my Dads family; we dropped the "Darling" that was also in there though!

    We know of several other Grace's too - it is fairly popular at the moment.

    And being in Australia - land of Anglicised phonetics! - we decided to avoid the Irish names from my wife's family a la the Siobhan and Niamh comments above.

    Aoife? I like it as a girls name. Pronounced Efa (best I can think
    of)

    Victoria or Elizabeth.

    Alternatively if you want something a bit more "modern" then try ...

    Psilocybin
    Galerina
    Mycena
    Nada
    Cuba, China ... England may do too.
    Tangerine, Apple ... watermelon?
    Virginia ... errrmmm ...
    Princess Wawa ...

    A nice range of predictably middle class name types there. :o)

    It is well worth checking the names lists though as our daughter has 4 Izzy's and 4 Evies in her class.

    We went with Meg in the end though registered Megan on the birth certificate, far better to use the full name when you are shouting at them

    We named our daughter Rose when she popped out 49 hours ago. Named after her Great Grandma Rosalie.

    congrats Davy, was going to say Rose anyway

    failing that, how about Eris?

    Ours is Samantha Petra, my grandmother was Petranella, but the SO wasn't having that.

    Second the advice of checking the most popular lists, we deliberately chose a name that wasn't on any of the lists.

    Bethan Alice
    Esther Rose and last but not least

    We wanted a "proper" English name that wasn't going to be overly common. Also wanted to make sure any shortening of the name was ok...

    Rosemary is now 7 months and no regrets!

    Can be shortened to Rose or Rosie as the whim takes her later in life...

    OP: we went for "Annabelle" - offers her a nice bit of variety for nicknames in the future (Anna, Ann, Bella, Belle, Belly) and then we gave her the same middle name as my wife, which only seemed fair since she had my last name

    Kim is nice and short, means 'golden' in Chinese

    Hmm What is Chinese for "shower"?

    Can't beat olivia

    Yes you can, but I'll call social services if you do. (bless! very cute BTW)

    I love older names - Maisie and Grace are my favourites at the moment.

    We called our little boy (now 20 months old) Stanley - his great great great uncle Stanley is currently Europe's oldest man!
