    I like Emily & Grace or Grace & Hope the best, don't like Honor personally. Congratulations on the pregnancy! The only thing i'd consider is as someone else says, if a Grace ends up a tomboy or not too graceful, my Mum wanted to name me Heidi & thank goddddd she got a no from my Dad, it'd be the worst name possible for me!

    I think you've named most of DD's school year there, glad to say DD is NOT on that list!

    I like Emily & Grace

    I wanted to call my daughter Emily Grace, however our surname begins with a G and her initials would have been EGG, so we dropped Grace for something else.

    My daughter's a Grace (we do call her Gracie too) - her middle name is Elizabeth...another traditional name that I love. Let us know what names you decide! We were lucky that we always knew we'd have the name Grace (although did briefly toy with the idea of Elizabeth Grace..)

    With DS2 we had decided on a couple of names...but when he was born, we just decided he was something different altogether, the other names just didn't 'suit.':rotfl:

  • I love all the old fashoined names on this thread. My daughter is Seren Eliza. She's the only Seren at nursery, compared to when my son Joshua started, he was one of four Joshuas!

    my youngest gd is called Grace-Ann, but more commonly known as Griz (short for Grizzleass!)
    and a less graceful child would be hard to imagine!
    But I do love oldfashioned names!
    some of my favourites - culled from my family history are
    Ellen
    Eliza
    Emily
    Letitia
    Caroline
    Lydia
    and there were a multitude of Mary-Annes!
    my own nans name was Phyllis shortened to Phyl. as she was such a lovely person (and a great beauty in her youth) I love the name to bits and wish my mum had given me that name and not her second name!
