Ok so just when I thought we had finally agreed on a boy and girl name, DH has decided he doesn't love our girl choice anymore, with only 3.5ish weeks to go rolleyes.gif

We had decided on Ivy Raphaela which I was really happy with (still loved Ivy Juliet though!).

DH has decided he doesn't like Ivy much anymore which has been my favorite all along. His only suggestions are Maya (May-a) and Samari, neither of which I LOVE.
We can't seem to find a name that we BOTH love, so I was hoping for some suggestions that we might like. I can't help but feel there must be something out there and we just haven't found it yet!

DD is Lila Imogen (both names were the only names we could agree on so we've used all we had now laughing2.gif )

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Ivy totally rocks! Tell him you can't have a Lila and May-a - both end in an a sound.

What about Lila and Willow? Lila and Esme?

Such a shame - Ivy is a lovely name...

Would he agree to Isla or Iris? Both are very similar in style to Ivy, I think, but he may prefer them...

I agree with the PP who said that Lila and Maya sound too similar. I also think that Samari is too different in style to Lila to really work as a sibset.

How about Pearl?

Very good point grin.gif Although he really has no idea about things like that, he suggested Lila Maya for DD's name huh.gif LOL. Um, no.
