Hay there! So I'm searching and searching and I still just can't find the right name. We've toyed with like so many names like Shiloh (its a girl), Clementine, Zelda and now we are thinking Seraphine. The middle name has to be Lucia because its a name passed down. Cheers!

Thanks for your inquiry. I have gathered a couple of little gems that I think capture the no frills, classically rare style I saw in your other names. Good luck with your pregnancy and hope you like the names. Remember to tell us what you think?!?
Ottilie - O-til-lie is of french origin. I have been hearing this one alot lately and I think I quite like it.
Beatrix - Trixe, Bea, Trix, Bee, the nicknames are endless. Beatrix Lucia sounds just adorable!
Lavender - Whenever I heard this I think of Mrs Lavender Irving from the Anne of Green Gables Series.
Portia - Shakespearean names are pretty cool I reckon and this ones a fave of Laura's.
Cordelia - I have loved this since Anne of Green Gables. Same vibe as Clementine and Seraphine
Iolanthe - Strong, Classic, no frills. If you like Xanthe but find it a bit too made up this is perfect.
Zephyrine - Meaning west wind and originating in Greece. This is a name that is bound to stand out. Pronounced Zef-r-ine.
Olive - Another no fuss little name. A version of the highly regarded Olivia and recently used by Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen.

sorry about my late reply but thankyou all for your suggestions. I think Tabitha Lucia is quite cute and i loved bewitched as a child but my partner has said no becuase it reminds him of a cat.
Here are the finalists
Iolanthe Lucia
Lavender Lucia
Portia Lucia
Penelope Lucia
I'm not a big fan of Olive because though cute its used so much due to Isla fisher. I would love all your input though in choosing the final name.
Thanks a million :D
My personal favourite from your list is Iolanthe Lucinda.
However, I do like the suggestion Corneila Lucinda as well.
I'm glad that people like Zephyrine as well. She is inspiringly quirky. I didn't expect that people would warm to her.
Good luck with the names.
Tell us what you decide upon.
Well we have made a decision and have incorportated 3 names. we decided on Iolanthe Lucia Maud. We never were going to have 3 names but was looking through Lola's comment late last week and Maud struck me as quite cute and husband agreed with be so Iolanthe Lucia Maud. I love iolanthe with its meaning of violets and just the sound of how it, how its pronounced. What do you think. I hope you all like it :D :D
Iolanthe Lucia Maud is completely beautiful! I just happened to pop back here to see if you'd made a decision. I'm glad I was of some help. Beautiful! :)
