DP and I are trying to decide on a name for DD2 (due in Dec). We already have a Lachlan and a Lily so I was hoping to avoid using another "L" name as I get sick of being asked did I name them with the same letter on purpose!

DP is really keen on naming bub Lucie though which I really like as well but wanted to go with Avah so we didn't use "L" again!

What do you think??

*Note: my siblings have gone with the letter trend, one has a Riley, Regan and Riarna and the other has a Zeidyn and Zayvia.

I like Lucie, but prefer it spelt Lucy. Good luck with your decision!

I LOVE the name Lucy, but Lucy, not Lucie. And I like Ava (without the h) but it's very common these days. If it was spelt Avah I would pronounce it `Ah-VAR', not `Ay-va'.

DD1 and I have exact same intials, and we almost gave DD2 a "R" name also...I do not think it matters, but mail could become fun in a few years..:p

DP likes it spelt Lucy but I would prefer Lucie only because I think Lucy is too similar to Lily (our first DD)...

Yeah I'm worried about the whole mail thing and going through school etc when they will all be:

L. Goulding

They do have different middle names though

Lachlan Nathan Kyal
Lily Josslyn Assaye

I was thinking this one could always be

Lucie Avah Lynne (we want to use Lynne as it's MIL's name)

I would go with whatever name YOU like.

There are 6 of us kids in our family......4 of us are DT, two of us are JT. Never bothered any of us having the same initials.
