Feeb, absolutely, let's catch up soon!
Samantha is cute, I really like it, actually I like lots of names on your list but unfortunately they are close friends or relatives. Sammie though is added to the list. I also really like Charlotte (or Charli) but dh thinks it's too popular...
Thanks Rouge, it is actually growing on me now.
HotI, Abby is the other name on my list, love it! Have to convince DH though...
I know an irrepressible girl called Matisse. She is just gorgeous. I don't really have any other suggestions. I love Matisse. GL with the name hunting.
I LOVE Matisse but DH didn't. We went for Milla instead (which I also super dooper love!). And our other twin is a Claudia (I also like Charlotte, but my best friend was due the week after me, and it was the name she has loved forever).
Ricky Ponting and his wife called their new daughter Matisse. I think it is very pretty.
My DD is called Tara and if one of my twins was going to be a girl we were going to use Eliza. I also liked the name Poppy but my DH didn't like it at all.
As for trying to be french, I wouldn't worry about that. All my kids have Irish/Celtic names - including surname - Tara, Rhys & Liam and my name is Irish as well but we are all true blue Aussies. If you love it then go for it
