Girls Names... DP driving me NUTS

[~ Zarava Flutterby ~]

OK started a new thread so a bit easier for people to read.
I have a 10mth old DD who's name is AVA LILLY we are due to have #2 in Jan and needed names.

I liked the following but these are out:
Isabelle - cousin just used this as her DD2's middle name
Charlotte - DP doesn't like

DP suggested ZARA and i didn't mind this, still need some middle name ideas.

He has now suggested that he likes ELLA... i LOVE this name but a friend has a little girl who's about 4mths and her name is ELLA, she lives 2hrs away, we don't see her often and she is more a family friend than a personal friend.
Would it be rude to use this name? I have sent her a msg on FB and asked if she would mind.. it's not set in stone but don't want to offend anyone...

OK so i need some suggestions for middle names to go with ELLA and ZARA and possibly still some ideas on first names... i know i'm asking a lot but i am sick of calling her #2.. she's going to get a complex.

ELLA .......
ZARA .......
????????

Thanks in advance

I like the sound of Zara Rose

I'm biased, as my DD is Ella Grace, so i love the name Ella. Having said that, I really like Tinks suggestion of Zara Rose..very pretty!

GL with your choice!

well our top 2 contenders are Ella Kate and Ella Rose if that helps

Ella_bear - Hehe i said to DP what about Ella Grace.. not sure where i got Grace from... will have to work on him maybe!

I like Zara Rose but not sure about staying with the flower middle names... hmm which goes better with Ava is something i guess i need to consider too.

What about Ellie instead of Ella if you don't want 2 names ending in A.

[Oscar&Grouch]

what about Ella Louise?
or maybe you could look at bella?
but i do have to admit i love Zara.. or Zarah

by the looks of it you and DP love cute girlie names what do you think of

Mia?
Megan?
Elyse?

LOL....funny thing is my DH chose DD's name! - we were just throwing names around and he came up with Ella Grace which i loved, so it stuck

If you were to name your DD the same, hers would be Ella Grace Lutter....quite nice i think, but up to you guys!

BLOODY MEN SUCK... lol sorry guys DP rings me before and says... oh guess what!
His friend who is moving back to Melb and who we used to spend a lot of time with has a little girl.. and her name... ELLA so now thats out... OMG

I am over calling her #2 but have resigned myself to the fact DP will prob never make a decision! hmmmm
