Thank you for your responses to the thread. My wife gave birth on Thursday the 3rd of June and we did have a Girl so it was time well spent reading your replies
Somebody mentioned earlier in this thread that we would know her name the second that we looked in to her eyes and we definitely did. We named her Lucia Charlotte and we are absolutely delighted with the choice
Thank you all for your help. We decided to keep the name choices to ourselves so it really helped having a forum to air the names with other people. We do still love the name Isabella but the decision to go with Lucia was made for us when we saw her for the first time.
Top Australian baby names 2009 good thing you went with Lucia, seems Isabella was the most popular Australian girl's name of 2009, and 5th most popular in SA in 2009 With good reason though, its a pretty name. But you'd scream out "Isabella!" in a supermarket and a flock of little girls would come running at you!
We're still trying to choose a name for ours, due in a few weeks so I feel your pain. We're strictly choosing non-popular names - if we think of something and it is in the top 50, it gets culled. At the moment I live in a small town so there aren't many duplicate names within an individual class, but I swear EVERY name in the top 20 both male and female is in the Kindergym class, and again in my daughter's class at school.
CONGRATULATIONS on the arrival of Lucia! I just read all your posts & it seems that the name is perfect for your little one. You never know, Isabella might be the name of your next one ;P
