    From your list I like Eleanor, Adelaide and Georgia the best. Eleanor fits well with Angus and Harriet.

    What about Elizabeth, Lilliana, Julia, Sophie?

    I love Eleanor, Ellie or Elle for short... My nan was a Eleanor and she was the sweetest kindest woman in the world... Oh and she was beautiful too...

    I used to have a little cat named antoinette, which reminded me I had a cat named Josephine and still have a dog named felicity. Which is annoying as now I can't use them for my own babies!

    Eleanor and Angus do go really well together. That is in fact, my DD's full name! Her middle name is Edith, which I loved as first name too, with nickname Edie. Also one our list were Millicent Mary, Margaret Maeve and Evelyn Elizabeth. No I don't have a thing for alliteration, it just kind of worked that way. Jemima, Imogen and Juliet are on our list for later on, should it be required.

    But I am thrilled that so many people love Eleanor. FWIW I intensely dislike the nicknames Ellie and Elle. She gets Nellie, and maybe down the track Nell. And probably, as a rebellious teen, she will go with Elle to annoy me. I'm fully expecting that.

    I love Eleanor, Miranda, Lucinda and Sydney - Sydney was what we were going to call DS2 had he been a girl. And the other 3 go perfectly with the names of the other kids.
