    Oh yeah, it is great!! Enjoy playing around with names

    And I would say that Rafaela and Ella sound too alike. But, that is just my opinion, heck, I was worried about naming DD a name that started with the same letter as her cousin, lol!

    Name Nymbler was a fave of mine too when I was pg!
    Definitely agree it is too close... I know it is... just. can't. let. go... oh well, that at least makes our list one name shorter haha!

    Thanks everyone for your thoughts! I was actually drawn to Samara originally because of how well it seemed to flow with Imogen so interesting to see somebody else thought so too

    I don't really like any of them, but you know how strange I am, so I know you'll forgive me and not take it personally... LOL

    You could always use some of my leftover names cos I'm not having any more (and I really really do mean it. no more Mel.. no more!!)
