    DD1 is Ava Lilly, I didn't realise but at the time it was the most popular girls name, it hasn't bothered me at all, I think she's met 1 other Ava

    Both your selections are gorgeous

    Oh I LOVE the name Georgia! Georgia Isabelle sounds beautiful. To me, popularity of the name doesn't matter as much as the fact that I'll be calling my daughter this for the rest of my life - we have to love it! I wouldn't discount a name I really wanted just because it was popular

    They're lovely names. Hard to choose. Maybe wait and see what baby looks like.

    Ava & Georgia are both such beautiful names!!! Our dd name was in the top 10 when we had her, doesn't worry us, we loved the name.

    Popularity does bother me a little but we mainly chose an unusual name because I'm a teacher and most names come with a picture of a child (and their personality/behaviour) with that name already attached, iykwim. It's mostly a boy thing, and mostly the negative ones I was keen to avoid.

    Our girl choice, which we'll use if we have a girl in the future, is in the top 10 at the moment, but we want it because of family connections. Unless I suddenly meet a whole bunch of people with that name, with really strong personalities, we won't change.

    FWIW, I like both your name choices.

    I always figured that if you can imagine yourself yelling the name across a crowded shopping centre and still love it you're onto a winner

    Popularity never really worried me for a name I truly like, but if I'm ambivalent about it then popularity may come into consideration.

    What about using both of them?

    Ava Georgia or Georgia Ava

    I like Ava personally but thats just me. If u cant decide i would keep both of them until baby is born and you see them. As soon as i saw DS2 for the first time, i knew his name was what we picked for sure.
