38 weeks needing some name help!!

So from about 20 weeks we have had the name Aria Charlotte picked out. Charlotte is my grandmothers name so it will likely stay but I have been questioning Aria but DH was not budging. Tonight on our nightly get this baby out walk he says he wouldn't mind changing it either. I am in love with the name Vivienne but he hates it and so sadly it is out. The names that are still in the running: Aria, Ivy, Lyra, Evangeline, Alice, Rosalie, and Sophia. What do you think and what are some suggestions? I like very classic lady like names (Vivienne, Isadora, Millicent) He likes simple spunky names (Ivy, Lyra, Luna)

I love Aria, Ivy and Rosalie NN Rosie.  I think Charlotte would go nicely with any of them.

What does your DH suggest you change it to?  I also like classic names more so and think Charlotte, Alice, Sophia or Rosalie would be nice names.  Could you use Aria as a middle name, or possibly one of his other choices in the MN spot?

I like Alice, Rosalie and Ivy better than Aria.

Also, what about Iris?

I think we are going with Vivienne, it wasn't the pick at first, but grew on us. I am trying to stay away from anything too popular right now to try to avoid a "trendy" feel, otherwise I'd have picked Sophia. Another classic but also spunky name I am considering as a middle name is Inez. I did like Aria too, but I was worried it will sound too much like "area." One name we really liked at first due to its classic yet sweet feel is Helene.

If you both like Ivy a lot, I'd go with that. It's waaaaay nicer than Aria--and it still sounds good with Charlotte as a MN.

I like the names in the running:)

Maybe if you name her Evangeline you can call her Eva (short and spunky enough?).

I think Rosalie seems like the best compromise of classic & spunky. Rosalie Charlotte would be gorgeous! 

Sophia may be too trendy for a FN, but I really like it as an unexpected middle - Vivienne Sophia? Ivy Sophia?

What does he think of Vivi as a nickname for Vivienne?  Tell him he can call her Vivi.  I love that name too and DH was not sold but I knew that if this baby was a girl, that was going to be her name.  DH doesn't care that much that he would tell me flat out no.

I like Alice more than Aria. Rosalie and Evangeline are okay. How about Angela?

I LOVE Isla which may fit your needs. Classic, old, but short and spunky for hubby. I wish my hubby was on board with it!

Oh I love Alice!

DS has 2 Ivys in his class at montessori so while the name has grown on me, that's just 1 too many for me.

I also think Evangeline is lovely.

Thank you ladies so much. I love the suggestions and ran a few by him but he didn't take any :( Ivy is looking like our winner right now though we both love the name but it feels like I just can't settle on one. We are just going to take our list to the birth center with us I suppose haha. Also I told him Vivi is an adorable nickname he just hates the name which is so sad because it is my number one name. I want her to be Vivienne Charlotte so bad I can't stand it lol

Aria is okay. I think Evangeline, Alice, and Sophia are much prettier.

Sorry... But is that the same as "Vivian" -- If so, I don't like the spelling but think it's a fine name.  I think Lyra is pretty though -- That one or Aria would get my vote!
