Which girl name?

I already have a beautiful little girl (20 months) named Penelope Rae.  We are now expecting another girl in 6 weeks and are searching for a name.

This is our short list. Which do you like best? And also, if you have any suggestions feel free to share. (poll feature wouldn't work for me)

Samantha

Zoe

Alexa

Anabelle

We have an 11 month old Penelope June!  From your list the only name I like is Anabelle. (I like Zoe but feel it's too popular and people are trying to ruin it with the Zoey spelling now )

From my list -

Daphne

Felicity

Irina

Josephine

Good luck!

Penelope June was my choice for my daughter last year, DH vetoed it. But we have Josephine Pearl!

OP: I like Samantha the best

Crazy, did you come up with it or find it on here? I was super active on here last year at this time, as Pitterpat1, I just cannot for the life of me figure out how to log in as my old name so I made a new account since we are trying for #4

I like Zoe but I don't like that it has the same end sound as Penelope. I know about ten Samanthas so I would choose Alexa

Good names!

 

Samantha--by far my favorite.  Classic, good nicknames, feminine, easy to pronounce.

Zoe--Not my favorite, but certainly a good name.

Alexa--seems a little 90s and makes me think of Carmen Alexis (not the best image)

Annabelle--trendy, but a good name.

Samantha - feels dated to me. Definitely not my favorite.

Zoe - Really cute with Penelope as a sib, but definitely gaining popularity.

Alexa - Ok, NMS.

Anabelle - Like this one. Cute with Penelope.

So I would choose Zoe or Anabelle from your list! Good luck :)

I think Anabelle sounds best with Penelope and it's a very pretty name. I also like the suggestion of Felicity.
