Baby name doubts

I’ve been set on naming our daughter Francesca, since I found out I was pregnant. Husband took convincing but now I’ve sort of talked myself out of it… any similar names with a pretty vibe. Will be sister to our 3yo son, Laurence

I love Francesca its on my list too I just don't like if people shorten it 😪 Harriet is lovely and Hattie is cute for a nickname xx

I love Francesca! My little girl is Felicity Alma

@Siân my best friend has a son called Francis and he goes by Frankie… so I’m keen to avoid nicknaming her that for sure. Her initials would be FE so think I might be able to get away with ‘Effie’ as a nickname 😬

Someone I know who has a little Francesca has always called her Chessie which I think is cute. I think it will come back around and you’ll like it again it’s probably just you’ve said it too much. When she’s born I reckon you won’t want any other name. My daughter is Imogen so I’m biased towards that as I love it 😀

My daughter is Imogen too!

@Amy it’s the best name 😍

@Chrissy only name we chose for a girl god forbid we have another girl we’ll have no idea

@Amy I may be in that situation. Gender of this one is unknown but we are really struggling for names!! Both boys and girls actually! Poor baby is just going to be called baby for weeks!!

I love Francesca! Other nicknames could be Fifi or this list I googled xx Fran Cesca Chessie Frankie Franzy Frenchie Franny Ces Chess Checca Ceska Cessie Ressa Fray Ceca Cesie Cheska Franci Chessey Fresco Frenz Chicca Cesco Chessi Francie Frankee Cesky Fresca Franja Chezzy Chessa Chessica Francina Chica Freskie Fressie
