    Help me round off the sibset...

    Which sounds best with Lucy and Rose? I love Isla, but my good friends sister has an Isla and I thought it might seem like I was copying her. Also, knowing one so directly makes me worry about popularity. I'm also worried about Lila's popularity, especially with the crazy amounts of Lily's in the world. Cora is a new love. I go back and forth on it. I'm loving that I can use Coco as a nn. Aria is beautiful and sounds very different from Lucy and Rose, but is it trendy and do you think Pretty Little Liars is going to cause a bit of a popularity boom? Thanks for all your feedback

    You already have a L with Lucy so Lila is out for me so Isla or Aria for me.

    I love the name Isla. And I think it works with Lucy and Rose. But honestly, I think Cora goes better - it has the same vintage feel as Lucy and Rose, whereas Isla (at least in the US) is a fairly new, trendy name.

    Lila is a little too close to Lucy (both 4 letter names beginning with L) and trendy more than classic. When you consider Lila's popularity, make sure you're also considering Lyla or any other spellings. I love the name Lily, and it's very popular.. as are Lillian, Lilly, Lillie, etc. Aria is very pretty but doesn't fit with the feel of Lucy and Rose. Not a bad option, though.

    My votes would be:

    Cora
    Isla
    Aria
    Lila

    Good luck!

    I love Isla, Lila, and Aria.
    With Lucy and Rose, I think Isla and Aria are the best choices. can't choose one, love it both.

    I think Cora would be a lovely name with Lucy and Rose. I love Lila too but she would share an initial with Lucy. Isla and Aria seem a little too contemporary with L & R.
    All the best,

    I think if your good friend had a child named Isla then you should steer clear, but a sister of a friend doesn't count in my mind. I like the name Isla a lot, but Cora goes very nicely with the sibling names as well.

    Lucy, Rose and Isla are all semi-popular vintage-y names in the UK, and I really think they go very well together. I actually know twins named Isla and Rose. I love the fact they're all 4 letters too, but of course it would be with any of the names.

    I would have voted Cora, but it seems a tiny bit out of place to me, strangely. I think it's because it's far less popular than them in the UK.

    I think Isla and Cora fit the best. I agree with pp's about Lila--both popular and infringing on Lucy's L. I find Aria much more modern in comparison with her sisters.

    Cora!!! : D. I agree with the general consensuses (at least I assume of US writers - where are you?) . To me specifically, Cora feels vintage like Lucy and Rose and is great, Lila is vintage to my ear too actually, but then there are two L initials, Isla is lovely but more "modern" (but not exactly), same for Aria (but even more modern).

    Your excitement about nn Coco doesn't seem repeated for nn's of the others (well, they don't really have them), so that's an added bonus for Cora!

    Good luck!
