Can I get some baby girl name feedback?


My husband and I are mulling over a short list of names. I'd love some feedback from you thoughtful ladies, it would really help me process it all. I don't intend to share the name with friends and family until it's solidly decided, and/or the baby is born, so I feel like I'm making the decision in a vacuum.

Here are the names, along with the probable middle name Marie (which is the middle name of both grandmas-to-be), and our last name, Rose:

Eloise Marie Rose (nickname Lola)
Olivia Marie Rose (nickname Olive)
Zelda Marie Rose
Zulia Marie Rose

I love Olivia, but I'll admit that I've all but given it up after reading a very compelling opinion online as to why it's just too popular. Zulia was my great grandmother's name, FYI.

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!

Elouise is very pretty! I do love the name Olivia but It is getting rather popular.. Zulia.. I have never heard that before, its unique and pretty. But I think my fave is Elouise.

my fav is Eloise as well...

our 3 yr old DD is Chelsea Rose and baby girl on the way is going to be Brooke ______

we have not yet decided on a middle name for her yet but im liking Louise or Jo-Ann..
Louise is something DH and i both like but Jo-Ann is a misture of what my pop (RIP) called my mum all her life (her real name is Debbie) and her middle name is Ann..
so without being 'Joann' I thought hyphening it would make it a little more special with the meaning behind each name...

Our dd is called Eloise. I think it's a beautiful, femanine name - obviously

We get lots of comments on how pretty the name is, how it's not off the wall unusual yet very uncommon.

Olivia was a contender for us too but was just too well used for our liking.

If im honest zelda just makes me think of a gameboy game. Zulia is very unusual but it's a bit too unusual for my tastes.

Hope that doesn't offend

No offense here, no worries, ladies! Just glad for the in-put.

My mom's name is Louise, and it's my middle name, too.
