I love Elodie. Or Eloise? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dreaming-of-girl-names#post-2472240 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 09:02:59 +0000 LuLu Mom 2472240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have two girls that start with an E, so if we have a 3rd girl (not pregnant just dreaming) I know it needs to be an E too (even though this was never my plan!) :) </p> <p>I have it narrowed down to 3 (or 4) names, what do you all think? My girls names now start with Em and Ev...so any name that start/sound similar are out. I'd like to use a different combination of letters, obviously I'm leaning toward El. </p>
