I love the name Lilah, also with an "H" or Sadie .My niece's name is Aubrey and although I love her and the name has grown on me, I wouldnt have wanted that name if i had a meaningful say. It's also extremely common, as well as Zoe(y) .

I love Lilah but with an 'h'. Without it the name just seems incomplete, probably something to do with Delilah having an 'h' so I feel like Lilah should too.

What middle name are you using, this would help me narrow it down?

Lila is my favorite from your list. For second, it's a tie between Zoe and Sadie. They are both names I didn't used to like but they have grown on me.

I think Zoe would age all right--better than Zoey with a y, which I think looks childish. I used to have an elderly neighbor named Zoe Horowitz, so it doesn't strike me as terribly juvenile.

Maybe I've said this before, but I'm not a fan of Sadie or Aubrey. Sadie sounds like a dog's name to me, and Aubrey is too boyish in my opinion. Gemma, Lila, or Zoe would be lovely.

Just wanted to add--I can definitely see Zoe growing up well, too!  There's a lovely lady that comes into my store (or used to, anyway) fairly frequently, and she's probably in her mid sixties, and her name is Zoe.  It suits her so well!  I can imagine a Grandma Zoe very easily.  :)

I love them all, with the exception of Aubrey!  If I had to pick, it'd be Gemma, but if Lila was Lily then Lily would get my vote.  I think my order of preference is in the order you have them right now.  :)

 

Good luck!

Definitely Zoe!!! It's so beautiful, and I disagree with the pp, I think it ages great. I know several older Zoes, it's a lovely name at any age. Lila's a close second, though, and I really like Aubrey as well.

Whilst I do like Zoe probably best as a name for a baby girl, I don't know about it 'growing older' with your daughter as she does.  I would therefore choose Gemma - I think it is classic, timeless yet got some modernism to it too and will be suitable for a baby, young girl, young woman and older woman :)

This is tough, but I'll say Gemma. A family friend's sister is named Gemma and it suits her so well. I love the name in general, it's so pretty and elegant sounding, but spunky and cute at the same time. It ages well, I think, unlike names similar to it. I have a niece named Emma so I can't use it, but I think it's the winner for me :) Congrats on your new baby girl!
