Baby Names!

Hi all!

I have just found out that I am expecting a little baby girl and I've started to think about different baby names. I'm wanting the middle name to be Lesley, after someone who has helped me the past few years, but I just can't think of a first name that goes with it. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!!!

- Thanks in advance.

What type of name do you like? Traditional, quirky, common, slightly-less-common, totally whacky ones?

I know that I want a name that can be shortened down, like my nephews name is Oliver but we call him Ollie, if that makes any sense. I am wanting a unique(ish) name, I love traditional names - but I just couldn't imagine calling my lil' one something that is seen as more of an "old person's" name, but I equally don't want one that wouldn't suit her when she gets older. I am open to all name suggestions, I'm hoping that one will stand out - even if I wasn't considering it to begin with. I hope all of this made sense - baby brain over here!

One name that I do love, however is Lottie. But because I want Lesley as the middle name, I don't think that this would go?

Just for context it's not going to be double barrelled, unless it made sense for it to be!
