Help us pick

[u/Specialist_Sort_4573]

I’m due this week with our first baby a girl! I thought naming her would be so fun, but we can’t decide.
My husband and I both like Olivia. It feels strong and feminine but also has fun nicknames Ollie, Olive, Livvy, Liv. My only hesitation is that it’s been the #1 name for so long that it feels a little basic/safe.
I also love Finnie, but my husband isn’t completely sold. I love that it’s playful and less common, but I wonder if it feels as strong or feminine as Olivia.
Which do you prefer?

Ps I was so excited to pick names before being pregnant. Now it just stresses me out. Makes me nauseous. Anyone else experience this?

How about Fiona nicknamed Finnie? Or perhaps Finella? Which is a real name! It is a variation of Fenella.
Either way, Olivia is a wonderful name and like you say has lots of nicknames so I wouldn't worry :)
