Eunice?
Replies
I agree that it's a bit old-lady sounding to me, (it's my grandfather's sister's name) but there are far worse things you could do to a child. Plus when she's 80 at least her name will be appropriate and not something like, um, I don't know, Nevaeh. :)
I also really like Athena, but I'm partial to mythology names.

Sorry, but I think Eunice is a very ugly sounding name - not at all pretty. I also think of the word eunuch.

I do like the name Teresa (that spelling only), but I don't think that combo flows - the letters clash with one another.
From the other names, I'd prefer Grace with Gracie as a nickname, but only as a middle name.

I think Eunice is a bit too old-ladyish for me, Eugenie is a better alterative I think
Shiloh - good name but has too many dog-associations for me, plus I think Miss Claire said for Jewish people it is like calling your son Jesus? Or something similiar
Gracie - cute but only as a nn for Grace
Athena - nice middle name, prefer Athene
