Re: Excited for our baby but we don't know what to name her
What is wrong with VD? From your list I like Flora and Sybil. For new names:
Ivanna (or Ivana, or Iva)
Besima (feminisation of Besim; an Albanian name with a meaning similar to Verity. Note the feminine form is not used by Albanians)
You might like Zoya or Ruzan (or Ruzanna)? Maybe Sohvi or Terhi.
I think Dagmar goes with Astrid and Lark.

Your suggestion of Dagmar reminds me of one of our SERIOUS contenders for Lark, Dagny. I like the meaning still. Will be suggesting it to my husband again. So thanks A LOT for the suggestion.

VD is an old-fashioned term short for "venereal disease". But in North America at least, people now usually say "STI" (sexually transmitted infection).
Same in South Africa, which is usually rather slow in catching up with new trends. STIs or STDs.
