37 weeks and doubting about a girl's name

I'm 37 weeks pregnant and we're still undecided on the name. We already have a son, Xander, and were thinking of naming our daughter Lara or Elise. What do you think?

    I find Elise just a little bit more beautiful, especially for when she's grown up.

    You can also look at which meaning of the names resonates with you the most.

    I think Xander and Lara sound nicer than Xander and Elise.

    Lara!!!
    I think Lara is such a beautiful name! Besides, Lara just flows much better than Elise.
    I also think Lara looks nicer combined with Xander!

    I think Lara also sounds better with Xander!
    It's just a nicer name anyway....

    I also think Lara is really pretty, but if I hear it too much, I don't like it as much anymore. But more important is how you feel about the name.

    You can also wait until she's born and maybe then you'll see which name fits her.

    I think Elize sounds a bit nicer, and by the way, I still find Elize even more beautiful. I think Lara is a bit more edgy, but also nice. My preference is for Elize/Elise.

    Lara!
    I actually know quite a few Elises and not a single Lara..

    Lara! I think it fits better with Xander.

    I think Xander and Elise are nicer.
    It’s also because I know a really nice Elise, and all these “extreme crap” Laras with huge houses, pools, etc. So to me, Lara comes across as a name for rich snobs (I don’t mean it in a judgmental or mean way). Elise doesn’t have that vibe.
    I like the names themselves equally, it’s just my personal interpretation.

    Funny. I actually associate the name Elise with 'cockroach'

    I think Lara sounds better with Xander than Elise and Xander. Probably because both names have an A in them.
