My last baby is about to be born! I would love an either literature-inspired or very British sounding name.

 

Siblings are Anne Caroline Josephine "Annie",

Henry Michael Oliver,

George Alexander Louis "Georgie" (yes, I know it's the Prince's name. we came up with it first :) 

Philippa Charlotte Marie "Pippa".

 

We don't know the gender. All suggestions are welcome. thanks!

Gloriana - the Faerie Queene
