Charlotte Rose!?

DD1 is named Lily Elizabeth and just over a week from my due date we have decided on Charlotte Rose for DD2. Does rose sound okay as a middle name and do the two names go? Thoughts?

Charlotte Rose is so pretty Smile

I like Rose as a middle name - it's my dd's middle name too! - and I think it goes beautifully with your other dd's name.

Fabulous choices!

Thanks! My partner seems to think rose isnt very nice as a second name but i kinda like the idea of subtly keeping my flower theme going! :) hehe!

You've chosen beautiful names.

You could have a Lily & a Lottie, which is really cute! Smile

My dd(6) is a Charlotte Rose. She goes by Lottie . It really is a beautiful combination (plus there is only two charlottes in her school -300 pupils)

Nice but i think Charlotte is a bit overused today. Up there with Isabella. Lots in my DDs class.

Lovely. Classic and timeless and goes very well with your first dds name!

Lily Elizabeth AND Charlotte Rose?

You do realize you've just named Charlotte from Sex and the City, her two daughters and her dog?

As long as you know you might come across as a crazy fan!

Lovely, elegant and timeless.

Would you use a nickname though? Not sure I'd have a Lily and a Lottie?

There's a Charlotte Rose in my family too. I think it's a very pretty combination. IMO (and I haven't looked at the baby name stats) there are quite a lot of Charlottes in their late teens/early twenties but not so many little ones around.

Beautiful :) But biased as I have used those names too!

My DD Charlotte is one of two Charlottes in her school of 600 ish students. My DH teaches in a school with 950 students and only one Charlotte.

My Charlotte refuses all NNs, but would prefer Lottie if she had a NN.

Lily & Lottie sounds like the title of a children's book :)

Yeh i certainly dont know any charlottes where im from, although i must admit i love isabella but it is too popular at the moment. As for sex and the city, i am a fan but even i didnt notice that so i would assume only hardcore fans would see the connection! Hehe!

Charlotte is lovely.

My opinion on Rose as a middle name has been proffered on many a name thread. I don't think it needs repeating. Wink
