My top 15 - what's your favourite from it?

[haleyalannahxo]

I'm a bit skeptic about posting this considering yesterday, but I've left out all hyphen names from my top list, haha.

I currently have 15 names I love for girls, and although I'm not expecting (I will be ttc within the next few years, I hope, currently at uni haha so I'm name collecting for now, but going into childcare, so mum forums are really helpful for me), I would love to know what your favourite off my list is.

I'm not currently looking for any suggestions, so if you don't like any of the names, choose the one you hate the least () or, just don't comment .

My list right now:

Imogen Delilah Kate
Lettie Ophelia Jane
Beatrice Lavinia Mary
Violet Rosalind May
Elsie May Kathleen
Eleanor Iris Pearl
Florence Eliza May
Jemima Emily Florence
Amy Beatrice Louise
Lillian Elsie Maude
Martha Valerie Elise
Agatha Lily Frances
Lucy Augusta Claire
Maude Ismeria Grace (Iz-mair-ee-ah)
Dorothea Adelaide Mary


Thank you.

Beatrice Lavinia Mary is my favourite.

I like Jemima, Amy and Imogen best.

[Gugglebum]

The Lucy combo, followed closely by Imogen.

[Onepactupac]

Agatha

[HaveYouHeardOfGoogle]

Florence Eliza May

[Petitgrain]

Maude Ismeria - but not grace. Maude is such a beautiful name, underused I think. You've got great taste in names.

[ElBombero]

Beatrice or Eleanor xx

[ElBombero]

Not Dorothea, but Adelaide is a beautiful name I would have that as a first, trumping the rest. You've a fab taste in names btw

[JessePinkmansMom]

Imogen Delilah Kate - Like all of them.

Lettie Ophelia Jane - Don't like Lettie at all, and it doesn't really work as a stand-alone name for me - sounds like it should be short for something else. Love Ophelia. Jane ok for a middle name but quite boring.

Beatrice Lavinia Mary - Really like Mary, don't mind Lavinia, not keen on Beatrice at all.

Violet Rosalind May - love Violet and Rosalind, don't like May at all.

Elsie May Kathleen - I really like Elsie (much prefer Elsa, was on my shortlist for DD twenty years ago) but Elsie is becoming very popular. Also you can expect Elsa with Elsie as a nn to become pretty over-used now because of Frozen. I think Elsie is going to be the new Ellie/Lily/Evie.

Eleanor Iris Pearl - Like all of them.

Florence Eliza May - like Florence and Eliza

Jemima Emily Florence - love Jemima and really like that combination

Amy Beatrice Louise - Don't like any of them.
L
Lillian Elsie Maude - don't like at all

Martha Valerie Elise - I'm totally over Martha and I don't like the other two

Agatha Lily Frances - Agatha is awful, Lily too common, Frances is ok.

Lucy Augusta Claire - don't like

Maude Ismeria Grace (Iz-mair-ee-ah) - don't like

Dorothea Adelaide Mary - Hate Adelaide, like the other two.

Just seen that you are still at uni and don't even intend to have a baby for a few years yet.

What a pointless exercise. By the time you need to pick a name you'll have changed your mind ten times.

Although if you are thinking about babies to the point that you've so much thought to a shortlist that long then perhaps pregnancy will not be as far away for you as you are trying to tell us it will be.

[JessePinkmansMom]

Sorry that was garbled crap. But you get the idea.

[fideline]

Lillian Elsie Maude

[Mandy2003]

Amy
Elsie

Just a question - no criticism implied. Is there a reason for having two diminutives (Elsie = short for Elizabeth, Lettie = short for Laetitia/Lettice) among your chosen first names? All your other first-name choices are full-length names. I think many people feel its a good thing to put a full name on a birth certificate, even if you always use the short version.
You may not agree, and that's entirely up to you.

[BlackberryandNettle]

Violet Rosalind both gorgeous names, bit like 'a violet rose' though. Not May unless they're born in May though imo. Also like Jemima Emily Francis.

[hannahlb4884]

Florence Eliza May has a nice flow to it.

D'oh - just read that back I didn't say "nice flow" because Flo is a nickname option, I really do think the name trip off the tongue very nicely.

[squoosh]

Wow you've given this a LOT of thought OP!

[BikeRunSki]

Elsie is a name in its own right though.

[haleyalannahxo]

squoosh & jessepinkmansmom - well I'm definitely not expecting, but names have always been something important to me, and I've always been making lists. I like hearing opinions and ideas on the names on my list. I know girls much younger than me who have put lots more thought into it than I have to be honest!

Why can't I just like names? haha. Never understood why a lot of people have a problem with that.

[squoosh]

Knock yourself out.
