Suggest mn for Matilda pls

[indiana7]

Hi Dh & I can't pick a middle name for Matilda, from searching threads we have come up with 4 we quite like & would appreciate feedback on these or alternatives.

Matilda Florence(my fave)
Matilda Charlotte
Matilda Primrose
Matilda Emily(dh fave)

Thanks

[littlemissbroadway]

I love Matilda Florence and Matilda Charlotte. They're delightful :-) I'm not crazy about Matilda Emily, the flow seems a bit off, and Primrose is nms.

[sleepingbeautiful]

I think any of the first 3 sound better than the last one (sorry to your DH ;)) because they are all 2 syllables and Matilda is 3.

[NadiaWadia]

Matilda Alice? (Alice seems to come from the same time period as Matilda)

[rideyourbike]

Matilda rose sounds right to me :)

[thegreatgatsby101]

I agree with Matilda Alice.

[DonkeysDontRideBicycles]

I like Matilda with Emily because they both have three syllables.

[BaileysOnRocks]

My daughter is Matilda Rose

She would have been Matilda Alice if not Rose.

I love the name Florence, it's so beautiful.

[indiana7]

Love Alice so much but can't have Alice as our surname ends in A, so it would be too much with Matilda endind in an "a" also:(

Matilda Rose is gorgeous Baileys but we were already told by a family member in no uncertain terms that Rose is taken already hence how Primrose got thrown into the mix! I still love Matilda Florence, think Matilda is a strong name & Florence makes it's romantic & slightly boho!!!

[BelleOfTheBorstal]

Matilda Roseanne? Or Matilda Rosa?
Matilda Posy?

[BumpAndGrind]

I would just use Rose anyway.

I told MIL that she couldn't name the puppy Georgina because I was going to use it. I was pregnant at the time but never did use it.

Is the family member pregnant yet op? If not, fuck em.

My DD was nearly Matilda Florence!

[DrewsWife]

Husband and I are trying to conceive and we chose Matilda Grace

[SaltyGoodness]

yes, using Rose as a middle name does NOT count as stealing, who even uses the middle name in RL... I'm also not a fan of Primrose but Rose or any of the other 3 are nice

[WowserBowser]

I like Matilda Florence but would you possibly be having another girl? Florence may be nice to hold back if so.

[PunkAssMoFo]

I know a couple of girls called Matilda Florence & it does seem to flow well.

If you want Rose, use it. Every third child has it as a mn so they hardly have dibs on it. I do think Florence is nicer though.

Gonna throw Roslyn/Roseline, Evelyn & Beatrice into the mix

[SpanielFace]

DS would have been Matilda Hope if he'd been a girl.

[alita7]

I like matilda Alice and matilda rose. Also matilda may, matilda jane, matilda Sophie, matilda cori, matilda eve, matilda Louise , matilda Emilia, matilda Kate or catherine and matilda Elsie.

[seasaltbaby]

Matilda Joy?

[Ali398]

Matilda Florence is beautiful, but we do have the same taste in names ;)

[slartybartfast]

i like matilda primrose

[MaryWestmacott]

I agree with you from your list!

Matilda Emily sounds like it needs another middle name, it doesn't sound complete IYSWIM - and if neither you or DH love the other two, don't bother with them.

However, do you have any granny or great granny names you could put in as a middle name? If you and DH can't find one you both love, perhaps a middle name with meaning would be better as then it's not about the name, but about honouring hte person. (Hope that makes sense!)

[guineapig2014]

What about these three?
Matilda Iris
Matilda Eve
Matilda grace

[HuiledOlive]

Matilda Violet? That's what my next dd will be called! DH - you listening?

[Ilikepancakes]

I don't like Matilda Emily as both are long three-syllable names so it sounds to complicated. Matilda works better with a one or two syllable middle name. Your first three suggestions are all lovely, my favourite is Matilda Charlotte. I like Matilda Willow.

[Kaekae]

Matilda Florence for me.
