I don't like Libby short for Isobel, it should be Elizabeth.

Lucy Serena

Lucy Serena
Emilia Charlotte

Both lovely.

I don’t like Libby (reminds me of ‘flabby’) or Florrie.

Lucy is my favourite of your first names. Although if I could pick any combination from your names I would choose Kate Alexandra which is just amazing.

Lucy Serena.

I also don’t see how Libby can be short for Isobel.

Isobel Alexandra Kate (Libby) - love Isobel. It's my DD's middle name. Alexandra Kate sounds really classy too. Great combo

Lucy Serena - love Lucy but not so keen on Serena

Emilia Charlotte (Mimi) - I always think Emilia looks gorgeous but not so keen on it said out loud

Florence Madeleine (Florrie) - gorgeous name

My choice would be Isobel Alexandra Kate
Followed by Florence Madeleine though I think Florence Lucy would also be gorgeous

Just realised you'd call Isobel Libby. That changes things for me and I'd go with Florence. I really don't like Libby

Might go for Izzy (Isobel) instead actually!

Or perhaps Issy? Issy seems less nickname-y than Izzy and softer, more serious and less cheerful somehow.

Prefer Emilia to Emily Chocolate! Emily Charlotte would be a nice literary combo though.

I like all the names, but I prefer Lucy Serena.

I feel like Izzy and Issy both look nickname, I prefer Izzy to Issy

My favourite is Lucy Serena - I think that name is gorgeous and flows really nicely Smile

I also like Isobel Alexandra Kate. I prefer Issy as oppossed to Izzy, but both work well as a nickname.

Isobel, Izzy is lovely

Report
SantaStuckInTheChimney · 06/12/2017 20:54

Definitely Florence.

I hate Emilia- very popular and doesn't sound nice.
Amelia is a better spelling IMO.

Lucy is very dull (sorry).

Florence is your worst choice, and Florrie is awful.
Emilia is OK, but not as nice as Amelia or Emily.

Lucy is nice, and Isobel is gorgeous. Not quite sure about the LIbby though. Middle names are all lovely.
