Thoughts on this name please?
Thank you 😊

[CheesePleaseLoueese]

Love it

[SnowdropFox]

Cute! I dont mind that they both end in ie

[DramaAlpaca]

Marie is lovely.

I agree - I think it’s because the stress pattern in each name is different so they still flow well together.

I.e. Elsie Mary (EL-sie MA-ry) vs Elsie Marie (EL-sie ma-RIE)

[Sandcastles09]

Love it!

[Waitingforamate]

Love it. Does make me think of Lisa Marie but wouldn’t put me off.

[MikeUniformMike]

Not keen on either of them.
How does Elsie sound with the surname?

[StopMakingATitOfUrselfNPissOff]

Bit twee for me

[MercyBodle]

I like Elsie. I prefer it with an unpredictable middle name, but sounds fine with Marie.

[TheNanny23]

Weren’t you deciding between Lucy and Elsie? Still not personally keen on Elsie, I think of Corrie.
I would put it with a bit of a stronger sounding middle name, I find the double ‘ie’ off putting

[Kanaloa]

It’s fine. Elsie isn’t my cup of tea, I prefer Elise/Eliza. The actual name is ok though and very wearable, just not my taste.

[Ellen35]

What would you consider a stronger middle name? I'm trying to avoid the obvious Rose or May so I thought Marie would be a good alternative.

[FippertyGibbett]

Elsie May sounds nice, I like it.

[Whatsyourflava]

Elsie Marie is gorgeous

Elsie Margaret
Elsie Clementine
Elsie Elizabeth
Elsie Jemima

[bumblebumblebumblebee]

Lovely names but all of these are from that thread all about filler middle names lol

[scentedgeranium]

Bit twee for a grown up professional I'd say. Nice for a sweet little girl (do you want a sweet little girl tho?)

[festivebug]

Not a fan of Elsie but I do know one who is lovely.

[diddlediddle]

Marie is nice, it's the Elsie part that might need reconsidering... it's a very very twee name for a grown woman. Elise? Elise Marie is nice.

[YoniAndGuy]

Oh millions of names!

Elsie Ramona
Elsie Josephine
Elsie Cassandra
Elsie Marianne (better than marie I think?)
Elsie Blythe
Elsie Juliette

[YoniAndGuy]

Also however agree that Elsie wouldn't be my first choice - prefer Edith, Martha, Maeve?

[AnnaSW1]

I love Elsie

[YoniAndGuy]

It has a sad sound to me. Quie a melancholy name.

[TheNanny23]

In terms of a ‘stronger’ middle name Elsie is quite a cutesy name so having a more ‘grown up’ middle name balances it out

Elsie Margot
Elsie Catherine
Elsie Violet
Elsie Victoria
Elsie Harriet
Elsie Charlotte
Elsie Stella
Elsie Astrid
Elsie Frances
Elsie Abigail
Elsie Madeleine

[TheNanny23]

I know I was last poster t’other day but I actually thought about Elsie and I really like Elsie Harriet

I can hear ‘Elsie Harriet Jones [insert alternative surname] being read out to receive her degree.
‘Elsie Marie Jones’ I think of a little girl whacking another on the head with a plastic toy.

I get too into these imaginings.
