well having elizabeth as a middle name-its awful

people always laugh when I tell them my middle name, and I know a hundred rachel elizabeth's (which is my name)

People never saw, awww thats a nce middle name, I get the 'was it a family connection' or 'at least its not your 1st name'

I like Tiana, Tia & Taya. It's cute. A friend called her DD Jaya.

LaundryLyne · 30/07/2010 16:50

Emma-boring borng boring
Rose-so many little girls with ths
Grace-very predictable
Amelia-nice
Eve-very predicatable
Catherine-not really cute little girl image in my head-more a bony old lady
Elizabeth-horrible-my middle name and I cringe when I tell people it, and they all give me sympathy looks. Not going to burden my little girl wth that!!!!

i think its a really nice name but im biased as my 4 year old niece is called tiaana (slight spelling difference but its the same pronunciation as yours) everyone calls her tia for short.

mathanxiety · 30/07/2010 15:46

From that list, I love Carmen too. Carmel is a very nice, soft-sounding name, but Carmen is really gorgeous.

emmyloo2 · 30/07/2010 15:44

I don't like it. Sounds a little made up.

I also don't like Tatiana (as someone else suggested) but that's because I lived in Russia and every second girl was called Tatiana. It is always shortened to Tanya there anyway.

nice names:

Emma
Rose
Grace
Amelia
Eve
Catherine
Elizabeth

Do you really think that Ibizadreams?

Carmen is beautiful!

rachel234 · 30/07/2010 15:13

I like Tiana. Simple and feminine sounding. Nicknames can be Tia or Taia.

Not at all similar to Princess Tiaammii!

colliecross, how is it not a real name??

Thedoodler- name threads arnt my favourite, as I have never once suggested a 'winner'

OP posts:
TheDoodler · 30/07/2010 15:00

See - this is why i never come on name threads

Honestly - imagine how you would feel if you don't call it her and then she ends up at school with one - you'd be so

Colliecross · 30/07/2010 14:57

I know an exquisitely pretty Finnish girl called Taina (pronounced Tie-na)which is similar but a real name.

ShadeofViolet · 30/07/2010 14:49

I like it, its pretty IMO.
But I prefer Diana

Nonama?

Francesca-Fran is horrible.

Violet-my sister has this name

Iris-OH hates

Alexandra-Too boyish in my opinion

I have gone through about 10000 names and I can't find one. She is going to have no name at this rate.

OP posts:
TheDoodler · 30/07/2010 14:43

Actually though...if you like Tianna you should go ahead and call her that.

rachxx · 30/07/2010 14:42

I like Tia, but Im guessing everyone thinks its 'too short' so prob not!
