I like Thea Isabel best - partly because I think "Tig" would be a lovely nn!

For the same reason, I wouldn't go for "Zog"

Thanks Reb3cca. I love old fashioned sounding names, so that doesnt bother me in the slightest and I really like the way it 'looks' and sounds with Freya. Freya not so common where I live - when I told my friend, she refused to believe it was a real name as she had never heard of it lol

Thanks for your comments :)

Beatrix Molly sounds fine to me - but then how often do you actually use a middle name

cazzybabs · 14/08/2011 11:55

I love Evelyn (as I have one) but not keen on Freya

Beatrix I quite like

Thea I like - unsual

thanks seeker. I was trying to keep to a syllable rule (3-2-1 or 2-3-1). So as Beatrix has a three syllable name, I wanted a 2 syllable mn. That's just me being a bit OCD, no other reason lol.

Margaret wouldnt fit, what about Milly or Maggie to go with Beatrix? I do love Molly though :(

Freya Evelyn G Freya = dislike, very common where I like and know a few Freyas I dislike. Eveyln = Dislike... my great aunty is called evelyn, very old fashioned sounding imo
Beatrix Molly G LOVE
Thea Isabel G umm ok don't rate Thea but like Isobel & they do go together
Zoe Olivia G__ dislike Zoe - just a bit boring, Olivia = although common I love love love this name.

All lovely except Molly. Nice on it's own but doesn't work with beatrix (IMHO!) Beatrix Margaret instead?
