What do you think?

This is DH final choices and I have been left to decide what do you all think?

Middle name nearly decided and will begin with M

Felicia do not call your DD Fellatio-- Felicia.

Ophelia is asking for nasty puns and is also ill-starred, which would put it out of consideration for me. The rest are fine.

Venetia and Philippa are both lovely. I like the others as well but those two best. Not so much Ophelia though.

Sophia is best,

Unless he will agree to Felicity of course Grin

Is there a nn for Ophelia?

Tonightheywin · 10/08/2012 21:49

All your names are lovely, but I just don't like Ophelia's end so no to Ophelia.

Tonightheywin · 10/08/2012 21:47

Always LOVED Philippa. Feminine but strong, unfussy/unpretentious, beautiful.

EdithWeston · 10/08/2012 21:44

All lovely! I like Venetia best, followed by Sophia and Philippa. Felicia is a tad frillier than the others, and Ophelia doesn't work with some surnames.

mamababa · 10/08/2012 21:42

Sophia or philippa.

VolAuVent · 10/08/2012 21:41

I like Philippa and Sophia best.

Philippa - lovely and Pippa is a great nickname
Venetia - venetian blinds
Sophia - lovely name
Felicia - OK although Felicity nicer IMHO
Ophelia - OK

NotMostPeople · 10/08/2012 21:36
