Title says it all, really. I know the views on hyphenated names but I'm still thinking about one.

I'm wondering about something I could hyphenate with Joy, a family name.

Or should I just not go there?

Don't go there.

How about Ramona-Joy? I think that has a nice ring to it.

I have a Claudia Joy - not hyphenated
DD1 was going to be Amelia Joy, again not hyphentaed

Both go well thoughI think

Not really keen on Joy, would just use it as a middle name tbh.

I came on to suggest Amelia-Joy, but see it's already been done! Names with a similar feel though -

Alexa-Joy
Louisa-Joy
Sophia-Joy
Cecily-Joy
Rosa-Joy
Isabella-Joy
Lilia-Joy

Not Serena-Joy (Handmaid's tale).

Sorry, not useful.

do it if you like it. Fashions change and people really have got to stop letting others dictate what names or styles of names they should or shouldn't have.

yeah, I know, I'm a worthy goody unrealistic blah blah

but it's my pov and I'm sticking to it

I think something beginning with A would go well with Joy. What about, erm,
Amelia-Joy
Amalie-Joy
Aelwen-Joy
