Do these names go together as a first and middle name?

Can't have Emmeline first as DD1's name begins with 'E'.

Emmeline is after Emmeline Pankhurst (so not made up) - we're following on a tradition from DH's family of picking middle names from the names of inspirational people.

DD1's middle name is Rosalind (Rosalind Franklin).

We don't want post arriving to the house addressed to Miss E. Caractacus and not know which DD it is intended for. Hence the desire for different first initials.

I love both names, I'm just worried that they don't 'flow' well together.

Wow! That is a beautiful name! Love it

Emmeline Pankhurst not ring a bell?

I think it's beautiful. Sound fab together.

Love Emmalene (prefer it spelled this way). Definitely not made up. Why can't you have another DD's name starting with E, just out of interest?

Not sure. I love Clara but Emmeline sounds made up? I think they are both nice names but too fancy/ ott together.
