I'm almost (almostWink) embarrassed to be starting another thread. But I'm nearly there with this naming malarkey!

So we have it down to these two. I love them both. We want something unusual but not ridiculously so, I think that both of these fit the bill. Though I think Iris runs the risk of entering the top100.

With regards to Juno the movie thing does not bother us at all so please don't let that sway your choice!

Ruby I think Violet will remain as a middle name, though it is beautiful!

Iris is too old-lady chic and will date quickly imo.

My vote is definitely Juno - lovely.

Juno Clementine

I reckon keep both,and see what she looks like when she arrives...we have two girls names ready,although admittedly one is more likely to be her name and the other is a sort of back up...but you get the idea...

I prefer Iris, less unusual but I think there's a trend for names ending in 'o' so Juno may date.

Iris is just more stylish imo too. Juno sounds a bit kooky.

Whatwhatwhat · 04/08/2013 15:16

I like them both.

Out of curiosity what else was on your list?

Bowlersarm the middle names can be interchangeable. Smile

Juno, for me. (Although prefer it with the middle name Clementine)

I love Juno, reminds me of Sean O'Casey's Juno and the Paycock rather than the film.
