Opinions? Our surname begins with an H.

Daisy Bell is a song. It's awful together.

NigellasGuest · 14/08/2013 19:51

I like Samantha, it's definitely due a revival!

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 14/08/2013 19:48

I like Daisy. I like Belle as a nn. I don't like Daisy Belle. Not overfond of Samantha but Daisy Samantha works, whereas Daisy Belle Samantha doesn't imho.

CarriMarie · 14/08/2013 19:45

Daisy Samantha sounds lovely, would definitely drop Belle.

Iamnormalish · 14/08/2013 17:42

Daisy is a lovely name.

I like Daisy Samantha but if you really still wanted to have the Belle then Daisy Samantha Belle works better than Daisy Belle Samantha imo.

I reckon Daisy Duke's middle name was very likely to have been Belle....Sorry too eighties american! Daisy Samantha much better!

SonyaL80 · 14/08/2013 15:50

Not sure all three names go together. Similar to what people have said above, Daisy Belle is a little too cutesy. I like Daisy Samantha :). I also really like Belle as a separate name, it?s very pretty and not that common.

Allthatglitters789 · 14/08/2013 15:21

Daisy belle is a bit airy fairy however daisy Samantha is lovely.

PassTheTwiglets · 14/08/2013 15:18

For some reason Daisy Belle is waaaay too cutesy but either name by itself isn't. Belle is quite classy and lovely as a stand alone; no idea why it sounds so twee as a second name! Perhaps because you don't hear it as a name in its own right, it sounds more like a suffix to the first name... you know how you sometimes elongate a first name as a nickname eg. Penny might be nn'd Pennypops...

I know two middle aged Daisy's, both with very serious jobs. I think it is a bit of MN obsession that it isn't an adult name, it never seems to have bothered Daisy x2.

Jellyandicecreamplease · 14/08/2013 15:16

Agree with Badtime - Daisy Belle sounds like a cow's name. Daisy Samantha better.

However, I also agree with AttilaTheMeerkat - Daisy sounds like a cute children's name - not as good as an adult name?

AttilaTheMeerkat · 14/08/2013 15:09

I'd go for Samantha personally speaking. Daisy is not a great name to live with in adulthood.

AmandaPandtheTantrumofDoom · 14/08/2013 15:04

Daisy Belle is a bit twee for my tastes. Reminds me of when DD1 was learning about plants and kept calling daisies daisy bells, like bluebells. Also sounds rather as if it aching for a hyphen they flow into one another so much.

Daisy Samantha is much nicer IMO. Or Daisy Samantha Belle.

natandmat · 14/08/2013 15:01

I like Daisy Samantha Belle x

lovestogarden · 14/08/2013 14:50

I'd probably go for Samantha as a first name, but I'm not mad about it (maybe the SamCam/SamFox associations). Belle is a bit of a 'non name'. Isn't there a Disney character called Belle?

Daisy is cute, but I can't imagine an adult called Daisy for some reason.

Daisy Belle sounds like a cow. Daisy Samantha is fine.

Pobblewhohasnotoes · 14/08/2013 13:02

The three don't go together and as others have said Daisy Belle is twee. Daisy Samantha is better, or the other way round.

Overcooked · 14/08/2013 10:56

Daisy Belle is awful, truly awful.

Daisy Samantha much much better.

Choccyhobnob · 14/08/2013 10:55

Yes much better!

Layl77 · 14/08/2013 10:51

Daisy Samantha lovely :)

SoupDragon · 14/08/2013 10:50

Yes Samantha is a family name, would just Daisy Samantha be better?

Definitely.
