My top 15 - what's your favourite from it?

63 replies

I'm a bit skeptic about posting this considering yesterday, but I've left out all hyphen names from my top list, haha.

I currently have 15 names I love for girls, and although I'm not expecting (I will be ttc within the next few years, I hope, currently at uni haha so I'm name collecting for now, but going into childcare, so mum forums are really helpful for me), I would love to know what your favourite off my list is.

I'm not currently looking for any suggestions, so if you don't like any of the names, choose the one you hate the least (Wink) or, just don't comment Grin.

My list right now:

Imogen Delilah Kate
Lettie Ophelia Jane
Beatrice Lavinia Mary
Violet Rosalind May
Elsie May Kathleen
Eleanor Iris Pearl
Florence Eliza May
Jemima Emily Florence
Amy Beatrice Louise
Lillian Elsie Maude
Martha Valerie Elise
Agatha Lily Frances
Lucy Augusta Claire
Maude Ismeria Grace (Iz-mair-ee-ah)
Dorothea Adelaide Mary

Thank you.

Imogen Delilah Kate - Like all of them.

Lettie Ophelia Jane - Don't like Lettie at all, and it doesn't really work as a stand-alone name for me - sounds like it should be short for something else. Love Ophelia. Jane ok for a middle name but quite boring.

Beatrice Lavinia Mary - Really like Mary, don't mind Lavinia, not keen on Beatrice at all.

Violet Rosalind May - love Violet and Rosalind, don't like May at all.

Elsie May Kathleen - I really like Elsie (much prefer Elsa, was on my shortlist for DD twenty years ago) but Elsie is becoming very popular. Also you can expect Elsa with Elsie as a nn to become pretty over-used now because of Frozen. I think Elsie is going to be the new Ellie/Lily/Evie.

Eleanor Iris Pearl - Like all of them.

Florence Eliza May - like Florence and Eliza

Jemima Emily Florence - love Jemima and really like that combination

Amy Beatrice Louise - Don't like any of them.
L
Lillian Elsie Maude - don't like at all

Martha Valerie Elise - I'm totally over Martha and I don't like the other two

Agatha Lily Frances - Agatha is awful, Lily too common, Frances is ok.

Lucy Augusta Claire - don't like

Maude Ismeria Grace (Iz-mair-ee-ah) - don't like

Dorothea Adelaide Mary - Hate Adelaide, like the other two.

Not Dorothea, but Adelaide is a beautiful name I would have that as a first, trumping the rest. You've a fab taste in names btw

ElBombero · 04/03/2014 04:42

Beatrice or Eleanor xx

Maude Ismeria - but not grace. Maude is such a beautiful name, underused I think. You've got great taste in names.
