We've narrowed it down to a shortlist of three, but can't seem to decide. Middle names would probably be:

Iris Elizabeth
Miriam Louisa
Anna Josephine (or Anna Beatrice)

Surname is one syllable starting with R. Thanks!

Anna.

Love all of those. Miriam is the most unusual without being weird. And Miri for short is lovely.

Iris

Like all except Miriam! Sounds a bit prim and proper to me. Others lovely names though.

How refreshing....

All lovely names Iris my fave

Ooh - good list.

Iris Elizabeth sounds very sophisticated but not over done. I like it a lot!

Mariam is very nice but I knew a girl at school called Mariam (nn Mim) who was a bit of a fuddy duddy which puts me off. Not keen on Louisa (sounds dated to me).

Anna Josephine or Beatrice is lovely and simple but just seems a bit plain in comparison to Iris Elizabeth.

I like Anna Smile
It's my top name if I have a DD one day.
Miriam is a name I like too though
