Do you think it's tacky to use princess as a middle name ? I would use it as a first name but dp won't have it .. see previous thread julia alicia rose is an option and Lilly rose . But now I'm thinking julia princess Alicia rose or same with Lilly as I really would love to include it somewhere if I'm not allowed to use it as a first name ..I also love julia winter rose but mad struck on princess being used somewhere !

Hell no to princess, anywhere, but winter rose is really lovely as a middle name :)

MiniMaxi · 23/11/2016 14:49

Another vote for Julia Winter Rose! If she'll be a winter baby, ideally

MyWineTime · 22/11/2016 23:37

No, it's bloody awful!
Don't do it.

rainbow99 · 22/11/2016 23:23

In answer to your original question, yes it's tacky, very tacky. Sorry!

Bellaposy · 22/11/2016 22:39

So, so bad. So bad. Your daughter wouldn't thank you for it.

KERALA1 · 22/11/2016 22:36

Keep it as a nickname within the family. She will thank you later

Pemba · 22/11/2016 22:17

Your other names, like Julia and Alicia, are lovely. Please don't ruin it by sticking Princess in there. It's tacky.

I like winter rose. I really don't like princess. Beyond it not being a name, I have an unfair expectation that a 'princess' would be spoilt, unexceptional academically and bratty. Don't know why I just do. If you want to use an unusual word that describes how you feel about your daughter , I think adorabelle, cherished, precious, joy etc whilst not to my personal taste, would be much better.

Amira Rose?

user1471461436 · 22/11/2016 21:11

I think amira means princess

Deadsouls · 22/11/2016 21:06

No no no to Princess

QueenOfTheNaps · 22/11/2016 21:05

Please no Princess.

FellOutOfBed2wice · 22/11/2016 21:03

What about Sadie, that means Princess.

I know one. She's in a senior role and it's just her name

MadameCholetsDirtySecret · 22/11/2016 20:42

Children become adults. Can you imagine a mature woman wanting such a ridiculous name?

SheepyFun · 22/11/2016 20:40

I have a lucky (distant) relative with the first name Princess. She's now known by her middle name, but I would expect that everything official still has it on. That must make school fun.... Please don't inflict it on your own child.

puglife1 · 22/11/2016 20:32

Don't do it.

LittleMissMama93 · 22/11/2016 20:25

Don't do it! It makes even the prettiest names sound tacky! Sad

DownWithThisSortaThing · 22/11/2016 20:22

No don't do it. I don't think she will thank you when she's older.

However I do really like winter

hickorydickorycock · 22/11/2016 20:18

OMG Nooooooooooooooooooo super tacky!!

StealthPolarBear · 22/11/2016 20:17

In general I'm not keen but I know a woman called princess and it very quickly became unremarkable iyswim

GazingAtStars · 22/11/2016 20:16

Well...winter rose isn't that much better than princess when you put them together

AyeAmarok · 22/11/2016 20:15

Why do you want to include "Princess" in her name?

I've always wanted to know, but never met one IRL.
