Right, am outing myself totally here. But we can't agree on any names! DD3 due at Christmas. DDs1 and 2 are Isobel Edith and Alice Eleanor. Give me a first-name-middle-name combination that would go with those!

Rosanna (Rose NN) Esme ?

Your daughters names sound slightly medieval so I'm going to suggest:

Matilda
Philippa
Juliet
Sophia
Georgina
Florence
Penelope
Francesca
Emmeline
Marianne
Beatrice
Louisa

I do think Rose goes well with Isobel and Alice.

I was going to suggest Harriet Elspeth. Then you added the shortlist so am struck by how often Rose is mentioned.

To me, Orla Rose stands out but I don't think the combination fits with your other DDs' names.

Estelle/ Estella as middle name

Thea
Heidi
Nora
Una
Erica

Holly Maria
Sophia Grace
Evelyn Mary

Olivia Eve or Olivia Esme would fit perfectly.

Our current suggestions are

Orla Rose
Rose Olivia
Rose Lydia
Rose Ethel

From your suggestions I like Madeleine Rose (but DH doesn't like Madeleine and it also rhymes with a name we can't use ....); DH loves Tess but I am not keen; I like Gabriella/Gabriella but DH isn't keen; and I really dislike Lucy for some reason.

One problem is that the names we used before had family connections but there's nothing left in our families that we like/can use ... so that 'special' feeling is hard to create!

I'm seeing an AEIOU pattern with an E middle name. You have an A and I so the next logical option is U if you follow the pattern.

So how about Ursula Eden?

It's a good, strong, confident name.

Lucy Elizabeth

If you want a name that fits I think it should have the 's'/soft c or z sound in it to match Isobel and Alice.

Dinah Elisabeth

Ellen Alexandra

Coral Genevieve

wigglesrock · 05/12/2016 10:46

Tess
Mary
Anna
Jean
Sadie
Julia
Gabrielle
Meg

I'd use any if the above for a first name. Middle names we tend to use family names or a second choice first name. If you're looking to continue the E theme as a second name :
Elizabeth
Enid
Emma
Elise
Elsie
Eliza
Elena
Evelyn

Lydia Emmeline
Mary Elizabeth
Daphne Susannah
