Baby due in June. We don't know whether it's a boy or girl.

We have a boy already - Dylan Keane Leonard. Surname is one syllable beginning with T.

Baby will have 2 middle names, the second of which will be Mary after a family member.

Honest (but not brutal) opinions please!

Arianna
Amelie
Freya
Georgie (NOT Georgia/Georgina)
Imogen
Tavia
Tegan
Tierney

Arianna Mary and Freya Mary sound the best with Dylan, I think.

I suggested Alice to DH but he turned his nose up. I don't like Sylvia or Rosemary I'm afraid.

Rockaby, my friend said the same thing about Georgie Arianna Mary which is a real shame...

Imogen was on our list and sounds lovely but DH has gone off it. Olivia is also lovely but it's my niece's middle name and Violet is my other niece's name!

I love the names Arianna and Mary, but the ie sound at the end of Georgie and the A sound at the start of Arianna sort of run into each other.

I quite like the suggestion of ...Sylvia Mary. How about Rosemary as a middle name on its own?

Thanks awwlook for actually reading my update! I really dislike Elizabeth. The others are nice but there is a Bella in the family already so would prefer not to use a -belle or -Bella name.

Like:

  • Freya
  • Imogen

Dislike:

  • Tavia
  • Tierney
  • Tegan

Arianna and Amelie are fine, but Amelie sounds awful when it's not said by someone French, IMO. And Arianna (I prefer the spelling Ariana) is so heavily associated with Ariana Grande at the moment that I'm a bit put off.

I like Georgie as a nickname, but not as a full name.

Update - we are pretty much decided on Georgie as a first name and Mary as the second middle name.

Current fave is Georgie Arianna Mary. What do you think? Any other suggestions for the first middle name?

Freya - beautiful name!

crapfatbanana · 14/03/2017 17:13

Georgie Elisabeth Mary

oliversmummy26 · 14/03/2017 17:03

Arianna is top of our list at the moment (though we're spelling it Ariana and pronouncing "ari-ahna"...likely to shorten to Ari) and Freya is also high on our list, very pretty names

mum2be2boys · 14/03/2017 11:48

My favourites are Freya, Imogen and Amelie. Not keen on the others I'm afraid.

I'd avoid a T name if your surname also begins with a T, but that's purely personal taste.

ChippieBeanAndHorro · 13/03/2017 19:26

I like Octavia and think Tavia is a very cute nickname :)

Kazzawazza69 · 13/03/2017 19:22

I wondered what response I would get on Tavia. I found it in a baby names book - apparently a short form of Octavia. I must admit I haven't mentioned it to DH yet and he'll probably hate it but I really like it at the moment 😊

If it had to be one off the list, I'd go with Freya or Imogen, but not that keen on either of those.

ILikeSalmon · 13/03/2017 16:54

All lovely except for the ones beginning with T which are bloody horrible chavtastic

meettherussians · 13/03/2017 16:36

In all honesty- they are all too twee for my taste, sorry. But like Freya best.

CakeRattleandRoll · 13/03/2017 16:33

I like Freya.

And Tegan, but only if pronounced with a short 'e' - the traditional Cornish spelling for this would be Tegen.

Rockaby · 13/03/2017 14:36

I really like Freya and Imogen.

Smellofpaint · 13/03/2017 13:59

I don't like the T names. Never heard of Tavia or Tierney.

I like Imogen the most. I know a Georgie and Arianna and they are lovely names too.

Sophronia · 13/03/2017 13:49

Freya

buckyou · 13/03/2017 13:19

What about Talia?

BaymaxismyHero · 13/03/2017 13:13

Freya is lovely
