Middle name for Elodie

42 replies

I think we may finally have agreed on a name for DD2 but now need to find a middle name! Something short is preferable that helps Elodie flow to our surname beginning in L with 2 syllables...any ideas?

Thank you Smile

I know of a little girl called Elodie Elizabeth Juniper? Might be too many E’s for you but I think it’s a beautiful name

Of the names you've just listed I like Elodie Anne best. Ivy, Rae and Isla are quite of the moment I think, so more likely to date. Elodie is having a bit of a moment in the uk too, but I know a few French women in their thirties with this name too, so it feels more classic to me somehow.

Love suggestion of Elodie Pearl.

Elodie Anne seems a popular choice so farSmile. I also like Elodie Rae and Eve that someone suggested, thoughts? Otherwise we had also considered Elodie Ivy or Elodie Isla...

Love the name Elodie, so beautiful. How about Pearl as a middle name?

Dixiestamp · 09/05/2017 00:58

I would have said Elodie Anne, or Anna, as some previous posters have suggested. It's a lovely name!

@viques I tend to agree with the one syllable thing, I actually struggled to get used to Elodie (DH's suggestion) too because wanted a shorter two syllable name but I think it's pretty enough to sway me!

@Sittinonthefloor Haha DH said Melody (his idea of a joke!), Elodie Melody L wouldn't sound funny at all Hmm

Thank you everyone for your suggestions Smile

I'm so tempted to say Melody.
Elodie is lovely, agree one syllable in the middle, you've had loads of great suggestions!

Goodness, how awful! Confused

turquoise88 · 08/05/2017 19:05

I thought it was pronounced Nee-va?

Not that I've ever heard, could be wrong though. Are you confusing it with Niamh?

Rioja it's nuh-vay-uh. It's heaven spelt backwards.

Not to my taste

booellesmum · 08/05/2017 18:56

First thought was Grace but seen you can't use.
?Charlotte.

Aw I love Elodie, it's my 4 year olds middle name, she's Wren Elodie Clare.

TheWayYouLookTonight · 08/05/2017 16:07

Personally I think one syllables names work better with a three syllable first name

I agree. My first thought was Elodie Jane
