First of all, I'm not interested in any other suggestions. I'd just like to know which of these 3 names you prefer:
Adeline
Cecily
Miranda

Surname is 2 syllables and starts with a T. Middle name will be either Jane or Mary.

Miranda Mary

Adeline Mary.

Don't like the sound of Cecily and Miranda reminds me of the TV show (but lovely name otherwise!).

Growuphelen · 27/10/2017 23:05

Adeline Mary. Pronounced ine

littlechous · 25/10/2017 22:55

Adeline is a beautiful name but I would also pronounce it -ine not -een

Cecily is therefore my choice. Cecily Jane. Lovely, congratulations!

Cecily

Imabanana · 25/10/2017 22:29

Definitely Cecily, very pretty

SuperBeagle · 25/10/2017 22:29

Miranda Jane.

I don't like Cecily. I went to primary school with a Cecilia who had a terrible lisp, and I always felt like she had been saddled with the worst name for anyone with that sort of speech impediment. That has stayed with me!

I would pronounce Adeline with the "line" ending, like Caroline, Madeline and Valentine.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 25/10/2017 22:29

Adeline Mary or Miranda Jane.

Ham69 · 25/10/2017 22:28

Love Cecily.

Definitely Cecily Jane. Beautiful!

CauliflowerSqueeze · 25/10/2017 20:58

Miranda.

Cool yet lovely.

“Who’s your best friend darling?”
“Miranda, she’s so funny!”
“Well everyone loves Miranda! What about Cecily and Adeline? Don’t you like them?”
“Yes they’re ok, but Miranda’s the nicest, and everyone wants to play with her!”

You heard it here first! Wink

Miranda Jane, beautiful

Not a big fan of either of the others I’m afraid.

BernardBlacksHangover · 25/10/2017 19:48

Cecily! I love it loads. Was vetoed by DH (I'm not over it Angry).

CecilyBlue · 25/10/2017 19:42

Definitely Cecily, although I do think you should change the middle name to Blue after moi 😬

AnyaMoondial · 25/10/2017 19:41

Another for Cecily Jane. It's beautiful.
