I posted few days ago on behalf of my best friend. She has since had baby two days ago. She originally announced the name as Clementine Florence but she rang me in tears today as she isn't sure that's what she wants to call baby! I said I would ask again in here.

Its a toss up between Clementine Florence or Clemency Florentine. Baby will be known as Clemmie. Grandma was Florencia but friend doesn't like that.

Yep - Florentine just makes me think of biscuits or people from Florence! Clementine Florence.

Personally I'd go for Clementine - but the names are so similar your friend just needs to pick the one she likes the most!
Especially if her DD is going to be known as Clemmie. It doesn't matter which one she picks - they are both equally nice.

Clementine Florence 100%

Meant to say grandma died during pregnancy very suddenly so friend wants to name baby after her.
