This is our choice if the baby is a girl.
Surname is one syllable.

Thoughts?

It's brill.

It's perfectly fine.

Polly Isabella is better than Polly Isabel.

Intuition- by changing the name Isabella to Isabelle it doesn’t reduce the amount of L’s... :) unless I’ve missed your point (which is likely due to two hours sleep)

I think Polly is lovely, however I wouldn’t put Isabella as a middle... it seems a bit “frilly”

But if you love it, then go for it and good luck :)

I like it.

Middle names aren't often used in real life anyway, so bella/belle shouldn't be an issue.

Polly is a lovely name. I can't imagine an adult called polly but I think by the time the current generation is older there will be a lot of names that I consider child names, as adult names?

@intuition I think I prefer Isabella to Isabelle

It's fine. I'm not wild about Polly, though. It's bordering on cutesy for my taste, personally. I'd make sure the initials with your surname don't spell out a word you might not like, such as P.I.G.
