I like Nicholas Edward, nice solid name.
I like Flora and Jessica but they don't go together. I'd go for
Flora Grace
Flora Anne
Flora Harriet

Or
Jessica Rose
Jessica Grace
Jessica Anne

Lovely names.

MrsRachel85 · 26/08/2018 11:09

Love Flora but don’t think it goes with Jessica because of the ‘a’ sound. Jessica is a very 90s name I think, and Flora has a lovely vintage vibe that’s popular right now

Nicholas Edward is nice but I prefer Edward Nicholas 😊

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 26/08/2018 10:55

Flora is lovely !
How about Flora Alice ?

fattyboomboomboom · 26/08/2018 00:07

No on Flora, sorry. Laura is lovely or Lara.

TheDowagerCuntess · 25/08/2018 21:57

Not keen on Flora at all. Think it has been tarnished by the spread.

Also don't think it flows well with Jessica.

Nicholas is good - used to be much more common, but not so much any more, so he'd probably be the only one in his class.

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 25/08/2018 21:55

Fleur is urgh.

Wishicouldsleep · 25/08/2018 21:47

Nicholas will 99% sure to be shortened to Nick. So as long as you like Nick then go for it.

I don't like Flora. It reminds me of stomach bacteria?? Or Flora buttery?

AnElderlyLadyOfMediumHeight · 25/08/2018 21:44

Both lovely names.

I do like them both very much, but would be concerned about the margarine connection.

rebelrosie12 · 25/08/2018 20:55

Love flora and Edward. Not the others.

LarkDescending · 25/08/2018 20:53

Lovely choices OP.

MikeUniformMike · 25/08/2018 18:32

I like both suggestions.
Jessica Fleur is nice too.
Nick is a great name.

AdaColeman · 25/08/2018 18:26

Yes, all lovely, especially Flora.

denisehilton · 25/08/2018 18:25

I personally like Nicholas Edward very much. It sounds pleasant to the ears.

ReginaPhalange89 · 25/08/2018 18:24

I love Jessica ( I have one!) But I agree it doesn't really flow with Flora. They're like two different eras of name if that makes sense.

Nicholas is lovely too , great name that will age well

kenandbarbie · 25/08/2018 18:18

I like your choices op

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 25/08/2018 18:17

Really great names.

Love Flora.

Like Nick or Nico

Good choices op

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 25/08/2018 18:12

Flora Edith and Nicholas John.

SuperstarDJ · 25/08/2018 17:59

I like Flora but not Jessica unless it has a specia meaning to you.

I like Edward. Not fussed on Nicholas but it’s OK.

sansouci · 25/08/2018 17:57

I prefer Fleur to Flora. Isn't there a margarine called Flora?

bridgetreilly · 25/08/2018 17:54

I like them, though I think I agree with the pp that Flora Jessica doesn't flow brilliantly.

How about:
Flora Jemima
Flora Jennifer
Flora Juliet
