Opinions on Juno?

I think it’s elegant while being spunky and would balance it out with a very feminine middle name like Evangeline or Isadora. What do you think?

I think with middle names just go with one you really like. I almost never actually say my DD's middle name except when filling in forms! Just make sure it doesn't spell something embarrassing. Grin

I think it's great. I know a gorgeous little Juno and I never once thought it was pretentious.
Juno Isadora is lovely.

What middle names would you all think? I’m liking Juno Evangeline a lot

I like Juno, but not with the middle names you're suggesting. Although I also like Evangeline, but perhaps not Isadora.

I love it (and other Classical names, have a lovely friend called Persephone) but it is also the name of 3 dogs I know Grin

I like it

SuperstarDJ · 05/01/2019 21:36

On paper i like it but in reality I’d feel like a bit of a dick calling out that name in the park.

I do really like it but I'm also at the right age that it's not past the association with the film for me yet, so it depends if that bothers you I suppose!

I like Juno. I think it's feminine enough - Evangeline or Isadora takes it over the top.

StandardLampski · 05/01/2019 21:33

I like it a lot. Was one of my choices!

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 05/01/2019 21:33

I like it. Possibly being shortened to June would bother me though, which I don’t like.
