What sounds better, Felicity or Fiona? Middle name would be Mary. Or should we do something like Felicity Fiona Mary?

Both dated, but Felicity is marginally better.

I like both but prefer Felicity.

Felicity is gorgeous. Fiona is very 70s to me.

Combine the two...

Felicia Mary

Felicity is lovely.

Fiona seems a tad dated.

Thanks tabby!

I don't like my name tbf.
Fiona Mary flows better but sounds older than Felicity Mary.
So Felicity Fiona Mary could be a compromise.

I like Felicity but prefer Ffion to Fiona.

tabbiemoo · 27/07/2019 22:55

Felicity much nicer - Fiona is such a dull name

JanewaysBun · 27/07/2019 22:54

Felicity!

I like both but prefer Felicity, not least because of the meaning.

OliviaPopeRules · 27/07/2019 22:35

Fiona definitely, much less common (in terms of number of people with the name)

Starrynights86 · 27/07/2019 22:21

I like felicity (Fiona is still nice though) and think felicity Fiona Mary sounds lovely.

Bubbletrouble43 · 27/07/2019 22:21

Felicity is lovely. Fiona is also nice, and I think they work nicely together

DrFoxtrot · 27/07/2019 22:20
