Oooh Phoebe Rose is stunning if you can! Otherwise Phoebe Louise. Two middles? Phoebe Louise Rose?

Phoebe

Jesskir89 · 26/01/2020 22:44

My 2 girl names before finding out its a boy were pheobe and poppy so I would say pheobe

campion · 25/01/2020 13:31

Louisa Rose .
Not keen on Phoebe...reminds me of the character in James Herriot books who had a dog called Phoebe aka Feebles (apologies to all Phoebes)

TatianaLarina · 25/01/2020 13:17

Phoebe Rose Louise

(Love Phoebe btw).

I prefer Rose. I'm not sure why everyone is saying that it doesn't go with Louise, it sounds fine to me! Would Louisa flow better?

The PP who said Rose is everywhere and Phoebe is unique is incorrect; Phoebe was the 21st most popular girls name in 2018 and Rose was only 55th!

WhereShallWeMoveTo · 25/01/2020 12:18

Rose Louise is a no no.

Phoebe Louise is fine.

Phoebe Rose is lovely.

Borodeb · 25/01/2020 12:17

Phoebe

macdhui · 24/01/2020 06:01

Adore Phoebe goes well with Louise

MrsBertBibby · 24/01/2020 05:56

Rosa Louise would work, but not Rose.

Both lovely names, though, but if Louise is in stone, then Phoebe.

funmummy48 · 24/01/2020 05:33

I prefer Rose but Louise sounds much better with Phoebe which is also a very pretty name

Poorolddaddypig · 24/01/2020 05:24

Rose

17caterpillars1mouse · 23/01/2020 20:46

Love Phoebe. Rose is nice too though

PrincessLouis · 23/01/2020 20:21

Prefer Rose 🌹

Luckystar777 · 23/01/2020 19:18

Rose sounds nicer but not with Louise. I don't like Phoebe at all.

Gogolego · 23/01/2020 19:11

Phoebe Louise sounds lovely of a little 90s but in a nice way

PhoebeFriends · 23/01/2020 18:49

Phoebe (obviously)

DramaAlpaca · 23/01/2020 18:43

I prefer Rose, but not with Louise.

BobbyBlueCat · 23/01/2020 18:42

Much prefer Rose but don't like it next to Louise.

But I don't like Phoebe at all.

JosieB68 · 23/01/2020 18:11

Love the name Phoebe! X

MsChatterbox · 23/01/2020 18:05

Rose. Love this name!

BettyUnderswoob · 23/01/2020 18:05

Rose is lovely.
I’ve always thought Phoebe sounded awful. Feebee! Yuk

Tfgjiknfr · 23/01/2020 18:01

Phoebe. I don't like Rose.
It doesn't matter if it goes with the middle name or not as no one uses both names together apart from new parents announcing their kids name.

WhiteVixen · 23/01/2020 17:59

Sorry, that wasn’t really an answer to your question. I agree that Phoebe goes better with Louise.

WhiteVixen · 23/01/2020 17:59

Our choices for our now 13-week old were Phoebe or Imogen, middle name Rose. I really wanted Phoebe, but we ended up going with Imogen.
