Emily Primrose 💗

Not a fan of any of your boys names sorry

NameChange30 · 29/01/2020 22:29

I'm intrigued about the combinations; why not choose the first name you like best, and only then choose a middle name?

I like Daniel and Tobias (Toby) as first names.
Not a big fan of Michael or Benedict, I prefer Benjamin.

Abigail is my favourite of your girl's names, Emily is ok but a bit boring/overused, and I dislike Pearl.

emilybrontescorsett · 29/01/2020 22:25

I really like Michael Tobias.
From your girls list I like Emily best.

Astronica · 27/01/2020 23:57

Michael Tobias (though like Benedict as well)

Abigail Primrose (and would like Iris Emily as well)

Daniel Elliott

Pearl. But not with Iris, even though I love both names separately. Pearl Iris makes me think of how cataracts look. (Sorry!)

user133367 · 27/01/2020 22:06

Benedict and Pearl. Though I've always really liked Michael and Tobias so that is a close second. The other three I really can't stand for how bland they are.

bridgetreilly · 27/01/2020 22:01

Which name do you prefer?

Michael Tobias
Daniel Elliott
Benedict Thomas

I really like Tobias Michael. ;) But of those three, Benedict Thomas.

Emily Primrose
Abigail Primrose
Pearl Iris

I don't really like any of these. Pearl Iris are both nice, but I don't think the two names go well together.

Daniel Elliott

I’m not at all keen on Primrose but I like Abigail Pearl

MarshaBradyo · 27/01/2020 19:50

Thomas
Elliott

Emily

Are the ones I like but quite traditional so could do with a flowery / less traditional middle name

DramaAlpaca · 27/01/2020 19:48

The boys' combinations are all OK. Daniel is my favourite. I'd spell Elliot like that, Elliott is the usual spelling of the surname version. Actually I wouldn't have Daniel & Elliot together, the 'el' sounds run into each other.

I'm not keen on the girls' names, mainly because I can't stand Primrose. I don't like Pearl either. Emily is nice.

Emily Primrose and Pearl Iris are joint top for me. I don’t like Abigail.

ElizabethMainwaring · 27/01/2020 19:38

Daniel is definitely ready for a revival.
