Daisy

If you go with Daisy, don't use May as a mn.

pantherrose · 18/10/2020 11:24

Daisy is lovely, not keen on Ruby.

FairfaxAikman · 18/10/2020 11:18

Ruby.

Daisy is fine for a little girl but far too cutesy on an adult imo.

Creamteafatty · 18/10/2020 11:09

Daisy 💮
Scarlett?

Daisy sounds much better with your surname.
Ruby Cooper is too rhyme-y.
I'm really not keen on either middle name but would pick Marie over Jane.
Something longer like Elizabeth, Rebecca or Catherine would sound better though in my opinion.

Love ruby But if I’m being picky I don’t think it goes with your surname particularly well. I agree that Daisy is not for the boardroom

Snowyn · 17/10/2020 13:23

If you go with Daisy, use Daisy Marie because Daisy Jane sounds a bit too much like 'daisy chain' to me.

Jattjewd · 17/10/2020 13:19

I prefer Ruby, but Daisy goes much better with the surname. Daisy Marie is lovely.

BabyLlamaZen · 17/10/2020 13:18

Love Ruby.

Daisy is sweet but a bit victorian servant girl/cutesy/pet cow

IndieRo · 17/10/2020 13:02

Daisy Marie

LilacSloth · 17/10/2020 12:50

Daisy Marie

WaxOnFeckOff · 17/10/2020 12:42

I prefer Ruby but it doesn't go well with Cooper. Not a fan of Daisy and then you have Daisy May Cooper from This Country fame.

Pudding01 · 17/10/2020 10:28

In my opinion, the middle names work like this:

Daisy Marie
Ruby Jane

Both lovely names. I'm a Holly Marie, so maybe that draws me to Daisy more lol x

Tillygetsit · 16/10/2020 22:50

Daisy May Cooper here too. Mind you, she's a goddess!

Llyn · 16/10/2020 22:44

Not Daisy Jane because it sounds like daisy chain.

Not Ruby Marie because it sounds a bit like rhyming slang Ruby Murray.

Daisy

HermioneKipper · 16/10/2020 21:24

Daisy. Love that name. Was on my list for a daughter

CharlieBoo · 16/10/2020 21:17

Both lovely but I much prefer daisy

DramaAlpaca · 16/10/2020 20:55

I prefer Ruby myself, but Daisy goes best with the surname.

AcrobaticCardigan · 16/10/2020 20:12

Ruby is a fabulous name!

Kanaloa · 16/10/2020 20:09

I like Daisy better but would choose Ruby because of Daisy May Cooper. It isn’t necessarily a bad association as she seems pretty cool but I wouldn’t want the same first/last name as a celebrity. Ruby is also nice.

Quizeerascal · 16/10/2020 20:08

Daisy is more classic imo, both nice names though

ComicePear · 16/10/2020 20:01

Daisy

MikeUniformMike · 16/10/2020 20:01

Of the two Daisy, but Daisy Marie is a bit hmm and Daisy Jane might be a bit too similar to daisy chain. Of the names I would choose Jane as a first name, prob. Marie as a mn.
