I love the name Claire!

I like Claire Louise best (Elise is nice, but somehow doesn’t work with Claire)

Claire Louise.
And it's a beautiful name!

I think Claire is a nice name. I secretly admire the Claire who was in my class at school, she was the only Claire too. I would choose Elise.

Claire Louise

Claire is really beautiful but is considered a bit 70's/80's, so I'd pick a middle name that isn't also dated. Elise is the best of your list, but Louisa would sound better than Louise, Elena better than Elaine, Madeleine better than Maureen etc.

Please don't call your baby 'Claire", it's a really shit 70s name, from someone who was there.
Plus I've been a teacher for over 20 years and have only ever taught 1 Claire.
Don't do it!

Elise or Louise
