@Thedogscollar, you are correct!

@BallsToYouSue.
We have doctor named Tallulah on my ward and she is brilliant.
There are some insufferable snobs on MN

@BallsToYouSue thank you Someone said on the thread they would laugh if they heard a Doctor Daisy, glad that person is in the minority!

My dad and sister are doctors, (one junior, the other a senior consultant and former clinical director), and they would die laughing at the pomposity of someone saying they can't take Dr Daisy seriously. Ridiculous comment. HCPs aren't usually stuffy arseholes, so think Dr Daisy will be grand .

Thank you everyone. Daisy Alice seems to be winning slightly ahead of Daisy Charlotte. I think everyone's support and nice words have really cemented that Daisy is the one (not Ella). I feel less worried about it being a child's name only after looking at Daisy Ridley, Daisy Lowe, Daisy Edgar-Jones. Feisty, independent women! Also, Dr Daisy (should she want to be a doctor) sounds friendly, sunny and to be honest someone very lovely who I would trust. But I guess personal opinion only. Thank you to everyone for your help and bring on any further comments should anyone have one xx

Daisy Charlotte is my favourite 😊
I think Daisy is a very pretty name and in this day and age she can be whatever she wants to be. I know a solicitor called Darcy and a doctor called Dolce so I wouldn't be concerned.

Really like Daisy! This would be one of my top names if I was having a girl. Ella is a nice name but is becoming so common here. I’m trying to remember when naming my little boy that a middle name is almost never used and only really matters for the initial bit of when you tell people your child’s full name. I’d use Daisy for the first name for that reason

May2021Mummy · 06/03/2021 20:59

I think Daisy Alice is lovely

Fullofthejoysofspring · 06/03/2021 15:38

Charlotte Daisy

zingally · 06/03/2021 15:13

Ella Daisy.

Daisy is a cute name for child, but "hello, I'll be your surgeon today. My name is Daisy."? No.

TenThousandSpoons · 06/03/2021 09:08

Daisy with either middle name is lovely.
Daisy goes better with Arthur.
Your DS calling her “Dizzy” as a nickname is just an adorable plus

Trinacham · 06/03/2021 08:59

Ella Daisy

whenwillthemadnessend · 06/03/2021 08:41

Daisy Alice or Charlotte daisy

CharlieBoo · 06/03/2021 08:35

When my Daisy was born her big brother used to call her Dessy lol x

BrutusMcDogface · 06/03/2021 08:16

Daisy Alice 👍👍👍

By the way, I definitely wouldn’t give her the initials EW! Someone at secondary school would pick up on that for sure.

Also, I fell in love with the name we ended up giving my son, partly due to how it sounded in my little girl’s voice; I love the “dizzzzy!” anecdote! 😊

CharlieBoo · 06/03/2021 08:10

Also it’s so archaic to think that in this day and age, with how diverse the world is, that a name can stop you being anything you want be..

CharlieBoo · 06/03/2021 08:08

Daisy Alice is beautiful...

I have an 11 year old Daisy and she suits her name so much and I always think it sounds lovely.. she is girly though but feisty and strong willed..

Maryberryswoodenspoon · 06/03/2021 00:48

Definitely Ella Daisy.. it’s a beautiful name..

Mockolate · 06/03/2021 00:42

Definitely Daisy Alice

CormoranStrike · 06/03/2021 00:13

Daisy.

pinkandblueflowers · 05/03/2021 22:21

@MooseBreath we say 'Ella or Daisy?' And he says 'dizzzzyyy' 😅

If it's a toss up, ask your son which first name he likes better!

KindnessCrusader · 05/03/2021 09:09

Daisy Charlotte is lovely!

dalmatianmad · 05/03/2021 09:07

Deffo Ella.

I work with a Dr called Daisy and I can't take her seriously, I know how terrible that sounds
