Love all 3 names, can't decide which one to go for/flows best with the surname 'Green'.....
Charlotte
Alice
Anna

@Classica

Charlotte.

There's more of a noticeable demarcation between first name and surname with Charlotte whereas Anna and Alice both seem to roll into Green.

Agree with this.

I love all 3 but would probably go for Anna as it’s a lot less popular

ICouldHaveCheckedFirst · 09/08/2021 19:56

Going against the grain here, but I would avoid Anna.
'Anna Green' in some parts of the country might be followed by the response 'and a green what?'
Charlotte offsets the short surname beautifully.
Alice is fine too.

  1. Anna
  2. Charlotte

I don't think C. Green is a big deal, any more than A. Green - I knew one at school and no one ever mentioned it that I know of, I suppose "sea green" doesn't sound rude so is not especially teasable.

GintyMcGinty · 09/08/2021 17:36

I like all 3.

At a push I prefer this order

Charlotte
Anna
Alice

But you wont go wrong these are excellent names. Classics that have stood the test of time.

shapes1 · 09/08/2021 17:36

Alice

Lulu1919 · 09/08/2021 17:32

Charlotte gets shortened and I've got a 'thing ' about that ha ha

Lulu1919 · 09/08/2021 17:31

Alice and Anna are my faves

AnnaSW1 · 09/08/2021 17:28

Oh I just saw your surname. Surely C green will invite comments

lljkk · 09/08/2021 17:23

Alice Green doesn't sound good to me, I think maybe the consonants clash.

AnnaSW1 · 09/08/2021 17:20

Anna!!! Grin

TheDistortion · 09/08/2021 17:16

I had to Google the “well known Charlotte Green” and I am a r4 listener so I don’t think that should put you off.
In order of names I like Charlotte, Anna, Alice but with Green my order is Charlotte, Alice, Anna.

RhonaRed · 09/08/2021 17:13

Charlotte or Alice.
I too think Anna Green doesn't sound or flow quite as well.

Maui69 · 09/08/2021 17:09

Anna
Charlotte
Alice

30degreesandmeltinghere · 09/08/2021 17:08

Who the f*is Alice? Would put me off!!

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 09/08/2021 17:01
  1. Anna (my favourite by a long way)
  2. Charlotte
  3. Alice
MarshaBradyo · 09/08/2021 16:59

Least favourite is Alice

Other two are nice

mistermagpie · 09/08/2021 16:58

I like them all but Alice is my favourite. I can't stand Charlie so I would personally avoid Charlotte just in case!

LizzieBet14 · 09/08/2021 16:47

Alice ❤️

stopringingme · 09/08/2021 16:38

Alice
If I was choosing to put a middle name I would go for Alice Charlotte Green.

Roselilly36 · 09/08/2021 16:35

Charlotte, then Anna, not keen on Alice.

AertexShirt · 09/08/2021 16:32

I have one of these names for my DD but love them all. I think Charlotte Green is the name of a radio 4 newsreader if that affects your view at all!
