Middle name for Florence

Really love Florence Olivia but does it sound too like Laurence Olivier? Definitely set on Florence. Other options are Florence Annabel or Florence Elizabeth. Thanks

My grandmother was called Florence Sarah Ann Oliver (the latter was her surname!)

I do love it, and she was a wonderful woman and nanna.

I think both Florence Olivia and Florence Isabella are beautiful.

I think it sounds better with a single syllable name as florence is quite busy looking.

pick a family name

Florance Olivia is lovely, But I would also consider

Louise
Isabel
Rose, might be a bit flowery
Jane

I would go with a short middle name rather than something like Elizabeth. But I'd also be tempted to look at family names see if anything fits.

Florence Rose is lovely.

My first thought before opening the thread was Olivia!

Lonecatwithkitten · 20/11/2021 23:50

Florence Louise immediately popped into my head.

My little girl is Florence Thea

All these names are a bit predictable, no? Florence, Isabella, Olivia... very popular and overdone. If you really must have Florence I would pick something a bit more unexpected for a middle name. Any family names that would have some meaning?

Synchrony · 20/11/2021 22:32

I think Florence Olivia is fine.
