Sylvie Elowen
Lowenna Fleur

Elowen I like because it’s a bit stronger but worried it looks better on paper than as said.

I like Elodie but it's becoming very common. Sylvie Elowen is lovely. Danica will get shortened to Dani. Lowenna - I guessed was Cornish but I think there are nicer Cornish names than this.

EyesAsGreenAsAFreshPickledToad · 23/03/2022 18:20

Sylvie Elowen is the best name. Elodie and Tabitha are also ok.

I don't like Fleur.

Dannica and Lowenna sound like laxatives not real names.

Elodie Fleur - Beautiful
Fleur Elodie - Nice but doesn't flow as well as Elodie Fleur
Elowen Fleur - Gorgeous, probably my favourite
Danica Fleur - Not keen
Sylvie Fleur - Not keen
Sylvie Elowen - Not keen
Lowenna Fleur - Not keen
Tabitha Fleur - Prefer to the 4 above, but not a nice as Elodie/Elowen/Fleur

buddy79 · 22/03/2022 23:24

Elowen is my favourite, before I’d even read your comment.

MrsEricBana · 22/03/2022 23:23

I would focus more on the first name because middle rarely said out loud. For me Xanthe is just beautiful and like Elodie and Fleur too.

CPL593H · 22/03/2022 22:45

Elodie Fleur or Fleur Elodie. Both lovely.

DramaAlpaca · 22/03/2022 22:34

I like Lowenna best, gorgeous name. Danica is quite nice too, and Sylvie Elowen.

Least favourite is Tabitha Fleur. Tabitha is a cat's name to me and putting Fleur after it makes me think of Tabby Fur. So that's a no.

Phantom1 · 22/03/2022 22:33

Elowen sounds like the Spanish branch of the Owen family!

CoastalWave · 22/03/2022 22:29

None of them.

WeasilyPleased · 22/03/2022 22:28

I'm going to vote for Danica. It's a lovely substantial name. Very lyrical. Danica Fleur sounds well balanced and pretty. Not rough at all!

organicoatmilk · 22/03/2022 22:24

Elodie Fleur
Fleur Elodie
Elowen Fleur
Danica Fleur
Sylvie Fleur
Sylvie Elowen
Lowenna Fleur
Tabitha Fleur

I dislike Elodie, Elowen, Lowenna and Tabitha. I love Sylvie Fleur!

Mumofgirls2017 · 22/03/2022 21:52

love Xanthe too

Mumofgirls2017 · 22/03/2022 21:51

Elodie Fleur
sylvie elowen
Tabitha Fleur

My favourites, nice list

PierresPotato · 22/03/2022 20:24

Xanthe if you like it. I wouldn't let one relative put you off.

Ianthe is really properly pronounced ee-anthe the eye-anthe is a British thing that annoys my Greek friends. I know an Ianthe who for some reason people see as Ian ans she always gets mistaken in emails for a man

Xanthe is so beautiful.
Xanthe Fleur
And if not
Fleur Elodie.

Luredbyapomegranate · 22/03/2022 20:01

I love Elowen - but how about Ianthe (Eye-an-thee) rather than Xanthe? It’s similar but more grown up and elegant

In order -

Ianthe Fleur - elegant, unusual without being out there
Elowen Sylvie - very Celtic and slightly mystic combo! the downside is she might be another Ellie
Sylvie Elowen - Sylvie is lovely - shimmery, but I probably wouldn’t want to be called it as an adult

Lowenna is ok
Danica I think is a bit nothing-y
Elodie I find very fussy, will date, and she’ll likely end up one of many Ellies.

PierresPotato · 22/03/2022 19:58

Lowenna is pretty.
Danica I'm not keen and I imagine it being shortened by friends to Dani which I don't like.

20viona · 22/03/2022 19:55

Elodie Fleur

Zillamop · 22/03/2022 19:52

Elowen got autocorrected to Eileen

Zillamop · 22/03/2022 19:51

Elodie Fleur is nice. Or how about Xanthe Lowenna (ignore the person who made a cutting remark) or Eileen Sylvie?

DogsAndGin · 22/03/2022 19:48

Elodie Fleur 9
Fleur Elodie 9
Elowen Fleur 4
Danica Fleur 1 rough
Sylvie Fleur 2 dreary
Sylvie Elowen same as above
Lowenna Fleur 2
Tabitha Fleur 8

DoorLion · 22/03/2022 19:43

Sylvie Fleur is my favourite.

ozymandiusking · 22/03/2022 19:42

I like Lowenna Fleur, also love Xanthe. Tell relative she's your baby and it doesn't matter whether she likes the name or not.

Lilacsparkles · 22/03/2022 19:37

Agree on Elowen, it looks so beautiful but I find it a bit awkward to say? I just head L O N but maybe that’s just me! I love most of your names, I think Fleur is great, uncommon but pretty and not too out there. I also love Sylvie and Elodie. Less keen on Tabitha and Lowenna. I don’t like Danica, I just don’t personally like the sound.
