if your child manages to survive school with them

Where do you live that people are so narrow minded?

Most people and children I know are very open minded and wouldn't bat an eyelid at any of those names, or any other unusual or foreign names!

Yes, mumsnet members seems way preoccupied in this thread and others.
I would rethink my names and open a new thread.

August Roland Hart - Nice

Cedric Amaury Storm - I don't like any of the names in this combo.

Magnus Roland - Nice

Cecily Beatrice - I love it

Charlotte Idony - Love Charlotte but not Idony

Juliet Melusine Flora - Love Juliet, Not keen on Melusine and Flora is nice but makes me think of the margarine.

Love Charlotte and Magnus.

Are the middle names family names?

viques · 11/06/2022 11:42

Aspirational names, if your child manages to survive school with them then I am sure they will go on to achieve a life which lives up to them, rolling acres, a Georgian Manor House, assorted gun dogs, a safe Conservative seat……

Erm.... is this some sort of a novel you're writing?
Because if it's an actual real baby boy you're naming you might want to simplify a bit.

Marcus and Roland are ok names, not my taste but alright.
Cedric, Amauray, Hart and Storm are all incredibly pretentious.

Girls names are much nicer.
Cecily, Beatrice
Charlotte , Flora, Juliet are all quite nice, I'd go for Juliet Charlotte myself.

Idony is a pretty name, quite unusual
Melusine never heard of it, does it have some sort of cultural/family significance?

Lizzieismagic · 11/06/2022 11:28

Cedric?
Oh my days..

DuchessOfSausage · 11/06/2022 11:26

August Roland Hart - the August ruins the flow
Cedric Amaury Storm - all awful
Magnus Roland - like
Cecily Beatrice - Beatrice Cecily is nicer
Charlotte Idony - Charlotte is nice, not keen on Idony
Juliet Melusine Flora - prefer Flora Juliet

pinklavenders · 11/06/2022 11:13

I like them all! My favourites are Cedric and Cecily- beautiful.

Velvetbee · 11/06/2022 11:12

All rather gorgeous. If you move in circles where these names are acceptable/people around you are not arseholes (I do), then go for it.

Imsittinginthekitchensink · 11/06/2022 11:07

Why don't you like the baby?

ElenaSt · 11/06/2022 11:01

August Roland Hart - ok
Cedric Amaury Storm - Storm is awful.
Magnus Roland - great name for a boring geography teacher.
Cecily Beatrice - Beatrice Cecily sounds better.
Charlotte Idony - Idony is awful.
Juliet Melusine Flora - Melusine is awful. The whole thing sounds like a plant name.

Any reason why some names have one middle and some have two? I like August/Magnus Roland, but don't like either Storm or Hart. Both feel way too trendy for my tastes. Cecily Beatrice is lovely.
