We chose Emily because it’s classic and simple and would like a timless middle name to go with it and we’re choosing between these. I know You can’t really go wrong with any of them but I’d appreciate your thoughts.

thank you

Emily Jane is lovely. I am 65. There was always an Emma-Jane or Sarah-Jane in my year. Always known as EJ or SJ.

Lovely and due a come back.

My ex had a Sister called Emily Elizabeth, it’s nice. How about Emily Victoria?

Oooh, Emily Victoria is nice!

mathanxiety · 16/12/2025 04:01

I'm not really keen on any of them.

I'd suggest
Emily Eloise
Emily Charlotte
Emily Sophia
Emily Madeleine
Emily Eleanore
Emily Elspeth

Emily Elizabeth is lovely

LivingTheDreamish · 16/12/2025 02:08

Emily Elizabeth.

Emily Rose is a bit predictable and Emily Jane is a bit too Bronte.

Fernsrus · 15/12/2025 23:56

Emily Jane

Giraffehaver · 15/12/2025 23:56

Emily Jane. Classic

Jamclag · 15/12/2025 23:56

All nice enough but Emily Jane is the more interesting of your options.

I prefer Rose Emily or Rose Elizabeth if being honest though.

Pettenell · 15/12/2025 23:47

Emily Jane is my favourite.

Xcxcxcxc · 15/12/2025 23:11

Emily Rose.
Emily Jane.
Emily Elizabeth is too clunky.

WhosMadeline · 15/12/2025 23:07

Emily Jane- that was Emily Bronte’s name.
Emily Rose- terrifying horror movie
Elizabeth Emily flows better than Emily Elizabeth.

Emily Jane is the winner.

Lisanne55 · 15/12/2025 22:36

Emily Rose was very common at one point. Jane is quite a boring name so I'd go for Emily Elizabeth. I also like Emily Anne - we had that in mind for a girl at one point. You could also consider Emily Eliza or Emily Elsie.

Shadesofscarlett · 15/12/2025 22:30

I think Elizabeth Jane or Elizabeth Rose sound better

Whydontyoucarryon · 15/12/2025 22:29

Emily Jane. Think it's time Jane became more popular again.

bridgetreilly · 15/12/2025 22:24

Emily Elizabeth or perhaps Emily Beth.

HarryVanderspeigle · 15/12/2025 22:07

Every female from my era had Jane or Louise as a middle name. Don't do it!

WorriedMillie · 15/12/2025 21:21

I think a 3 syllable (or more) first name is better followed by a shorter second name
(IMHO)

LilyLemonade · 15/12/2025 21:18

Emily Rose flows beautifully.
All your options are very pretty.

Pranksters · 15/12/2025 20:22

Rose is so dull as a middle name, it’s every girl’s name (along with Grace and May).

Moreteaandchocolate · 15/12/2025 17:47

Emily Elizabeth is my favourite, I think the alliteration is very pretty.

Emily Jane is nice enough but not as pretty sounding.

Emily Rose makes me think of the horror movie and I’ve gone off Rose as a middle name because it’s so overused.
