Which do you prefer the sound of …

Eliza Frances Rose

Eliza Rose Christine

Both names honour my late mum but I’m not sure which combination sounds better.

Moomin is not part of my name

You're kidding me! Smile

It's just to show how it sounds with a surname - Eliza Frances Rose Moomin doesn't flow as well as the others.

You need to factor the surname because most people go through life as, for example, Hugh Manity not Hugh Alexander James.

Your surname might be something that sounds silly with Eliza, Christine, Frances or Rose.

Moomin would be one heck of a cool surname. Would you get accused of being a troll?

Eliza Frances Rose 100%. All lovely names that work together.

Not if the surname is something like Bush.

Eliza France is Rose Bush.

Well indeed. But hopefully the OP has thought of that, and her surname won't give rise to such an obvious clash.

I'd hope so too but there's no harm in pointing it out, is there.

Definitely Eliza Frances Rose, although both names are beautiful
