Opinions?

Also what middle name goes with Camille?

Already have a Grace Elisabeth and a Maya Rose so none of them please!

My 8 year old neice is Esme Camille. I think it's lovely.

Hedwig3 · 16/05/2010 17:17

Camille is lovely.

Nobody knows how to pronounce Esme, it will drive you crazy!

dizzydixies · 16/05/2010 09:13

good grief, this thread is from July 08

maybe pgiwithnumber3 has given up trying to have the longest gestation period in history and has not only had baby but named her as well

dizzydixies · 16/05/2010 09:11

I love Camille and Esme is pretty too, either would go with your other dd's names

mumofEandE · 16/05/2010 09:00

We have a 4 yr old Esme Violet!!

My daughter is called Esme Paige. I think a second name with just one syllable may sound better but really you just need to love the names

BTW there are two Esme's in DDs infant school, so getting more popular. If that matters to you...

love them both

Camille Rae?

Lizzylou · 10/07/2008 21:24

Esme

Evelynsmum · 10/07/2008 21:24

I love Esme...if I didn't already know a little girl with that name would be considering it for DD2.

Camille is lovely topo and probably more unusal.

expatinscotland · 10/07/2008 21:20

I prefer Camille

nailpolish · 10/07/2008 21:19

janeite · 10/07/2008 21:17

Esme Violet
Esme Joy (love this as a middle name)

I love Esme; I think it's a beautiful name. Not that I dislike Camille but it does run the risk of being misread as Camilla which could be a pain.

snooks · 10/07/2008 19:51

Camille Hope
Camille Iris (sorry 2 syllables)
