Love both. Daisy way too popular though.

For me it would be Heidi Louise.

hughsieoxf · 05/08/2009 13:07

I love Heidi! I'm considering Adelheid (Heidi's mum in the books) or Adelaide to get the nick name though.

Daisy is also cute, but I personally prefer it as a nickname for Margaret.

Heidi is prettier. And I always worry about calling children 'daisy' or 'snowflake' or something that they may turn out to be great galumphing clumsy girls and then it would just be ironic!

I can see the appeal of Daisy May when you have a little cute pink bundle in your arms and envisage her toddling around in cutesy pink dresses and floppy hats...

But the name has to last the lifetime and so that's where it loses appeal for me.

I prefer Heidi from the 2 as, IMPO, its a better 'fit' for all age ranges(and personalities).

How about:

Heidi Ruth
Heidi Elizabeth
Heidi Marie
Heidi Jane
Heidi Rose
Heidi Ellen

I'm not keen on Heidi and I'm not sure it goes with your other dd's names.
I like Daisy and although it is popular that is because its a nice name, I would choose a traditional middle name though.
Daisy Elizabeth

MrsTittleMouse · 05/08/2009 09:33

Heidi.

NancysGarden · 05/08/2009 09:31

Heidi. No contest I'm afraid

littleboyblue · 05/08/2009 09:20

Heidi

Schulte · 05/08/2009 09:18

Heidi. Daisy is a cow. Or a duck. Or a character from the Night Garden.

blinder · 04/08/2009 21:38

Definitely Heidi. Makes me think of meadows and pigtails!

pranma · 04/08/2009 21:05

I think Daisy May was a glove puppet or a ventriloquist's dummy!
Daisy Fay has similar sound as has Daisy Kay
I love Heidi though-how about Claire or Johanna to go with it.

MaybeAfterBreakfast · 04/08/2009 16:20

Heidi. Love it.

Daisy very overdone round here

nickelbabe · 04/08/2009 16:14

i love the name daisy: agree to match it with a "grown-up" middle name.

OrmIrian · 04/08/2009 16:13

Neither I'm afraid. Heidi possibly wins by a hair but she'd have to have comedy plaits and clogs. Sorry.

TitsalinaBumsquash · 04/08/2009 16:13

Hiedi

Its very near the top of my Girls list if i ever have a DD!

Hiedi Skye to be precise

GrimmaTheNome · 04/08/2009 16:11

The conjunction of Daisy and Heidi makes me think of livestock on a nice farm and want to suggest Buttercup ... ignore me.

screamingabdab · 04/08/2009 15:59

Heidi

Daisy is too much f a little girls name

What about Trudi, or Astrid , if you like the Germanic-type names

DiamondHead · 04/08/2009 15:32

Daisy but I agree about Mae

MamaLazarou · 04/08/2009 15:18

Heidi, definitely. My little niece is Heidi and she is adorable.

Daisy's a bit too 'skipping through the meadow' for me. Also: cows.

janeite · 01/08/2009 19:36

I agree that a longer second name would be good with Daisy:
Daisy Elizabeth is lovely
Daisy Vivienne
Daisy Marianne
Daisy Beatrice
Daisy Kaitlyn

slowreadingprogress · 01/08/2009 19:35

please don't use May as it seems to be one of the obligatory middle names along with Rose and Grace. Dare to be different

Heidi is a name that I have an irrationally huge amount of hate for.

Daisy is lovely

How about Daisy Louise
Daisy Alice
