i like the name but would make the initails FEM. in was thinking of going the oposite way around but it just doesnt seem right.
her name would be Florence eleanor...i have liked it since i was having Ds and he also has a traditional boys name. i know people are going to say im naming her after an old lady but i dont care...its just the initials.

I know a girl who's called Femi and everyone calls her Fem, She's not had any problems so I doubt having FEM as initials will be a problem.

You have choosen a beautiful name.

Sounds fine to me - lovely names, and they go really well together that way round, too. I say go for it.

The initials are fine!

If this baby is a girl, her initials will be HMC, which isn't ideal, but there you go!

As long as it doesn't spell out DIK or FUK or some such silliness, it's fine.

Beautiful! I'd choose Florence if I had a DD! Regardless of the initials.

Florence is a beautiful name and one of my favourites.

I don't like FEM are bad initials are they?
