Hi
I posted a few wks ago about my friend who is preg with her first and she likes the name Mia, but couldnt decide whether Mia or Maya......
Anyway, she now likes Esme (said as Ezmee, if nobody knows, no offence if u do) I also love the name...would be an option if i have a DD (if she didnt choose of course)

Opinions please?

Mia or Esme?

Middle name Louise

I like Lois and Dulcie too. They sound like Esme's friends (in the nursing home, if not in the creche)

Esme, pronounced Ezmee.

Mia is ... there's not enough of it...

don't like Mia much. it's quite a nice name but over-used.

I have got an Esme Bluebell.

Mia = meh

Mia, definitely. Not keen on Esme.

Love Esme, on my shortlist too

'For Esme in Love and Squalor' Is your friend a big fan of JD Salinger?

Anyway it's a nice name.

But Mia Louise is a bit too rhymey. I like Esme Louise better. And I really like the names.

hatwoman · 29/04/2010 08:50

love Esme. not sure about Esme Louise - too many's s's perhaps?

Esme is my favourite. It's fine to pronounce it Es-mee if you're spelling it without the accent.
