Please give me your thoughts on the following names:

Felicity Grace
Felicity Rose

Alice Matilda
Alice Lily
Alice Frances
Alice Felicity

Elodie Frances
Elodie Rose
Elodie Matilda

also, does anyone have any nice shortenings for Felicity? i love the whole name but i think it would often be shorted.

thanks very much!

Like them all but think favourites are:

1 Alice (not sure second name)
2 Elodie Grace (so pretty)
3 Felicity (flick?)

Having said that never heard of an Elodie so that might be appealing and might shift it into number one!

I love the name Alice but I think Elodie is my favourite of your list, it's beautiful.... especially Elodie Frances or Elodie Grace. Elodie Frances is more unusual if that's important to you. Frances is lovely, why not use that as a first name?

Oops i forgot to add Elodie Rose to my list...

I like Alice Matilda or Elodie Grace.

BelligerentGhoul · 13/09/2010 19:38

Alice Frances is my favourite from those.

lamplighter · 13/09/2010 19:50

Felicity Rose

Fee for a nickname

Lonnie · 13/09/2010 19:55

Elodie Rose by far from that list

WinkyWinkola · 13/09/2010 19:58

Felicity Rose. It's lovely.

muminthemiddle · 13/09/2010 20:16

Elodie Frances gets my vote.

Prinpo · 13/09/2010 20:27

My niece is an Elodie Grace! I'll tell her mum that lots of people like it Smile.

I love Felicity Rose. I'd use Fliss as an abbreviation.

I love Alice Frances. It's the only name that really struck me.

short forms of Felicity

Most common one is Fliss also called Flissy by close friends and Dads when mopping up tears

Sometimes known as Flick though not altogether keen on that one

Lissy by those relatives who have small children who can't get their tongues around the full name

Lastly Fil seems to be used particularly by Grandfathers or Filly when giving their grandaughters a goodnight kiss.

My brothers always got annoyed at anyone who tried to use a shortened version. Have to say I tended to agree with them and only the very privileged few who have known me since childhood get to shorten it at all. Only met dh when I was a grown up so he has to go with the whole thing.

I'd go for grace or rose as a second name.

Oh yes there is one girl who calls me Fee too
