Summer? Skye?

[Seabrookscheeseandonion]

My OH really likes Summer or Skye as a middle name. I'm not sure! We like Iris or Isla as first name. What do you think?

Isla Skye sounds like a "where she was conceived" name. Other combinations would work, though.

I quite like both Summer and Skye as middle names - not sure why, but I think you can be a bit 'edgier' with middle names than first names. Not sure that Isla Skye is such a good combination though. One of my daughters went to nursery with a Summer, a Skye and a Storm ...

I like Skye.

Isla Skye

my ds (13) accidentally confessed that, if he were a girl, he would love to be called Skye

very nice

Neither - they are both horrible.
Defintely not Isla Skye though.

Thanks for your comments, especially 'where she was conceived' we hadn't thought of that. Any ideas on any other combinations with skye or summer as the middle name?

I have a Skye so think it's beautiful! I would only use Summer if it was going to be a summer birth. Our other choice was Iona and that would also work as a first name for Skye, so Iona Skye (although then you have 2 Scottish islands as first and middle name which might sound odd if you have no Scottish connection!).

Prefer Summer I think, and definitely don't like Isla, I'm sorry but I know about 5 little Islas, it's really popular around here at the moment...

I taught a Sommer once (pronounced the same as Summer).

I love both Isla and summer

Iris Skye sounds like "I risk eye". Isla Skye problem mentioned above. Iris Summer is inoffensive. Isla Summer sounds like a holiday brochure. I am not that convinced about a second name starting with S being that great after Isla or Iris though, I think you need a hard consonant to start the second name off distinctively.

Love Iris - Isla a bit meh to me.

Prefer Summer to Skye, but not wild on either.

Sequins, thanks for your comments, have you got any ideas for middle names to go with Iris?

Iris Rose, Iris Lily, Iris Poppy, Iris Violet (but not if your surname starts with F), Iris Primrose, Iris Katherine (not initials IC - "I See"), Iris Jane, Iris Matilda, Iris Grace,v Iris Lucy, Iris Joy - it is a bit tricky though isn't it!

Both Neighbour's names - think I would seer clear - these sound like the 21st century Kylie. Might live to regret them later....

Not keen, think they they both sound a bit chavvy somehow, maybe it's the neighbours connectiong like amothersplaceisinthewrong says

:( I'm not chavvy!
