I really like the name Esme Florence what do you think?

We also have a 2 year old boy called Henry

If you like it use it. Why do you need approval?

I think it's lovely :) Esme goes really well with Henry.

It's great, what a lovely choice.

scummymummy · 11/07/2012 12:06

Sounds like a nice name to me.

AdventuresWithVoles · 11/07/2012 12:13

Sounds like the ultimate MNer choice of name. (Which is fine)

Florence is lovely, not keen on Esme I'm afraid.

SoozyWoozy · 11/07/2012 13:04

Lovely, both names. And sits nicely with Henry too :)

DottieRose · 11/07/2012 13:19

Beautiful name!! Go for it!

NervousAt20 · 11/07/2012 13:21

I love the name Esme Smile

squoosh · 11/07/2012 13:25

I agree with AdventuresWithVoles, that was my immediate thought too.

MammaTonic · 11/07/2012 14:51

Like what was said upthread, if you like the names, OP, then go for it.

However, my personal taste would be to not combine these names. Individually, they're fine - I have a friend with a 6mo Esme and a friend with a 16mo Florence (Flo) and I like saying/hearing their names. But I wouldn't combine the names because to me, it's 'old lady' name overload IYSWIM.

That said, names I like get some stick from MN. Everyone's different.

Thank the good Lord!

I love Esme & am totally biased on Florence Grin

Would you say Es-may or Es-me though? Just out of interest really!

Ham69 · 12/07/2012 21:30

That's my daughter's name (first and middle) so obviously I think they sound great together! Still love the name, just wish damn twilight hadn't made Esme so popular. You have good taste!
