[TWinklyLittleStar]

I've known two Susannahs, both went by their full name, both were friendly, intelligent and charming people - one an adult, one a teenager when I knew her, so I love the name.

I like Miles too, though it reminds me of a Star Trek Deep Space Nine character...

[ZolaBuddleia]

I like Casper (also Caspar) but the others are all a bit meh for me. I'm not generally into 'classic' names, they feel quite dull IMO.

Elodie is beautiful, and would go with Casper.

[Rhubarbgarden]

Casper and Susannah. I don't like the others.

[lovethesun1]

Jemima Elizabeth is beautiful. Not keen on the others tbh, Casper reminds me of the friendly ghost & Susannah is a bit nothingy & likely to get shortened for me. But its all personal taste,go with what you love :)

[squoosh]

Miles and Susannah. Definitely. They sound more classic.

Casper and Jemima seem too current.

[WormCanner]

Miles Henry is an excellent name.

Susannah is lovely and surprisingly underused, but I think Elizabeth is a bit of a mouthful with it. Doesn't really matter much.

Susannah will only get shortened if she wants it to be. I've known lots of people with longer names who were never known by short forms. Several Elizabeths, for a start. Amandas, Margarets, Katherines. It's not inevitable.

[suspiria]

Casper Henry and Jemima Elizabeth are my favourites

[brambleking]

Jemima is beautiful and I love the nns 'Mima' and 'Mimi'!

I have a gorgeous nephew called Miles and I adore it. It means solider - a real strong man's name!

To me, Susannah and Elizabeth are quite dated - It was a popular combo for people who are how in their 40s. Classic but a bit 'vanilla' if you know what I mean? And personally I don't think Elodie and Susannah 'go'...

Henry is great too.

[EssieW]

Love the girls names! Jemima Elizabeth would be top.

Not keen on the boys name although miles is ok. They seem quite different to the girls names

[Bowlersarm]

Love every one but Caspar

[Leafmould]

Like susannah.


Not keen on the others though

[FriggFRIGGisPoorlySick]

Casper Henry and Jemima Elizabeth are lovely

[williaminajetfighter]

Jemima lovely. Ditto Casper. Susannah will get shortened and some quite dull options.

[OkayHazel]

Hate Susannah. You've got all these elegant, quirky names picked out, and Sue tagged on the end.

She will be just called Sue. Plain, dated Sue.

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

Susannah Elizabeth is gorgeous.
Don't like the boys' names or Jemima, sorry.

[Startail]

Miles/Myles (I've know both) and susannah
Jemima is a duck or a rag doll.

[lilibet]

Miles and Susannah

Jemima is my beautiful old cat!

[Zaphiro]

Miles & Jemima

[tilder]

I completely understand. Baby names are very personal though and I its tricky being honest without causing offense sometimes. For me anyway.

I did the same thing when choosing names for dc3 and really good advice.

[jollygoose]

love susannah also Jemima, suzy for short sounds so cute

[FelicityWasCold]

Like them all. Especially the girls names.

Casper- does scream friendly ghost at me though, I like it, but I can't get past it. Sorry.

[AndFanjoWasHisNameO]

Tilder thanks for explaining. Fully appreciate that we are t'interweb randomers but it's great to hear some impartial opinions iyswim?
I love Elizabeth but already have an Elodie so I think they'd be too similar together.
Thanks to everyone for your comments.

[morethanyoubargainfor]

I am similar to tidler, just say the ones I love and the ones I don't so not to offend, the others on your list are ok but not for me.

If you love them what does it really matter what I think really, as tidler says I am just a random person on the Internet!

[tilder]

Tbo its probably a reflection of my taste in names. I tend not to say why i don't like a name as I just offend people. However what I like about the middle names is that they aren't faddy, they don't lend themselves to odd nicknames, they aren't of a particular era. Strong, classic beautiful names with lots of potential for nicknames. They also work well on babies, children and adults.

Does that help or make sense? FWIW my preferred first name is Susannah but it wouldn't be my first choice.

But I'm a random stranger on the internet so what do I know!

[YummyMummyFeelingFunny]

Caspar and Jemima without a doubt!
