Daisy Alice - do your worst!

15 weeks pregnant with DC2 - yay Grin

For a girl, we are beginning to settle on Daisy Alice as a possible name.

For a boy, we're dithering between Arthur Clive and Alfred (Fred) Clive (Clive non-negotiable: important family connection).

Surname begins with B. Opinions? (All welcome - want to hear good and bad!)

Lovely. I have both within my dds' name combinations!

GW297 · 01/03/2013 01:05

I like Daisy Alice.

I quite like the name Daisy and Alice is fine too. But not sure they are good together. But maybe that's just me. Not so keen on Alfred. Prefer Arthur.

I would say Alice Elizabeth or Arthur James.

But I'm really cool.

I like Arthur James and it would work well as my dad's middle name is James. But Clive is the only certainty, and it's for an important family-connection-type reason.

Alice Elizabeth is cool :)

workingtoohard, Lily Grace is lovely and it's so nice when your DD's name makes you smile :) It doesn't matter about popularity if it does that - my DD's first name is quite popular, though her middle name isn't, and I love it so much that I don't care how many people have that name.

I love Arthur- and Art is a very cool nickname

WorkingtoohardMama · 01/03/2013 09:56

siluria exactly!

Both girls names are lovely but I think Alice has the edge as it ages well. Daisy sounds like just a girls name rather than one that can be used for an adult later on.

I also like Alicia which is quite classy & grown up.

I know this is a super old thread but OP what did you go for? I stumbled across your thread researching opinions on the name Daisy!We have a little Arthur and are expecting a girl. We have either Daisy Ella or Ella Daisy - a bit like your alice/daisy conundrum. interested on what you went for x

Chilldonaldchill · 07/02/2021 14:16

Daisy Alice is lovely.
I prefer Arthur to Alfred, mainly because I know loads of Alfies.

Chilldonaldchill · 07/02/2021 14:17

ftmum94 · 07/02/2021 14:24

Lovely! We are considering Daisy Amelie at the moment for our first if it’s a girl!

buntingandstarcharts · 07/02/2021 14:30

@ftmum94 lovely! we are thinking either Daisy Ella or Ella Daisy?

partyatthepalace · 07/02/2021 19:38

Love Arthur and Alfred

Find Daisy very drippy, it’s such an insignificant little flower. Like Alice though.

Few other thoughts - Flora, Iris, Jasmine, Honor, Felicity, Amelia, Clara, Phoebe, Emma, Edith
