What names 'go' with these?

What names 'fit' with:

Megan, Ella, Emily and Charlie?

Would something like 'Petal' or 'Daisy' be a bit odd as an addition?

What girl's name would you pick?

Top fave is 'Matilda'!

For Megan, Ella, Emily and Charlie, I'd go for:

Lola, Charlotte, Olivia, Mia, Isla, Darcey, Millie.

Petal doesn't go; Daisy does. Matilda could go, but isn't an entirely comfortable fit, IYSWIM.

If Matilda was shortened to 'Tilly' or 'Maddie' that night help! :)

Yes - your suggested NNs fit, but Matilda as a full name only really goes with Ella and Emily (similar vintage sound, whereas Megan and Charlie are more modern). Maddie/Tilly bridges the gap very well, I think :)

Not that it's a massive gap, to be fair.

Megan, Ella, Emily, Charlie and....

Hannah
Lily
Faye
Anna
Mabel

I think Daisy or Lily would go, but Petal would be a worse fit.

Does it matter to you if it doesn't "go"? It matters to me, but not to everyone.

Molly?
Millie?
Katy?

Alexandra, Matilda

Hannah,

sw11mumofone · 03/03/2013 18:39

I wouldnt put Charlotte with Charlie....

MolotovCocktail · 03/03/2013 18:53

After thinking about it, neither would I. It was just a well-meaning suggestion.

MolotovCocktail · 03/03/2013 18:54

sw11, what would your suggestions actually be, as opposed to critiquing other's suggestions?

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 04/03/2013 09:11

Lizbeth (Lizzy, Beth, Betsy)
Phoebe
Florence

I think Daisy would fit okay, sorry can't take Petal seriously, just my own view.

Tilly is quite a popular abbreviation of Matilda I thought?

MortifiedAdams · 04/03/2013 09:16

Petal really isnt a name though, is it.

Like Lily and Daisy but prefer Poppy, if its a flower name you are looking for.

I like Matilda but think it clashes with Megan.

To add..... Alice, Robyn, Darcie, Pippa.

Thanks for all the suggestions...

Hadn't considered Phoebe and I like love it Grin
