Iris?

Possible middle names are Constance, and then don't know!

Surname is one syllable starting B

Thanks mumsnet!

I rather like it! Much stronger than the currently popular 'cutesy' botanical names, while still being softly feminine.

Two enthusiastic thumbs up from team pelvic.

StickPin · 12/06/2013 22:18

Love it

samuelwhiskers · 12/06/2013 22:21

like it but don't love it, but really love Constance!

Vijac · 12/06/2013 22:22

Lovely

Vijac · 12/06/2013 22:23

Not so sure about Constance but ok as it's a middle name (and doesn't really matter!)

squalorvictoria · 12/06/2013 22:24

One of my favourite girl's names. Love it.

ChippingInWiredOnCoffee · 12/06/2013 22:24

I don't like either - but it's not my baby!

Noggie · 12/06/2013 22:27

I really like it- suits a little one and and a grown up young lady. Think some 'cute' names might come to be less helpful with age?

EuphemiaLennox · 12/06/2013 22:32

I love it because I love tge scent of Iris so it has such strong positive associations for me.

ImaginaryHat · 12/06/2013 22:47

Love it

Rtfairy · 12/06/2013 23:05

I like it

CheerfulYank · 12/06/2013 23:08

Love Iris and Constance but not together.

I have a one syllable B surname too...it makes naming hard! :)

BlueStarsAtNight · 12/06/2013 23:10

I like it, as long as your surname doesn't end with an 's' or 'ce' sound; if it does then I think it would be too much to have all 3 names end that way!

waltergal1 · 13/06/2013 02:28

Love it! Beautiful :)

lottiegarbanzo · 13/06/2013 02:39

Yes, like it.

Connie is really nice too, or Con, though to me Constance is very 'proper' in a stern great aunt way. You can do that with a middle name though.

Same as angus love it. Dh is a bugger. Sad

DonDrapersAltrEgoBigglesDraper · 13/06/2013 09:24

I don't love either, though that's neither here nor there. But I don't think they run together all that well.

ItsallFeegle · 13/06/2013 09:27

I think it's beautiful. Grin

Exhaustipated · 13/06/2013 09:30

Lovely but pretty popular and on the rise, if that bothers you. I know 4 little ones.

GW297 · 13/06/2013 15:35

Like it!

AmandaPandtheTantrumofDoom · 13/06/2013 16:10

Lovely - both names.

AmandaPandtheTantrumofDoom · 13/06/2013 16:10

Constance would definitely be on a list for hypothetical DD3!

GeeandTea · 13/06/2013 16:56

Love it

TeamJavert · 13/06/2013 18:06

Hate it.
