Love them all except not keen on genevive or Penelope.
If I had to just pick one? Vivienne Rose stands out the most I think I'd go with that

mrsmindcontrol · 15/09/2013 21:21

Oh, was just about to say the only one I liked was Olive, and see you changed that to Olivia.
So, sorry, I really don't like any of them. All way too flowery & wishy washy for me.

MrsBungle · 15/09/2013 21:21

Vivienne for sure.

magicstars · 15/09/2013 21:22

I was gonna vote Olive! Camilla 2nd fav.

Cohenite · 15/09/2013 21:24

Catherine Rose :)

jkklpu · 15/09/2013 21:25

Vivienne, but I'm afraid I don't like Rose, which it seems almost everyone wants as a middle name

Penelope, Catherine or Elizabeth.

The other middle name we have is Jane but it doesn't go with all the names so we just put rose, we think of a middle name as more of a 'bridge' into the last name

I think it's spelled Genevieve - you're missing an e there.

They're all really pretty names, with the possible exception of Olive (I'm old, and I associate it with Popeye). Would struggle to say a favourite - maybe Francesca?

Hassled · 15/09/2013 21:28

Sorry - I see it's Olivia. Another nice name. You have good taste.

Tweediewalker · 15/09/2013 21:31

That's interesting, there are quite a few Vivienne's, I thought I would be alone on that one :-)

I love Camilla, Rose or Jane work though I think Jane slightly more so.
All nice though grin

AlwaysWashing · 15/09/2013 21:33

Does anyone else find that nicknames put them off a beautiful name? How do you deal with it? Hubby and I are so confused! Lol

OP posts:
RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 15/09/2013 21:36

Catherine, Elizabeth or Vivienne - all gorgeous. Prefer Jane to Rose. Claire would work as a 'bridge' too, but not with Catherine.

peppapigmustdie · 15/09/2013 21:37

In order, Vivienne, Elizabeth then Catherine.
Would you be willing to swap them around at all?

Tweediewalker · 15/09/2013 21:38

Thanks, I like Claire, I will put it to DH :-)

I like Francesca, the others aren't really my cup of tea.

ZingWantsCake · 15/09/2013 21:56
