Camilla or Francesca. Don't like Rose though.

ZingWantsCake · 16/09/2013 11:55

cru Grin Grin

ZingWantsCake · 16/09/2013 11:56

or Rosamund

ZingWantsCake · 16/09/2013 11:57

I meant Rosamund Grace

Stat · 16/09/2013 12:08

Francesca Rose

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 16/09/2013 12:27

I like Vivienne Rose and Francesca Rose, in that order, although I'm not crazy about Rose tbh.

I agree Rosamund is lovely as a first name, and Grace.

sherbetpips · 16/09/2013 12:29

Viv for me!

HavantGuard · 16/09/2013 12:30

To me Francesca and Olive don't really fit with the others. Olive is a different style of name and Francesca isn't a name I'd choose anymore, nice though it is, as it's become rather over used. The others are all really
lovely.

alli1968 · 16/09/2013 12:31

francesca or vivien or maybe catherine

not penelope or genevive - cant say why - just not right

ksrwr · 16/09/2013 12:35

one of those is my name, just missing my second middle name.
so obviously i like that
however, i think rose is SO over used
however, no one ever mentions middle names, so its kind of irrelevant
so i'll focus on the first name
i prefer Catherine and Elizabeth

elcranko · 16/09/2013 16:42

Love Penelope and Olivia.

MrsJohnDeere · 16/09/2013 16:49

Elizabeth or Genevieve

what about Rosalind as a first name? I like Catherine best from your original list.

Clargo55 · 16/09/2013 22:49

Love Genevieve. Lots of lovely choices for nicknames, Eve, Evie, Genna, Vivi.

ZingWantsCake · 17/09/2013 00:00

Rosemary Alice is nice too

LillyNotOfTheValley · 17/09/2013 00:15

I am not keen on Rose (or Jane) so I will not take mn in consideration. In order of preference:
Elizabeth
Francesca
Vivienne
Penelope

Elizabeth Claire is lovely!

(and I have a very soft spot for Francesca Louise)

SelectAUserName · 17/09/2013 04:16

Francesca and Genevieve are my favourites from your list.

Love the names Rosalind and Rosamund too, as suggested above.

Wingebag · 17/09/2013 04:26

Not keen on Rose as a middle name. I like Olivia, but it does seem quite common now.

None of the others. Sorry Hmm

rundontwalk · 17/09/2013 05:55

Elizabeth for me,although not sure it 'flows' with rose. Or Rose as a first name! Or how about Amelie, Sophia or Emily?

SubliminalMassaging · 17/09/2013 06:28

I love them all. You have excellent taste. Grin

Not very helpful really am I?!

PassTheTwiglets · 17/09/2013 06:36

Just to point out that Francesca only has one S, so unless you're deliberately going for an unusual spelling then DD would be subjected to a lifetimes of saying "no, it's two s's" :)

InfiniteJest · 17/09/2013 06:45

I vote for Vivienne or Genevieve. They're both elegant with cute nicknames. Good luck with your decision!

mummybare · 17/09/2013 06:54

I love Elizabeth, Penelope and Genevieve. Vivienne us my mum's name which would put me off, although I don't see why it should stop you Grin

Olivia is nice too.
