Suggestions for a middle name for Emma please?
I feel like it needs to either be one syllable or 3/4, in order to "flow"! Happy to be corrected though!
Just finding it a difficult name to match middle names with....

I do love the name Rose, but so many people seem to use it as a middle name at the moment which has perhaps put me off slightly? Emma Rose is very pretty though.

Tiredemma I also love the name Esme. A good friend has a daughter by this name, otherwise I think it would definitely be on my short list. Emma is just so classic and beautiful and elegantly simple!

For my generation, Emma Louise does seem a very popular combination! It flows brilliantly though, so I can see why it is popular. All the Emmas I know seem to be Emma Jane or Emma Louise.

Another Emma Louise here. Or Emma Lou as I was called growing up.

The other Emmas I know are all Jane/jayne.

I would go for something a bit more unsual.

How about Beth? I see your point about the proliferation of Roses Smile

My niece is Emma Frances which I think is pretty

What about Emma Florence? I love both names and Florence has family significance. My only issue is it would make initials EFC as in Everton Football Club, which would be a big no-no in our house! Grin

Thanks for the continuing suggestions and comments!

Emma Florence is probably my fave so far!

Emma Florence is lovely, and if you really can't have references to Everton in your family maybe you could slip in another name..

I'm another Emma Louise (I was nearly Emma Jane.) I reckon about half the girls in my year at school had Louise as a middle name, and I suspect the other Emma Louises in this thread may be of a similar vintage to me.
