Is this TOO weird/out there?

[RunRabbit]

Temperance Grace.

Yay or nay?

[poorincashrichinlove]

Its out there, but in a good way I think. Temper for short though?

[poorincashrichinlove]

Trinity? Out there but nice with Grace.

Temperance sounds like an African American middle-aged woman from the deep South in the US, who spends most of her time in a Baptist Church singing in the choir.

Why would that be a bad thing to be?

[PoppyAmex]

"Why would that be a bad thing to be?"

Erm...

I didn't say it was a bad thing, I said it was the image it evoked for me.

I'm Latino and get why people say that Carmen sounds like a Spanish/South American person. Or that Lola is naff unless you're of Latin descent.

[NewBlueShoesToo]

Tiny Temper hmmmm?

[sarahquilt]

Calling her temperance might be tempting fate. She might rebel and become a raging alco.

[Shallishanti]

Prudence Grace

[LifeIsBetterInFlipFlops]

Poor child - honestly it would be dreadful.

[littlecloud]

I don't like virtue names. So it's a nay from me sorry

[Bakingtins]

Nope.

Grace is fine.

Constance, Faith, Hope, Verity, Felicity? All ok but not two virtue names together, definite overkill.

[StrictlySazz]

Taryn, Natasha, Talia?

[starrystarryknut]

ah curlew, a like mind I have a whole dialogue running in my head with this:
"Cadence! Your behaviour has been very ii-V this morning, I don't like it when you V-vi me. I expect you to be V-I, with a feminine ending. And your grandma says IV-I to that."
Sorry to any non-musicians, but seriously... Cadence?? Just LOL.

[wetaugust]

Nooooo and those who say they like it are just sadists

[JazzAnnNonMouse]

I really like it

[emblosion]

Like Grace a lot.

Not Temperance though - it just sounds a bit clunky and sort of no-fun, religious vibe.

[saladcreamwitheverything]

Nay. But I have a James which is common as muck so what do I know

[saladcreamwitheverything]

[louiseanna12]

Tamara Grace?
I find everyone I know with a double names doesn't like it though, come up with something more different you might fight it suits.. Like Lola or something

[BloodiedGhouloshes]

Love! Love!.

I was putting forward Temperance for one of our Dcs, but DH pointed out quite rightly that given our predilections, people would PThemselvesL

[BloodiedGhouloshes]

I also read a great book while pg with DC 1 where the main character was called Deliverance Dane.

Loved that too.

All my Dcs are called pretty dull names, it has to be said.

[IHaveA]

Temperance is a pretty name. I agree that it sounds very 'Deep South' African-American. I used to live in the USA and knew some lovely ladies with amazing names including a Hycinth Bonaprte
I put the *'s in to make it ungoogle'able
Tem would be ok as a nickname.
If I were to choose Temperance I would steer clear of Grace as a middle name as it sounds a bit too religious and pretentious in combination with Temperance. Something short and plain would be nice. Something like Temperance Anne

I definitely like Temperance though

[IHaveA]

What is your surname like?

[JoinYourPlayfellows]

nn Temper?

[JoinYourPlayfellows]

Or Temp?

[lljkk]

Tempe is the nn, it's not so uncommon state-side. Alright to my ears.

But implies OP has an agenda about temperance, iyswim, alcohol to be specific.
