Marianne Elodie or Beatrice Catherine?

[CSLewis]

...or Marianne Amelie?

We have a family French Connection, so want a name that sounds good in both languages. Surname begins with L, two syllables. Think this is now the (final) final short list, so which do you prefer?

i like Beatrice Elodie!

They're all lovely options! I think Beatrice Catherine just pips it for me.

Oooh, all really lovely names. I think Marianne Elodie.

I like Marianne Elodie.

Beatrice Catherine. Or Beatrice Marianne.

Or Marianne Beatrice?

Oh dear! I don't really want to use Beatrice and Marianne together, as I really like both of them, so want to save one for other future possible daughters... My DH prefers Marianne, but was really opposed to Beatrice for ages, long enough to almost put me off it!

I think my favourite combination is Beatrice Catherine. I think..!

Beatrice Elodie for me.....beautiful!

Beatrice Catherine. It's beautiful. Plus get it in now that your DH has come round to it, then if you have a DD2 you can graciously let him have 'his' choice of name

Mellow, I'm liking your style...

Marianne Elodie

Beatrice Catherine, but all four names are lovely.

Beatrice Catherine is lovely. I'm really not keen on Elodie, it's so soppy.

Marianne Catherine! The trouble with Beatrice is it sounds lovely in French, not so good in English (Beer-triss)

Elodie Beatrice.

Beatrice Catherine

but prefer Elodie beatrice

I love both but think prefer Beatrice slightly.

Oooh both nice. I have a Beatrice known mostly as Bea. V cool name.

Marianne Catherine too.

Marianne Elodie will kind of be M.Elodie. Nice!

do like Beatrix too. and Eloise...

Beatrice Catherine is lovely.

Both Marianne and Elodie are quite dated now in France - most are in their twenties or older and I know of none younger than that.

Marianne Elodie

Beatrice Elodie!
