I can't decide on a girls name.

I'm due with dc3 in a few weeks and we don't know the sex. Baby will be called Rory Frank if he is a boy.

If baby is a girl I can't decide between Isabella Joy and Daisy Joy. We already have a Lily so I don't know if two flower names is too "cute". Our eldest is called Adam. I feel like Rory fits well with the other two dcs names but not so sold on the girls. Any preferences/suggestions appreciated.

I would go for Isabella over Daisy, to avoid flower overload, and also it sounds a bit more substantial than Daisy Joy. But there's nothing wrong with Daisy.

Daisy Joy sounds a bit like a perfume or a paint colour.
I do prefer Daisy over Isabella though. It is a bit flowery to have Lily and Daisy, I can't help but think of Hyacinth Bucket!

Like both Isabella and Daisy but don't think either go particularly well with Joy

MummyPig24 · 23/01/2014 13:58

Joy is a family name which is why we chose it. Any ideas what would go well with it?

Isabella Smile

Not sure about Isabella if shortened to Izzy. Lily and izzy are a bit too similar I think. Therefore i would go,with Daisy.

I think Joy is fine.

MummyPig24 · 23/01/2014 18:17

I prefer Izzy to Bella though.

I think 2 flower is to cute yes so I would go with Isabella .. Joy is a lovely mn imo

CarlaVeloso · 25/01/2014 05:56

How about Joy as first name? I don't think Isabella or Daisy are right with Lily and Adam tbh. Is Joy a family name? It would be a fab, unusual choice.

TamerB · 25/01/2014 06:50

I would go for Joy Isabella

BlueStarsAtNight · 26/01/2014 16:10

I prefer Daisy, but agree it's too flowery with Lily. I think Isabella is quite a mouthful compared to other DC's names. If you are looking for other suggestions how about:
Isla Joy
Clara Joy
Sophie/Sophia Joy (v popular but guess you don't mind as Isabella is on your list)
Florence Joy
Helena Joy
