Ok, so my daughter is nearly 1 and I have a week to change her registered name. I knew I wanted to call her Rosie and Rachel after my DH mum but it doesn't seem to flow and I want to change it any ideas? Our surname is Kay.

Rosie Rachel Kay
Rosie Alice Rachel Kay
Rosemary Rachel Kay

Rosie Alice Rachel, but all lovely.

I think it's fine - Rosie Rachel - not too much at all.

Lovely that you're giving her your Mum's name!

Rosie Rachel great! Nickname Ra-ra

I prefer Rosie as a nickname, so I'd personally go with Rosemary Rachel, but Rosie Rachel is nice too. I like the alliteration.

Rosie Rachel Kay is lovely!
I like it with Rosemary too. I don't think it needs the Alice.

Rosie Rachel Kay is gorgeous and flows really well.

The Rosemary in our family, choose to be Rosie in reception and 25 years later, with a DS of her own she's still Rosie.

My full name also only appears on bank cards and passports.

I really wouldn't worry.

I like Rosie Rachel Kay too and but Rosie Alice Rachel is also lovely. I think Rosemary is a bit mumsy personally. But I echo Nocomet- I agonised over dd1's middle name and must have used it a max of once or twice since.

I like Rosemary Alice Rachel Kay. Very elegant. But then I am not fond of nns used as the given name. Nice surname! And a single syllable surname makes your options more flexible.

I have a Rosie Rachael! I think it's a great name!!

I think Rosemary Rachel flows better than Rosie Rachel, however Rosie Rachel is also fine! I also like it with the Alice.
