Hi guys what do you think of the name Isabella-Moonflower?

Is that you gwynnie?

It sounds ever so romantic and beautiful but I'm not sure if it works off the pages of a novel. If you're brave enough go for it. I presume she'll only really be known as Isabella anyway?

If you leave out the -Moonflower bit then I like it Grin

Onesleeptillwembley · 30/06/2014 17:12

Moonflower pebbles is the way to go.

fourforksache · 30/06/2014 17:13

moonflower mooncup.

Well, unless you're David Bowie, or Bob Geldof, Jamie Oliver or one of River Phoenix's siblings then it's just plain silly. It's a bit silly anyway, but certain people can carry these names off. The average Joe Bloggs would struggle, I think.

Ha ha moonflower pebbles yes I love it

Without the hyphen it's much better. I like unusual middle names.

VivaLeBeaver · 30/06/2014 18:11

I met someone called Tallulah Moonlight once.

I like Tallulah more.

There seem to be loads of Isabels and Isabellas round here at the moment. Obviously far fewer moonflowers.

The Scottish schools are out for the summer.

Board chaos for the next 2 months!

Banana-hammock is the best name obv but the OP is probably too young to remember the episode.

Primadonnagirl · 30/06/2014 21:11

What about Isabella Noying?

SirChenjin · 30/06/2014 21:17

Or Isabella Ringing Loudly Or Do I Have Tinnitus?

Primadonnagirl · 30/06/2014 21:19

Isabella Necessity On A Bike?

Stopmithering · 30/06/2014 21:20

Or Isabel necessaryonabike?

Alita7 · 30/06/2014 21:23

I wouldn't personally. But then my friends middle name is tinkabel
I guess middle names can be fun..

what about Isabella Fleur or Isabella luna fleur?

BomberManIsAGirl · 30/06/2014 21:25

Hmm. It's ok if you are really, really famous and rich.

Otherwise, I would leave out the hyphen. Moonflower as a middle name is a bit wacky but why not choose it if you like it Smile

Alisvolatpropiis · 30/06/2014 21:29

Moonflower strikes me as a bit...menstrual.

Are there any other names you like to go with Isabella?

SirChenjin · 30/06/2014 21:32

Menstrual??!! In what way?! Grin

iklboo · 30/06/2014 21:33

I like Raine Inspain. But it's a bit plain.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 30/06/2014 21:34

Isabella - yes
Moonflower - do you really want opinions? It sounds like the name of somebody who writes M&B books and wants to sound exotic. It is very silly indeed imvho.

miffybun73 · 30/06/2014 21:35

Ridiculous.
