PS Isadora Duncan was just wonderful! A very Romantic life and death, if you're into Romance with a capital R. :)

Of the first list I like Georgiana best. Not madly keen on any on the second list.

WhoKnowsWhereTheMistletoes · 22/12/2014 18:46

Matilda Blythe would be my choice (only considering first names from your shortened list).

Joan would be an absolute no, I don't like old lady names.

The only one I like on the trimmed list is Penelope, on the Middle names (which my phone insists on capitalising) I like Willow and Blythe though not sure my choices go together. With Felicity I would choose Blythe as a first name, I like it.

CrispyFern · 22/12/2014 20:24

Favourites from the trimmed list are Penelope and Tabitha.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 22/12/2014 20:28

Don't like any of the middle names but Willow is the best of the bunch.

First name...

Georgiana - love
Matilda -ok
Seraphina - hate
Hermione - love
Tabitha - hate
Margot - hate
Penelope ok
Jemima -ok
Florence - love
Beatrice - love
Isadora - love

I don't like Seraphina at all, sorry. Just really pretentious and try hard imho.

I love Claudia, but see you cut it. shame.

Penelope and Tabitha I like best. Tamsin?

SnoringNorma · 22/12/2014 23:43

Isadora is adorable (sorry)
Also love Matilda and Beatrice. Fern any good as a middle name?

Twittwooo · 23/12/2014 00:04

Margot is great. It's our top choice if baby is a girl. And the Leadbetter / 70s association makes it all the more appealing to me ?? I think it's a beautiful name (but I see it's off your list).

Yorkshirelassreturns · 23/12/2014 02:15

Beatrice by a country mile. Beatrice Willow from your middle names but I would actually go Beatrice Florence if it were my choice

Noodle1234 · 23/12/2014 20:35

Thank you for the responses. I'm leaning towards Isadora and my husband likes Penelope. What do you think of just these two?

If you like those two names I would have:

Isadora Nellie Surname
