Emilie-XXX ???

[ScouseBird8364]

I will be having our baby girl in 5 weeks and we'd decided on her name, Emilie-Rose

However... I personally like Emilie-Paige better, but can't seem to win hubby round on that one

So, I need ideas as to what would go with Emilie as a hyphenated name...?

I do like Emilie-Fae, Emilie-Rae and Emilie-Skye...

Sorry, can't recall the name of the poster who asked if I use the double barrel names - Yes, I do! I gave them their names for a reason, and their teachers also use them too; I'd expect nothing less

Love Rose with Emilie.

How about Emilie-Jo?

Rose. I don't think Emilie, whether in its French or English form, goes at all well with Paige.

There is an actress called Emily Rose, so that works in my head. Paige seems to jar a bit.

If someone introduced themselves to me as Emilie-Paige I'd assume their surname was Page.

I don't understand the widespread hatred of hyphenated names.

I think hyphens are best when used with more "classic", single syllable names after the hyphen - Anne, Jane, Rose, Grace. Marie and Maria also look nice as part of a hyphenated name imo.

So I would say Emilie-Rose is much nicer and more classic sounding (and therefore less likely to sound naff or dated in the future) then Emilie-Paige.

Thanks girlies

Think Emilie-Rose is going to stick

No particular reason for the alternative spelling, just that I like to be different

Can't you go for Emily Jane? Beautiful and classic.

scouse look on the ons lists. There are lots of parents trying to be different and hundreds of girls with -rose. Emilie also sounds like emily, amelie, Amelia, Emilia, all top 100, if not top 10 names.

Nothing wrong with that. Dd2 has a name that is in a popular sound category but it may not be what you're after if its different that you want go for a consonant name as the vowel E is very popular at no, that way she ius like to be only one in class. Remember teacher might get tongue twisted over Emma, Emilia, Amelia, Willow-Rose, Mia-Rose, Evie-Rose, Emilie-Rose...ad nauseum.

There are beautul names like Bianca, Meredith, Georgina...

If you want hippy different Juniper, Wisteria, Amaryllis

Or if you like Rose how about Rosamund. At first the mund is rathger heavy but it grows on you and seems to have gravitas. I also think Rosamund Pike. Or Rosalina?

If you like Emilie how about Emiliana (Italian)?

Well I like hyphenated names and think Emilie-Rose is lovely. I prefer Paige to Rose as a stand alone name but don't think it hyphenates well with Emilie. I think Emilie-Rae is cool and might be my favourite!
