This is my "short" list of names for DD4. Full name would be a combination of 2/3 of these with a W surname. I have already noted that initials GF and FGM would be best avoided! Is OW a pitfall or am I being too picky?

Genevieve
Emmeline
Orla
Elinor
Flora
Miriam

Like Genevieve. Classy and elegant but sweet for a little girl
Emmaline is horrible, sorry. Harsh sounding and if it makes sense unfriendly and unapproachable
sounding
Love Elinor. Very pretty
Oral no opinion really
Miriam. Beautiful. Suits you right through life.

Genevieve - like, good nickname potential
Emmeline - love, unusual but completely 'normal' iyswim
Orla - ok
Elinor - love but prefer Eleanor spelling
Flora - ok, prefer Florence
Miriam - love, good as it is or could be Miri, Mim, Mimi...

I have an Orla so I'm bias there, emmeline is lovely.

I'd never ever have associated those initials with either example you gave!

Bowlersarm · 27/02/2015 22:05

Flora, best girls name IMO

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 27/02/2015 22:06

Love Elinor. Like Emmeline. Flora okay. Don't like Orla or Miriam.

Emmeline and Orla are my favourites.

I don't think initials matter at all :)
