My final two girls names

[Lucaslovesfelicity]

On here again.... I know . We really do have our final two now. DH still being quite lovely about it all and just telling me to choose. I thought me having the final decision would make it easy but no. So I really would value your opinions again please.

Rosalie Iris Mary
Grace Phyllis Rose

Thanks again

I'd like Grace Iris Mary or Grace Mary Iris

Rosalie Iris Mary is beautiful.

Rosalie is my preference over Grace, although Roseanne is much nicer. There are far far too many IE ending names of both genders out there are the moment, and it makes it sound like an abbreviation.

Grace for me too

Love Rosalie . Not keen on Grace really

Rosalie is lovely, and works better than Grace with a short surname, but I'm not keen on the two flower names used together.
Rosalie Mary Grace perhaps?

Not keen on Phyllis.

Rosalie Iris and Mary are the best three names. I might switch the last two to avoid RIM, but Mary Iris runs on in an awkward way.

Rosalie Mary Grace if you like it enough to have considered it for a first name?

Rosalie is very nice for a first name, unusual but not out there. I don't see it being shortened to 'Ros' more likely 'Rose' as that is how it is pronounced, right?

Grace Phyllis Rose reads like a second choice ifyswim.

Ha - great minds allalonenow, didn't see your suggestion when I posted

I wouldn't switch Iris and Mary as it sounds like you've done something "unique" with Rosemary

Actually the RIM thing doesn't matter if you've a surname after it as well, so stick with Rosalie Iris Mary, soupdragon is right about. Rosalie and Mary not sitting right.

As you were

Rosalie is lovely. I love Grace too but Rosalie is uncommon and unusual without being dated/twee or downright weird.

She might use her second name occasionally but no-one ever gives out all three names so RIM Jones is far more likely to be R.I Jones if it ever came up.

Unless your surname is Smith. RIM Smith would be a little unfortunate

What's "unfortunate" about RIM Smith?

Thanks everyone. DH has decided to finally make a contribution and says he thinks he prefers Rosalie Iris Mary SURNAME, so think we have finally come to some sort of a decision. Obviously will wait until we meet her but thanks again everyone for all your help

Sorry, just curious....

How come you have two completely different names? Usually people have a definite first or middle name, just wondered what the back story is? I'm nosey!

Allthatnonsense

Phyllis Mary was my grandmothers name, so definitely wanted to use one of those as a middle name. My DD has two middle names and one of those is a flower name, so that is where Rose and Iris come from. First names are names I just like

Personally I wouldn't go with RIM even followed by a surname, but you seem happy with it and they're lovely names.

Thanks Captain, they are lovely names.

I'm not too worried over the initials RIMV..... or am I missing something?

For anyone who doesn't know, rimming is a fairly niche sexual practice. It's really not a reason to avoid those particular initials. People on here waaaay overanalyse sometimes.

Now if it was A.R.S.E or something, that'd be different

I know what rimming means, but I didn't get the significance of RIM with Smith.

I think it's silly to focus on the forename initials anyway. RIMV is fine.
