Narrowing it down!

Thanks to everyone for their help with removing Tuppence from our names list earlier in the week 😂

We have narrowed choices down to -

Clara Florence Reona Cl...
Harriet Florence Reona Cl...
Persephone Florence Reona Cl...
Florence Persephone Reona Cl...

Florence and Reona are both family names, what are your opinions on these?

I won't comment, I like Tuppence Grin

Personally I think two middle names are daft because they'll never be used, but that's just my opinion.

I like Harriet Florence Sad

Persephone Florence Reona

Harriet Florence Reona

Harriet

RomiiRoo · 28/01/2016 20:57

Clara Florence but as you have Cl... as your surname, that is too much.

Persephone Florence sounds nice. Actually, that is probably my favourite combination.

All our children have two middle names, family tradition going way back...

Blimey, you are going to get fed up filling out forms! Wink

Which is your favourite name? How the name flows with the middle names is pretty irrelevant as in normal life you never give out your middle name.

I like ALL the names except Persephone.

I like Harriet Florence :)

Clara or Harriet

Sophronia · 28/01/2016 22:53

Harriet Florence Reona

Pepsioften100 · 28/01/2016 23:09

Hmm if Florence and reona are compulsory and also must be two middle names I would go for Harriet Florence or if you want Clara then put it as one of the middle name so it's not Clara Cl.... for most normal name things.

Jermajesty · 28/01/2016 23:10

Persephone, non Percy, fabulous name!

Jermajesty · 28/01/2016 23:11

Harriet Florence x

BroadcastHouse · 29/01/2016 07:30

Aww Tuppence! Loved it!
Florence is my favorite of these four, and I guess slightly less controversial than TuppenceWink

Thetruthfairy · 29/01/2016 09:15

Love Persephone nn Seffy
Like them all actually. You can't go wrong really xx

pilates · 29/01/2016 10:18

Harriet, followed closely by Clara.

Dogadviceneeded · 29/01/2016 11:19

Does your surname begin with Cla? Or Cl something else?

Clara is a lovely name but imo Clara Clarke (for example) would be too much, whereas Clara Clooney (are you Amal??) Would be fine.

JingsAndCrivens · 29/01/2016 11:20

Clara - beautiful
Harriet - I think this is quite an ugly name and can't understand why it's popular
Persephone - it's a bit fancy for me. Sephy is nice though
Florence - not as bad as Harriet but I'm not hugely keen
