Out of those i would say Jennifer is my favourite, I also like Rachel

I prefer Coraline, over Caroline, so if that's an option that would be a favourite too

oneboy3girls · 24/06/2016 13:56

Thank you.Coraline is about unusual for me!

There aren't any names on the list I dislike though Rachel can be quite a hard sounding name depending on the accent. I don't think you need both Catherine and Kate, Just have Catherine and use Kate if it suits (or Katie/Cathy/Kitty/Kizzy etc). I have a bit of a soft spot for Jennifer, I've never met one I didn't like. And I also like Caroline predominately based on the song lyrics Sweet Caroline. :)

You don't get many Marys these days so that's good, I think Laura leaves me a bit "meh" though there is nothing wrong with it at all.

Did you want additional names as middle names or just combinations of what you have?

I'd probably put Mary in the middle for most is using your names though using Kate as a standalone works too for some e.g. Mary Kate, Jennifer Kate.

If you want different middle suggestions mixed in then I'd go:

Laura Jane
Mary Catherine/Kate
Rachel Louise
Jennifer Mary
Kate Suzanna
Catherine Mary
Caroline Anne

Can I suggest Laurel instead of Laura?

Laurel Catherine Marie
Laurel Mary Caroline

Lucked · 24/06/2016 20:50

They are all good, my favourites would be Laura or Caroline.

Kate, Catherine and Jennifer my least favourite but I by no means dislike them.

MadameJosephine · 24/06/2016 20:53

I have a 3yo Jennifer so I'm a little biased but it's my favourite from your list by miles.

MadameJosephine · 24/06/2016 20:55

We went for a family name for her middle name in the end but I also really liked Jennifer Jane

Lucked · 24/06/2016 20:55

most also good for middle names so you could double up but I would add Elizabeth, Anna and Margot in for MNs

ADHDMumofThree · 24/06/2016 21:01

I chose Melody Rachel for my eldest, I thought it was pretty so I'm a bit biased towards Rachel!

I think Kate is lovely too, you can be Kitty when you're being cute and Kate when you're being professional!

LadyAntonella · 24/06/2016 21:10

I like Mary best, then Rachel. Not terribly keen on the rest.

oneboy3girls · 25/06/2016 13:51

Thanks for such lovely ideas.Mary Isabella is certainly striking.
