Oral Florence, very pretty.

*Orla damn auto correct.

ClockMakerSue · 27/08/2016 19:56

Orla Naomi (Orla Florence has two Ls close together which feels clumsy when I say it!).

I think Orla Naomi works best, Florence is a lovely name but doesn't "flow" as nicely with Orla.

Loyly · 27/08/2016 19:59

Orla Naomi only because the repeated 'Or' in Orla Florence doesn't flow well.

DramaAlpaca · 27/08/2016 20:01

I think Orla Florence flows slightly better, but both are really lovely.

Florence flows better than Naomi for me

Orla Naomi is my favourite.
Just prefer how it sounds.

2/3rds for Naomi, but a substantial 1/3rd for Florence. We like Florence best but and had settled on it but then had a wobble. It goes better with our other childrens' middle names (Edith and Eleanor) - I know matching middle names with siblings hardly matters, except I want them to feel they were all equal in our eyes, if you know what I mean! And goes better with our surname, too, I think.

Anyway, will prob keep both up our sleeve and see what she looks like! Thank you for your responses!

Orla Florence.

I think Orla and Florence are much more the same 'types' of names (retro, pretty, without being floofy). Naomi is lovely, but not the same vibe, IMO.

Orla Florence

Though I smiled at Oral Florence Grin
