We recently had DD number 3 and have to name her soon.
We are down to our final three.
I understand these might not be everyone's cup of tea, but we love them, they suit our other daughters names.

Could you tell me which you prefer?

India Rose

Mila Rose

Honey Rose

Thanks!

Oh I like Coco!

ASDA's Mila Rose hair accessory range would put me off that name, though it is lovely, so I'd go for India Rose. Smile

Mila if I had to pick. India is OK but a bit past its sell by date. Honey is lovely until the age of 6/7 and then it just becomes a bit ridiculous and twee IMO

MermaidTears · 10/09/2016 17:31

Ok honey is out.

Also do like Marley and am a big Bob fan also.

Rose is the other dds middle names so want to keep them the same. It's my middle name and my mums too. Boring but I wanted to link us all in some way.

I think Mila is Beautiful but I'm so drawn to India. Dp prefers Mila.

Down to the final two.

He doesn't like Marley after the bloody film with the dog.

India Rose for me! Gorgeous, and love Indie as a nickname!

Mila second choice!

LondonGirl83 · 10/09/2016 18:30

Mila. I'm nto a fan of India and I think Honey as a name for a girl might be something she regrets later on in life.

Caldini22 · 10/09/2016 19:45

Mila Rose.

I like Honey second best.

HoratioNightboy · 10/09/2016 20:28

Love Honey Rose - it feels really warm and friendly.

Really dislike India after I discovered the vile Katie Hopkins has one. Like Mila though. Congratulations on your new squidgy baby Flowers

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 11/09/2016 01:25

Congratulations!

I'd say Mila Rose.

DramaAlpaca · 11/09/2016 01:26

Another vote for Mila Rose.

India, it's lovely.

kookiekookie · 11/09/2016 07:44

no Rose!!!! It's so common and even though my nan's middle name was Rose and I could justify using it I still couldn't bring myself to.

Just no to India. Have you been to India? If you haven't, double no. Mia I find is very twee and it's very popular now too.

Honey is the best but you've got to imagine your child in several scenarios e.g. Being called at the doctors or at university graduation. 'Miss Honey xxxx --- how does that sound? If it sounds cringey then no.

Back to the drawing board?

kookiekookie · 11/09/2016 07:45

Ooo I re read it's Mila

  • fabulous! Definitely go for Mila (not Mia) I need glasses.

Have you 'heard it all now'?

Wow! I think it's naff to call your child after a city or country unless you've been there.

That is all.

SatsukiKusakabe · 11/09/2016 07:53

I think Mila Rose is lovely. Rose is a popular middle name because it is beautiful, classic and goes with everything. The fact that it is a shared family name makes it even better.

India is nice but I'm not overly keen on it because of its being a country, I find it hard to reconcile as a girl's name, though that isn't a problem for other people, I realise!

Honey - I wouldn't as I couldn't bear to think of all the leery comments she'd get from blokes over the years, but she might well be a strong character and not give a shit. I think it is very pretty though and only probably doesn't get used much because it is a term of endearment rather than anything else.

SatsukiKusakabe · 11/09/2016 07:55

You don't have to change the world with a middle name. My dd has my 'filler' middle name; we both have unusual first names, and the middle name is very pretty and commonly used for that reason.

I've already explained the rose middle names, we all have it. Boring or not.

Yes I have in fact been to India three times and we are going again next year hopefully.
The country means a lot to me, it's my favourite place in the world.

'back to the drawing board' is so rude when I clearly stated these are the names we liked and have picked!
