Struggling to decide between these two names for DD4. Other daughters are Imogen, Eliza and Lara.

Which do you prefer - Claudia Eloise or Saskia Rose?

Many thanks Smile

Claudia

Claudia, but I'm biased as I have one. I love Saskia too but DH said I'd made it up. I showed him evidence that it was Danish (I think) and then he saw the bottled water in Lidl and it was vetoed.

Claudia. Fits right in.

Saskia is lovely.

Claudia has an unfortunate meaning (Latin)

Saskia is Dutch - Rembrandt's mistress I believe. Definitely not made up.

Claudia has different a pronunciation in Europe - Clow-dia - instead of Claw -dia in the UK. May be a consideration?

Saskia definitely

RebelandaStunner · 18/10/2016 14:34

Saskia.

There is always someone banging on about the 'unfortunate' meaning of Claudia on these threads, it's only a matter of time and so tedious.

Hayls17 · 18/10/2016 19:32

Saskia is lovely

Showgirl109 · 18/10/2016 19:36

Hate saskia, but I knew one at school who was a twat.

Claudia rose is beautiful

KittensWithWeapons · 18/10/2016 22:16

Claudia. I absolutely love it. Though I do think Claudia Eloise is a bit of a mouthful. Claudia Rose is just beautiful.

Pipilangstrumpf · 19/10/2016 10:12

Midsummer, the op wants our opinions on the names. And in my opinion the Latin meaning of Claudia puts me off. What on earth is tedious about that Hmm?

MotherDuckSaid · 21/10/2016 09:52

MotherDuckSaid · 21/10/2016 09:53

Eloise

Saskia was Rembrandt wife. It's a very popular name in the Netherlands.
