I really love the name Camilla but I'm worried it sounds awful with our surname. Are they just go similar?

Antigone is fab! Tiggy for short.

HardcoreLadyType · 15/10/2016 19:46

I also like Astrid and Emmeline.

Move2yorkshire · 15/10/2016 19:47

I do love Tiggy as a nickname.

Me too, also love Astrid.

I like Theodora and Emmeline, although Emmeline has the M and L letters which would repeat in your surname.

Evangeline Miller sounds lovely.

MelCookie · 15/10/2016 21:40

Absolutely love all the names you suggested - except Astrid. Antigone and Emmeline especially fab.

Shurelyshomemistake · 15/10/2016 21:44

Amandine?
But I like your other suggestions, too.

Emmeline Miller sounds gorgeous.

TheOldestCat · 16/10/2016 01:51

Beth Miller? Beautiful. As is Astrid and Elizabeth. Emmeline too many Ls and Ms with Miller I think.

What about Octavia?

There's still Camden and Cameron if you're stuck on Cammie for a NN.

Otherwise... Camilla Miller is something akin to naming her Seymour Buttz. You're just going to set her up to be mocked mercilessly for life, sorry.

Theodora is pretty! She could be Teddy for short, like the character on Grey's Anatomy.

KoalaDownUnder · 16/10/2016 02:57

Astrid is lovely.

Or Asta. I know I said no -a names

Carmel Miller?

I love Emmeline Miller (slightly biased though)
My next favorites is Antigone, but I agree that she'll have a life of mispronouncing and misspelling trouble.
Theodora is also lovely, with plenty of nn options.
How about Clara?

Move2yorkshire · 16/10/2016 11:24

Not a fan of Carmel, Cameron or Camden.

I like Octavia but not sure dh will

Reminds me of the peru drug mule Michaela Mccollum-Connoly, i remember thinking did no one try sounding her names out first?

Don't do it!
