We're going round and round in circles finding a name for our baby. Can you help? We have a shortlist and will probably pick a first and middle name from it but are open to suggestions too.

Thea
Alice
Juliet or Julietta
Emmeline
Rosanna
Elizabeth

Love Thea......Thea Elizabeth

Thank you, are there any names here that you think are awful or to be avoided?

Not a fan of Rosanna but I really love Emmeline and Alice.

MikeUniformMike · 10/12/2016 12:58

I like Alice, Rosanna and Elizabeth, but not the others. I like Rosalind.

SausageSoda · 10/12/2016 13:40

I like Thea and Emmeline

Thea Emmeline

Really lovely. And very original.

The only Thea I've ever met in RL was exceptionally smart and had a sense of humour way beyond her years...definitely a kid who stood out for all the right reasons!

Juliet(te) is my favourite. I'm not keen on your other names but Juliet Emmeline or Juliet Elizabeth work nicely.

Howaboutthisone · 10/12/2016 14:07

Oo Thea Elizabeth is lovely.

CakeRattleandRoll · 10/12/2016 16:09

Love Rosanna. And really like Juliet.

10Betty10 · 10/12/2016 17:05

I second Thea Emmeline. Lovely name.

Sophronia · 10/12/2016 17:32

Rosanna Juliet

brackengirl · 10/12/2016 17:50

I have a Rosanna, I'd highly recommend it! She is Rosanna Eve but I also like Rosanna Elizabeth, Rosanna Alice or Rosanna Juliet

SoftBlocks · 10/12/2016 17:50

Thea or Juliet.

TenThousandSpoons · 10/12/2016 17:56

Prefer Emma or Emily to Emmeline but love the others.
Favourites:
Juliet Alice
Thea Juliet
Alice Elizabeth

Glitterspy · 10/12/2016 17:59

I know a little Theia, she's gorgeous. Rosanna is also beautiful!

MagicChanges · 10/12/2016 17:59

They're all lovely but I think Emmeline could get shortened by friends as show grows up to Emmie/Emma and there are just so many of those about. Rosanna is lovely but chances are she'll get called Rosie (but that's nice) Elizabeth will probably become Lizzie - I like Juliet but think Julietta is a bit OTT - now Thea can't be shortened! My DGD has a friend Lizzie (Elizabeth) and Al (Alice!) If you don't mind the shortened versions it won't be a problem.

ieatyellowsnow · 10/12/2016 18:46

Thea Emmeline

Kelsey28 · 10/12/2016 19:02

I really like Thea. I know a lovey little girl called Thea

bluechameleon · 10/12/2016 20:07

I like them all. My favourites are Emmeline and Juliet. I also like Elizabeth because it has so many good nicknames.

MoonHare · 10/12/2016 22:14

Love Thea!
Been trying to convince others to name their daughters this ever since I neglected to.

WhiteHairReally · 11/12/2016 16:56

Some really lovely names.

Just wanted to point out that people who have issues pronouncing the 'th' sound turn the elegant 'Thea' into 'Fear' which is not so charming.

enqueue · 12/12/2016 22:38

I have just posted a shortlist of 6 girl's names for opinions too! Of your list I really like Alice and Emmeline. Really don't like Thea or Rosanna, sorry. Looks like Thea is pretty popular though going by others' opinions.

thegirlinthecar · 12/12/2016 22:46

Thea is lovely . I met the most adorable one the other day . Thea Juliet is my choice
