Middle name for Edith

I keep coming back to this name, it doesn't make me swoon but no girls names seem to be and I do like it and feel it's classic and pretty and also quite like the nn Edie although imagine we'd stick to Edith.

So for middle name I like the pairing Rose.

Edith Rose

Too predictable, boring?

Would love any suggestions for a middle name you have!

I really like Edith Rose - I can't think of a better middle name for Edith! Have you considered Eden?

Weird, I thought Rose too before opening the thread, but have no idea why! I think it's lovely.

ifcatscouldtalk · 29/04/2017 14:19

I also think Rose suits as a middle name perfectly. I really like Edie too.

Tilly28 · 29/04/2017 14:23

Iv got an Edith Natalie! :-) We always thought she'd be an Edie but she's not she's an Edith :-)

MrsDarkDestroyer · 29/04/2017 14:30

Edith Rose is a beautiful name. And Edie is a lovely nickname. How about Edith Martha, Edith Evelyn or Edith Isobel?
Alternatives Esther or Alice.

Oh interesting! Lots of positivity for Edith Rose. I thought you'd say it was too overused I think.

The more I think about it the more I like it!

I also really like Edith Louise and Edith Belle from suggestions but my front runner is still Edith Rose.

Dh likes it too but not completely head over heels.

We are Scottish and it's not a must to have a Scottish name but his favourite is Isla at the moment.

I'm another one who thought 'Edith Rose' before opening the thread. It flows beautifully.

MagnumAddict · 29/04/2017 14:32

That is he wants Isla as a first name not as a middle name for Edith!

MagnumAddict · 29/04/2017 14:34

I think it has a lovely flow too Smile

Hmmm stronger feelings toward the name are developing!!
