Fight over names.. Whose are better, mine or his? Juniper or Jane...

[CoralieConfused]

Ok, my top 3 girls names:
Juniper
Evangeline
Lilias

DP's:
Jane
Violetta
Constance

Compromise seems hard

More Junipers than Janes born last year!

Evangeline is the one of mine I could give up most easily. January is better

Juniper: Nice but popular.
Evangeline: Lovely!
Lilias: Very bice.

DP's:
Jane: As a middle name? Maybe
Violetta: Maybe
Constance: As a middle name, maybe. But I know so many Constances...

Evengeline Violette
Evangeline Lilias
Evangeline Jane

Lilias Constance
Lilias Evangeline
Lilias Jane

I really like January :)!

January Jane
January Evangeline
January Lilias

I like Juniper and Jane and think they'd both go well together.

January isn't the worst name I've heard, I've met one and she was born in April. But you'd have to be really cool to pull that off.

I like Juniper not Jane it's v dull and every Jane I know has felt the same! How about Juno as a compromise..
Do like Evangeline but yes lots of Evie ...how about Clementine?.starts with the same letter as Constance so that could be the compromise 😀
Prefer Violet to Violetta not so keen on Vi

Juniper is a fabulous name.

CricketRuntAndRashers I feel you're on my wavelength!

Oo! DP says he also likes Clemency.
I think it's ok, prefer Clementine

My nana was called Lilias. I love it too.(she didn't) most people called her Lily.

I like the late addition of January.

I do like Clementine :) DH's niece/godchild is named Clementine (nn Aprie...)

Anyhow. I personally don't like Clemency (although I do think it's better than Constance). So... Your DP seems to like virtue names?

I think I got a bit carried away by the excitement of a top 3, and forgot Evangeline doesn't quite belong there - let January take its place

If you're going to be so touchy (plain rude, actually) when someone expresses a solicited opinion; you have a rough ride ahead of you with that list...
Lilias?? And telling people to shut up doesn't make it sound any sweeter.

Haha yes, DP is a bit of a Puritan

I think they're all dreadful. Wipe the slate clean and start from scratch. (Not terribly helpful, I'll admit, but you did ask.)

Oh heyy, Floggingmolly Lovely to see you

Wipe the slate clean and start from scratch. Haha! Naw

Well, there are of course names like Temperance, Prudence or Patience. Tempie is imo a really cute nickname, but I personally wouldn't use it (especially not as a first name). You could use it as a 2nd or 3rd name as a compromise?

Or maybe Honor, Felicity or Valerie (instead of Valour)? Or maybe January virtue name (maybe DH's choice)?

Only names I like from either list are January (in an odd way!) and Constance

Good suggestions. (Though I like Honor...he doesn't! Annoying.)

Love January although January jones was born in January. Not sure it matters

Not a fan of January

Jane is the English version of the French Jehanne.

Any room for compromise there OP?

Juniper (Jennifer Juniper - Donovan song) I think Juniper is nice but could the kid live up to the name? How about June?

Evangeline (not keen ?flange I prefer Eva)
Lilias (prefer Lillian )

Jane (my favourite - simple, classic, pretty, easy to deal with)
Violetta (a bit fancy?)
Constance (a bit Victorian in a stuffy way - I read a lot of Victorian literature and see this name a lot so maybe it colours my view)

jehanne juniper - or the reverse?
