Opinion on the name, middle name would be Alice

I lie Alice Eliza more.

Love Eliza, the name I would have chosen if no 4 was a for. Not sure it goes brilliantly with Alice but one of my girls has forst name beginning with E and middle name A so I'm probably wrong!

Love it. Think Eliza Alice is fine.

Eliza Alice sounds lovely!

PinkAvocado · 21/12/2017 10:40

It’s lovely.

I love both names but not sure I'd use them together as (IMO) they are just too similar.

Eliza Juliet
Eliza Madeleine
Eliza Polly
Alice Natalia
Alice Christabel
Alice Emilia

... as suggestions of alternates.

I think it's lovely! I have a Daisy Alice Smile

I love both Eliza and Alice, but find them a bit too similar and probably wouldn't put them together for that reason, myself. Also I don't find it ideal to have one name ending in the letter A and the next name beginning with an A. Alice Eliza flows a little easier. There is the potential for Eliza Alice to come out sounding like "Eliza Ralice", because a lot of people unconsciously insert Rs between words to make them flow.

Then again, how often do people even say someone's full name...?

Love it! Gorgeous name.

XmasTreeOhXmasTree · 21/12/2017 13:06

Lovely.

I love Eliza! I don't think it really goes with Alice though - how about Eliza Jane or Eliza Marie?

Sallyswot1 · 21/12/2017 13:59

I have an Alice Josephine. Names don't really go, but we liked Alice, and I had a really cool elderly great aunt called Josephine that I loved!

I have an Eliza and still think it's the best girls name ever :-) we're currently struggling to find equally awesome boys names at the moment!
Our DD has the middle name Kate. I kind of also don't think Alice really goes but I don't think it sounds bad at all, and I don't think it matters much. Yes I would probably pronounce Eliza Ralice but everyone would know which two names I meant.
