Stuck between two girls names

Wanting peoples opinions and thoughts on these two girls names I can’t decide between.

Ita Vogue

Or

Vogue Marlo
I really love both but am unsure of peoples reactions to the name vogue. Is it too out there?

Would you consider Balonz?

RubyFlint · 21/02/2018 23:05

Y Y Balonz

MikeUniformMike · 21/02/2018 23:05

Harper Bazaar would be a good alternative or Tatler Porter.

RubyFlint · 21/02/2018 23:07

Great name Balonz

Just so you all know people, these are names I have found in Australian baby name books.
I haven’t made them up. Maybe us aussies are a little out there /crazy compared to other countries 😊😜

Yeah. They're mad them Aussies.

MikeUniformMike · 21/02/2018 23:19

Balonz is more Surrey than Sydney

bizzledrizzle Grin very good

Surprised by the reaction to Ita- I know a few in Ireland, it's certainly a completely different category of name to vogue here. Much more of a granny name, though a) those are becoming v fashionable and b) I do know one in her thirties.

It's short, easy to pronounce and spell, and assuming the baby will be in Australia may be more commonly known there. I'd go with Ita.

Vogue is dreadful.

Oysterbabe · 22/02/2018 11:29

It's a no from me.

Sophronia · 22/02/2018 11:30

The only Vogue I know is a Doberman Grin

brizzledrizzle · 22/02/2018 11:50

Thank you elfyn

Cosmoa · 22/02/2018 12:24

Both are really awful imo!

Cosmoa · 22/02/2018 12:25

I like crazy unique names but I just don't like those atall!

mikeyssister · 22/02/2018 13:22

Ita is usually pronounced EE-ta in Ireland not Eye-ta.

SofieMonde · 22/02/2018 13:53

How about Take A break and Woman's Weekly - very unique girls names

SofieMonde · 22/02/2018 13:55

@Mike I raise your Grazia Croyden to Grazia Croydinnit :)

Joeybee · 23/02/2018 05:17

Ita is lovely. I'm really not a fan of Vogue...but it's only a middle name and works well with Ita. Marlo is a bit too masculine sounding for a girl to me.

FizzyGreenWater · 23/02/2018 08:24

Kerrang?

More retro feel

Songofthesouth · 23/02/2018 08:38

Ita is lovely and really isn’t too out there!

Don’t like Vogue but if it’s a middle name then...why not🤷🏻‍♀️

tortelliniforever · 23/02/2018 08:39

Ita is pronounced I-ta
That doesn't really help!

Shmithecat · 23/02/2018 08:41

@MikeUniformMike I'm dying 😂😂😂😂😂

MrsMoastyToasty · 23/02/2018 08:42

Both sound like a limited edition car design.

Twickerhun · 23/02/2018 08:46

I know an Ita, she’s lovely, mid 20s.
Vogue is seedlings but if you must use it why not try Ita En Vogue? Much classier innit?
