Nicest name between Hazel and Camille?

I promise this will be the last one lol. I've officially decided it's between these two names. Middle name is Eve. So it's between Hazel Eve or Camille Eve.

Camille

Camille is pretty but sounds French. Do you or your dp have any French heritage? I wonder if your dd will be asked if she is French. It's not a deal breaker- just pause for thought.

Hazel without a doubt.

Hazel

I don't think Hazel works with Eve. When you have two names that are also both regular words, it sounds very odd.

Camille

I'm not keen on Eve as a middle name. No matter what first name I put in, it sounds like the night before it when put together.

How would you pronounce Camille?

(If the French way then I prefer that over Hazel, but if not then definitely Hazel, as Camille with an L sound is far too close to camel)

lecossaise · 11/04/2018 00:53

... although Camille Eve is really hard to say if you're pronouncing it Ca-meey so I guess you're not. So Hazel!

Camille.

Camille is fab but only if you are French. Hazel is meh.

Quantumblue · 11/04/2018 01:08

I think they are both lovely names but don't work with Eve.
Hazel Camille sounds better.

Marcipex · 11/04/2018 01:11

Camille, though I prefer Camilla.

Hazel seems a bit frumpy in comparison, sorry.

crunchtime · 11/04/2018 01:13

They don't work with eve

Camilla eve would be better

Eve is frumpy

NoSquirrels · 11/04/2018 01:18

Hazel.

CircleSquareCircleSquare · 11/04/2018 01:21

Hazel but I don’t think Eve runs along nicely afterward, it sounds big clunky.

CircleSquareCircleSquare · 11/04/2018 01:21

*a bit

flybabyfly · 11/04/2018 05:11

Hazel Eve

AnyaMoondial · 11/04/2018 05:36

Hazel

Camille.

Coey2016 · 11/04/2018 06:30

Camille, very pretty

ReversingSnail · 11/04/2018 07:56

Out of the two, Hazel.

Madeline18 · 11/04/2018 07:58

I like Hazel more but I think Camille Eve sounds better together.

17caterpillars1mouse · 11/04/2018 08:08

I much prefer Hazel however i dony think Eve really goes with either name.

Have you considered Hazel Eva or Hazel Evelyn
