So, we like names that are funky, classic and a little bit 'Southern Belle' for lack of a better description.
We have Z0e Emi1ia, E11a BeatriCe, Is@bel Fr@ncesca, H@zel S0fia and Vio1et Ceci1ia.
We're really struggling to find a name that we think goes with the ggirls names and I feel like the pressure's on.
The names I like are Ruby Natasha, Bella Jane, Emily Mae and (wait for it!) Mattea Everie. I want an unbiased opinion which is why I have turned to mumsnet for my first ever post!
I am hovering towards one name at the minute but I want to check the wider public's reaction.

Thank you, Cristiano

Of those I like Ruby Natasha best.

If you like 'Southern Belle' names then Scarlett is another suggestion.

PeggySchuylar · 20/06/2018 21:23

You have some lovely first and second names for your DDs.

Of your suggestions I’m not sure I’d go for Bella with Ella and Isobel?

ZebraKid71 · 20/06/2018 21:40

Ruby or Mattea, surely you wouldnt have Bella when you already have Ella and Isobel? I also find Emily a bit samey.

DanielCraigsUnderpants · 20/06/2018 21:43

I love Emily Mae.

Beautiful

Sophronia · 20/06/2018 22:47

Ruby Natasha or Mattea Jane (not keen on Everie).

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 20/06/2018 22:55

You can't have an Emily with Emilia or Bella with Isobel.
I know youve not paired them up but Natasha Everie is lovely.

heebiejeebie · 20/06/2018 22:57

Mattea is a gorgeous name. Unless her father is Matthew

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 20/06/2018 22:57

You can’t have Bella with an Isobel.

Mammysin · 20/06/2018 23:02

Such beautiful names. I always think of Blanche , Scarlett, Margaret, Jolene (!), Carson, Harper, Atlanta, and Tatum for girls names - lucky you six beautiful girls

Jammycustard · 20/06/2018 23:06

Ruby

LucyFox · 20/06/2018 23:12

Harriet would fit well
Lavinia
Helena
Natalie Grace
Elizabeth/Elisabeth
Melanie
Victoria
Amelia
Caroline

I like Mattea best but not the middle name at all. Mattea Ruby?

If it has to be the set middle name's I'll go for Ruby Natasha

Cosmoa · 21/06/2018 11:28

Mattea is definitely my favourite! Why have you written the names with 1's and @ symbols though?

Username12345 · 21/06/2018 11:50

So they can't be searched for.

I like Ruby Natasha. Agree you can't have Bella.

DeckSofa · 21/06/2018 12:06

I like Ruby Natasha (or even better, Natasha Ruby).

Frazzled2207 · 21/06/2018 13:25

Shock at six girls!!
Wowsers
Agree you can't have Emily or Bella.

What about Florence? Or Eleanor?/Elena

Flamingosnbears · 21/06/2018 13:28

Mattea, all the others are two a penny (depending on your area) if popularity doesn't bother you then any of them are fine

Racecardriver · 21/06/2018 13:34

Mattea is great. Iove it.

GahWhatever · 21/06/2018 13:38

Southern Belle?
Maudie Louise
Louisa Jane

MariaMadita · 21/06/2018 13:39

Mattea is beautiful. :)

RavenWings · 21/06/2018 13:40

Ruby Natasha - fine
Bella Jane - no. Bella is bland as fuck and anyway, you already have an Ella and Isabel. It'll be very samey. Love Jane though.
Emily Mae - Emily is ok but Mae is very generic, filler type of name. Emily Jane?
Mattea Everie - this doesnt say Southern belle to me. I'm not against it though.

I will say though that Ruby, Emily and Bella are generic trendy girl names to me, rather than southern belle iyswim. There's nothing wrong with trendy names, but I don't get the vibe you're aiming for from them. Some of the suggested names (Scarlett etc) really have that feel.

starkid · 21/06/2018 13:44

Sorry I've played with name ordering, but I like:
Mattea Jane
Natasha Jane
Natasha Mae
