3 weeks old & still nameless

Help please! Baby girl is still unnamed. We are trying to narrow it down.

Which do you think sounds better - Alice Juno or Juno Alice? Both strong names I think.

I'm not 100% convinced on either but getting desperate. I originally wanted a name ending in an 'a' sound. Is Alice mega popular? We are in NZ at the moment. And Juno sounds a bit matchy to our DS Theo.

Thanks!

Juno Alice. I love The name Juno and I think it goes really well with Alice in this combination Smile

Like them both. What would her initials be? With Juno Alice you've the chance of a word! Might be a way to eliminate one!

sirmione16 · 28/08/2018 13:47

Alice Juno seems to flow better for me, and plus I agree with Juno and Theo sounding too similar

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 28/08/2018 13:51

If you want to use a MN I'd put Alice first.
As I would not put a middle name with Juno.
"Juno Alice, Yes she's lovely. eg same with Hugo. Hugo Arthur. Go where. IYSWIM.
Plus Alice June gives her the option of the nn AJ.
CongratulationsFlowers

I like both, but if you originally wanted a name ending in A, how about Alicia Juno? I think that sounds lovely.

Maireadd · 28/08/2018 14:10

I prefer Alice Juno. Alice goes better with Theo and I find Juno and Theo too similar.

askawayy · 28/08/2018 14:11

In my accent I'm hearing Juno Alice as Do you know Alice? So for that reason I wouldn't use Juno, it also sounds quite masculine to me, I would have assumed it was a boys name.

Witchofwisteria · 28/08/2018 14:25

You have thought about it too much.

Try calling her one name all day then the other name the day after.

See which one she feels like.

EducationComesFirst · 28/08/2018 14:50

I prefer Alice. I have the same question though, is it mega popular?

BabyItsAWildWorld · 28/08/2018 14:58

Just decide on the first name you like best.

Middle names, and how they sound with first names, are irrelevant and waste of head space and time.

Juno is too much like Theo.

You'd be saying Theo and Juno much more often than Juno Alice.

Theo and Alice sounds lovely.

Or if you want a name ending in a:

Theo and Anna

Peachbubble · 28/08/2018 15:16

I'd go with Alice Juno

Joeybee · 28/08/2018 15:30

Alice goes much better with Theo than Juno does. Also Alice is a classic, elegant, timeless name. I'd say go with Alice.

Alice Juno

ReginaPhalange89 · 28/08/2018 16:44

Juno Alice ! Love that

uncomfortablydumb53 · 28/08/2018 16:44

Alice Juno without a doubt

LarkDescending · 28/08/2018 16:47

Congratulations! How about Alicia or Eliza if you’re not convinced by Alice?

MorrisDancingViv · 28/08/2018 17:26

I find Alice really bland but Juno is spectacular

daisypond · 28/08/2018 19:09

I like both, but I think Juno is too matchy with Theo, so I'd go for Alice. Or would you consider Alicia or June even?

Soulqueen · 28/08/2018 19:10

Alice Juno for me
