Betty Maud or Maud Betty?

[Hildegard36]

We definitely want to use Betty and Maud in dd’s name in some form - after mine and dh’s grandmothers.

We’re wavering between using both the names as middle names, and having something else first e.g. Madeleine/Caroline/Jemima/Eleanor Betty Maud

Or just using those two names, one as first, one as middle.
I.e. Maud Betty or Betty Maud

Our surname is two syllables, starts with O, along the lines of Oakland

Any opinions on Betty and Maud as first names?

Betty Maud is lovely 

Elizabeth Maud is lovely ...

Betty Maud

I like both names, but I’d put both in the middle of it were me. It seems fairer. I really like Jemima Betty Maud!

Elizabeth Maud.

Sorry, I'm not much help because I'm not keen on Maud & I don't like Betty at all.

Elizabeth would give her more options. I reckon the Betty you are naming her after would have been an Elizabeth anyway.

Eleanor or Madeleine Betty Maud

Elizabeth Maid (Betty or Betsy)

Maud

Elizabeth Maud is lovely

It is, but my grandmother was always Betty.

In fact, her mother had wanted to call her Elizabeth, but was worried it would get shortened to Lizzie, which she hated, so just called her Betty by itself! So Elizabeth wouldn’t feel like it was after my grandma if that makes sense.

She was actually just Betty - her mother had thought about calling her Elizabeth, but hated the inevitable Lizzie!

I love Betty and Maud although Betty Maud reminds me of the Betty Ford clinic 

Betty Maud flows better than Maud Betty, it’s a lovely classic name, ‘vintage’ names are coming back into fashion too

I also think Betty Maud flows better.

Both awful. Sorry.

Elizabeth Maud and call her Betty. Betty as a first name is awful, sorry.

Bettt Maud makes me think Betty Ford as well.

I'd personally put them both in the middle . They're both way too old fashioned for my taste I'm afraid !
I do think Betty Maud flows better though so I'd put them in that order.

Maud’s derived from Matilda
Love Matilda Betty

Matilda Elizabeth or Elizabeth Matilda - that way both grandmothers get a nod with a form of their names, while not being their exact names. I'm really not keen on Maud or Betty.

Betty Maud.

I'm not keen on Betty or Maud, and together it seems a bit overkill on the 'older lady names'. I'd use them both as middle names and give your baby her own name.

Betty Maud is gorgeous!
Absolutely love Betty as a first name
