If only choose Bonnie from these.

Mabel has charm though, could be a grower for me!

sharpstick · 05/03/2019 15:08

*I’d only

pearldeodorant · 05/03/2019 15:15

I love Nina. Sorry really don't like bonnie or Mabel

IggyAce · 05/03/2019 15:19

Mabel.
I quite like Bonnie but wouldn’t choose it because with middle name her initials would be BJ and that makes me think of blow job.

BlueMerchant · 05/03/2019 15:20

Carla is my favorite. Like Nina.

AnneLovesGilbert · 05/03/2019 15:21

Bonnie

Lydia55y · 05/03/2019 15:32

These names aren't particularly to my taste, however i'd choose Nina.

Bonnie, Tessa and Mabel are all a bit dog/horse names for me, sorry!

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 05/03/2019 16:13

Prefer Tess to Tessa.

Icklepup · 05/03/2019 16:44

Tessa June

Sophronia · 06/03/2019 04:13

Nina

Milasmummy · 06/03/2019 05:10

Nina.
Dislike the others

cushioncuddle · 06/03/2019 05:16

Be mindful that Bonnie and Mable are names that are fashionable now. These will be names that most girls who have it will be a similar age.

HeronLanyon · 06/03/2019 05:24

I know a bonnie and I like it but don’t at all like bonnie June Frankly though how often do any of us say or have said out loud our first and middle names together other than for forms etc. Oh and wedding vows - will never forget friend who had kept midddle name pearl fairly secret until we all heard it at wedding ! Hmmm the bj issue would make me rethink middle name or reject best name on your list.

Mummaaon · 06/03/2019 06:40

Mabel of bonnie so super cute. Others little old lady in my opinion sorry xx

TildaTurnip · 06/03/2019 06:44

Anything but Bonnie. Bonnie is a description and awful as a name!

Nina is lovely and like Mabel.
