Candida

[Penny4Thoughts]

Sorry.... I couldn’t think of a title that hadn’t been done / anyone would find interesting

Somehow we’ve gone from not being able to find a name we agree on, to having an actual shortlist !

What do you think? If you hate them all that’s really ok

Juliet Josephine
Rosa Josephine
Matilda Josephine
Rory David
Henry David

That would be London.

Off the top of my head - Julia Somerville, Julia Donaldson, Julia Bradbury, Julia Roberts, Julia Stiles, Juliet Stevenson, Juliette Lewis, Juliette Binoche...

@TatianaLarina half of those are a different name

Oh my god OP you had me there for a second well played!

Rosa Juliet would be my choice !
And Henry David

@PavlovaFaith

@frownprincess Rosa Juliet does sound beautiful!

I like Rosa and Rory best. Though might be a bit of a mouthful if you used the other for a subsequent child...
Not a fan of Henry or Matilda but there’s nothing wrong with them.
I don’t think Juliet Josephine goes as a combination.

I was at secondary school with a Candida.... I don’t think anyone really commented on her name back then (she may have changed it now!)

It’s not a different name - it’s the same name with a different ending.

If you read my pp I said I knew loads of ‘Julias and Juliets’.

Matilda Josephine goes best, I think, though I do like Juliet a lot. And Rory David.

@WineOrGin yes my Grandmother

I am not keen on Juliet, all the ones I know were born in the 70s.

Henry is overrated.

Not really a fan of Rosa, I don't know why...

I really love by Rory but I roll my rs so it sounded a bit shit when I said Rory out loud Matilda is lovely so those two would be my pick!

Juliet Josephine is a bit of a mouthful, though I guess you wouldn’t say them together much. I think Rosa has the edge for your girls’ names. Henry David is really nice, not keen on Rory.

Love the name Juliet, my Dd is Lucy but would have gone for Juliet if ex dp had agreed.
Yes how does someone who doesn’t pronounce their R’s pronounce Rory?

i like Josie Rosaleen

and Rory David.

romanyqueen how do you pronounce Rory? 😀

Very like my own lists! Love them!

Anything but Matilda.

Juliet and Rory get my vote!

Juliet is my favourite "never gonna get used" name!

Also Josephine is a fab name belonging to my crazy little 5 year old...good choice!

OKPedro

Roary like a lion does with a "Y" at the end.

Juliet, Rosa and Rory are my faves.

(Excellent clickbait thread title, btw)

Love Juliet Josephine. Also Rory Avid would be my favourite. They're all lovely names tho
