Liberty or Elodie?

[Lumay]

DD is Esmé, what do you think of Elodie or Liberty as a name for another girl? Does it go with Esmé? Or other suggestions! Thanks xx

Liberty!

Do remember some will hate whatever you choose.
Others that might appeal:
Olive

Madeleine
Eleanor
Marnie
Bethany

With a strong Eh sound in Esmé, other pretty (and different initial names) that I like are

Heather
Penny
Genevieve

Or similar first syllable with Esmés second syllable like Freya?

Some suggestions:-

Ava, Anya, Anais, Athena, Beau, Brianne, Brianna, Bella, Cleo, Clara, Cassia, Dawn, Darcy, Ethel, Edith, Eden, Emily, Freya, Ffion, Fleur, Gianna, Giselle, Genevieve, Georgia, Hallie,Imogen, Isla, Jasmine, Kayla, Layla, Leah, Luna, Lowri, Lorna, Marnie, Mair, Mia, Nia, Natalia, Natasha, Ottilie, Ophelia, Quinn, Remy, Savannah, Sienna, Sadie, Ensley, Layne, Piper, Harper, Harriet, Thea, Thalia, Mila, Vivienne, Violet, Wren, Willow

Elodie is quite a middle aged name, in France anyway. Liberty sounds a bit... uncouth.

Liberty is better unless you don't mind a lifetime of spelling Elodie. Also a bit try too hard unless you are French.

How about Lydia ?

Liberty is nicer and goes better with Esme in my opinion.

Ooh I do like Lydia!

Absolutely love them both. Wouldn't be able to pick a favourite.

Not helpful at all I'm afraid, sorry!

Elodie

Celeste, Eloise, mathilde, Lea.

Lots of lovely French names. I do not like Liberty as a name.

Liberty, I would choose out of those two names.

Personally I would not use the same initial for my children, for one thing I think it’s a little twee and a more practical reasons, post etc. could be confusing as to which Miss e Lumay the letter is for.

Verity
Felicity

be aware of having two same initials in the family, tres difficile

Verity.
Lydia.
Louisa.
Felicity.
Annabel.

Destiny?
Grace
Hope
Faith

Bernadette
Berenice

I love Elodie!! I think it's beautiful! Both Esme and Elodie were on my list when I was pregnant!

Not a fan of Liberty at all!

What about Amelia to go with Esme? Or Amelie?

But I think Elodie and Esme sound lovely together!

Elodie

I much prefer Elodie, and I think Esme and Elodie are lovely as a pair of sisters - not too similar at all.

Elodie

Find it really funny that posters on here say having the same initial will be a real problem for “post” 🤣Barely any companies send things through the post anymore. That worry is going to be very out of date very quickly!!

Elodie is besutiful

Liberty!

Elodie. Liberty looks nicer written down than it sounds out loud.

Out of the two, I would pick Liberty. Although I really like Eloise, having two daughters called Miss E Surname means they’ll open each other’s post.

Someone once told me that lots of the French names that I think are lovely (like Elodie) are quite dated in France. Not being French (or living in France), I don’t know how true this is.
