Middle name is Juliana, at least that's decided. This is the list, what's your top pick - even if it's 'the one I hate least'. (Sorry to all those who may have noticed me harping on about some of these before...)

Ada Juliana
Juniper Juliana -
(would probably have nickname Juno)
Freya Juliana
Lilias Juliana

Ada is lovely.

Freya is overused and sounds like "fraying" fabric.

Juniper is not a pretty name at all. The "nipper" part is all I hear.

Jojo19834 · 02/02/2020 10:16

Freya

Astronica · 02/02/2020 11:29

Juniper.

IckleBear · 02/02/2020 11:31

Freya or Juniper

Mamabear88 · 02/02/2020 12:15

Freya!

SoupDragon · 02/02/2020 12:18

Freya.

Although, like others, I like Juliana the best!

Juniper Juliana is my least favourite - it doesn't sound nice at all to me.

Love Juniper.
Ada is lovely too.

autumnkate · 02/02/2020 12:55

Why don’t you call her Juno?
Juno Juliana flows nicely

Mammyloveswine · 02/02/2020 13:54

Freya or Ada.

Ava Juliana is lovely too!

SoupDragon · 02/02/2020 15:00

Juno Juliana flows nicely

It sounds like "d'you know Juliana?" to me 😂

SoupDragon · 02/02/2020 15:01

you mention the nickname Juno - that works for Juliana too.

toomuchteaandcake · 02/02/2020 15:20

Ada

OldFirstTimeMum · 02/02/2020 15:59

I just imagine she'll be called Jules so much if Juliana - no matter how much I want Juno :/ @SoupDragon

If you like the nn Juno call her Juno. It’s a great name.

Juliana is my fav of your list. It’s possible that Juno might stick but you can’t control her friends.

Fishfingersandwichplease · 02/02/2020 20:45

Freya all the way!!

Urkiddingright · 03/02/2020 10:55

Ada.

Marcipex · 03/02/2020 10:56

Juno is lovely, Freya second best.

SoupDragon · 03/02/2020 11:48

I've just remembered why Juno bothers me! My friend had a large Labrador called Juno. Over 40 years ago 😂

Whenever I've seen the name on here there has always been a little niggle of "wrong" and I couldn't work out why. Odd howname associations stay with you.

Crockof · 03/02/2020 12:12

Lilias is very similar to lily, lilana, Lilia, and will get shortened to lily, Lil. Also does sound like lily ass as a pp said.

EstebanTheMagnificent · 04/02/2020 07:17

Juniper and Juliana are both lovely but they are hideous together. Juno is beautiful as a given name too.

Your list made me think of the Italian name Ginevra.

ThanksItHasPockets · 04/02/2020 07:21

Why can’t you call her Juno? It’s a legitimate name in its own right. Juniper Juliana is a terrible mouthful. It’s partly the number of syllables and partly the dactylic metre of Juniper (dum-di-di).

missmouse101 · 04/02/2020 07:23

Juniper is the nicest name. Bit of a mouthful with the middle name but it doesn't matter tbh. Ada is a dreadful geriatric name like Beryl or Gladys!Sad
