Middle name for Charlotte / Lottie

We have decided on Charlotte if we have a girl, but she will always be known to us as Lottie.

We were going to have Charlotte Elizabeth as that is the name of both of our grandparents. It also works well with both Charlotte and Lottie. Then I realised that this is Princess Charlotte's name and I feel people would assume that's why we picked it and I think that would irritate me! Here are our other suggestions:

Charlotte May
Charlotte Olivia
Charlotte Florence
Charlotte Isobel
Charlotte Ada
Our last name is Jamieson.

Which do you think, or have any other suggestions?

Nobody will know it’s princess Charlotte’s full name and it honours both grandmothers, so stick with Charlotte Elizabeth (or lottie Lizzie!)

My favourite from your list is Ada. What about:
Charlotte Jane
Charlotte Grace
Charlotte Avery
Charlotte Lily
Charlotte Rose
Charlotte Eve

My Dd is Charlotte Elizabeth, a few years older than Princess Charlotte. But it’s two long names for a child to learn to spell. Whilst I love her name if I’d thought about it she would have had a shorter middle name.

Charlotte Ada and Charlotte Olivia are lovely! How about:

Charlotte April
Charlotte Beth
Charlotte Eve
Charlotte Freya
Charlotte Ivy
Charlotte Jasmine
Charlotte Lily
Charlotte Sophia
Charlotte Zoe

Charlotte Joy?

redwoodmazza · 17/04/2020 14:50

Charlotte Marie seems to go well?

NewModelArmyMayhem18 · 17/04/2020 14:52

Charlotte Ada doesn't trip off the tongue though?

Charlotte Olivia or Charlotte Mary

Floralnomad · 17/04/2020 14:53

Just a thought and remembering your other thread if you are going to just call her Lottie and the Charlotte is purely a formality you could always go with Carlotta and then use Elizabeth .

Charteta · 17/04/2020 14:56

Charlotte Victoria

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 17/04/2020 16:41

Out of your list I love Charlotte Olivia

Louise (Lottie-Lou for family nickname).

Charlotte Olivia
Charlotte Amelia

I think Charlotte Elizabeth is fine. No one knows the royals’ middle names. Elizabeth has meaning to you. I think you should stick with it.

daisypond · 17/04/2020 16:58

Or maybe a derivative like Eliza or Elise?

CookieDoodles · 17/04/2020 16:58

LoisLittsLover - I think you have found us 'the one' there!
I've always liked Aliza but hubby was never keen. But he likes Eliza - and we still kind of get our Elizabeth reference too.
Charlotte Eliza / Lottie Eliza

I'd stick with Elizabeth
If you want it to look a little less like the princess you could spell it Elisabeth or use Beth/ Eliza to still connect to that family name

Whatsyourflava · 17/04/2020 17:31

Charlotte Eliza is so beautiful @CookieDoodles 🥰

Alternatively
Charlotte Edith
Margaret
Clementine
Martha
When

LoisLittsLover · 18/04/2020 20:25

They're the names of my 2 daughters, beautiful. Congratulations and good luck with everything

Great choice! We've chosen Charlotte Elise Smile
