Louisa Madeleine is my first choice followed by Madeleine Louisa.
They flow well with a single syllable surname & also look nice written down.

TommyShelby · 28/04/2020 15:31

Louisa Madeline has a nice rhythm to it and is definitely the best in the list. I would put Josephine Louisa in second place ☺️

17caterpillars1mouse · 28/04/2020 15:32

Louisa Madeline is beautiful. Louisa is gorgeous, well known but unusual these days and Madeleine is lovely as an unexpected middle name. Like it the other way round too but think it flows better Louisa Madeleine

Coralie is nice enough

I like Mabel, not so keen on the two Ls together with Mabel Louisa

Josephine Louisa is also gorgeous. Love Josephine nn Joey

Really don't like Lyla

userabcname · 28/04/2020 15:41

I like Louisa, Madeleine and Coralie as first names. Lyla is ok. Really dislike Mabel and Josephine. If I had to pick one, I'd go for Madeleine.

MrsMonicaBing · 28/04/2020 15:43

Josephine Louisa!

Whatsyourflava · 28/04/2020 16:13

Madeleine Mabel and Lyla are my favourites from your list. Not too concerned about middle names that flow or whatever as in real life they’re rarely used. Just pick a middle name you like incase she chooses to change her name to it

Whatsyourflava · 28/04/2020 16:13

Oh coralie I really like too - hadn’t spotted that!

MikeUniformMike · 28/04/2020 16:48

It depends on the surname. She'll be Firstname Surname most of the time.

Louisa Madeleine - Yes. Lovely.
Madeleine Louisa - nice but I'm not keen on Maddy/Mads

  • Coralie Louisa - not keen on Coralie
  • Mabel Louisa - not keen on Mabel
  • Josephine Louisa - seems too long and doesn't flow. I like Josephine but I'm not keen on Josie.
  • Lyla Madeleine - I don't like Lyla.
LotusClover · 28/04/2020 16:48

Madeleine Louisa is my favourite. Madeleine is gorgeous as a first name.

I quite like Coralie and Lyla too.

Not a fan of Mabel or Josephine.

IVflytrap · 28/04/2020 16:48

Louisa Madeleine and Josephine Louisa flow the best, and sound the nicest together. In terms of names considered individually, my favourites are actually Coralie and Mabel though!

DramaAlpaca · 28/04/2020 20:59

Louisa Madeleine from your list.

But I like Louisa Josephine best of all.

wiltingflower · 28/04/2020 21:19

Louisa Madeleine

Dyra · 28/04/2020 21:36

I like Madeline Louisa most. Sounds so pretty and flows well. Louisa Madeline is a close second, but only because I prefer Maddie as a NN over Lou.

BikeRunSki · 28/04/2020 21:38

I also like them all, and Louisa Madeline best.

123Dancewithme · 29/04/2020 00:38

Louisa Madeleine or Josephine Louisa

NC4Now · 29/04/2020 00:40

Louisa Madeline. I love Louisa as a first name. It’s graceful and elegant. And Madeline flows nicely into a single syllable surname

ShyTown · 29/04/2020 00:44

I have a Madeleine Eloise so I’m somewhat biased but Madeleine Louisa is my favourite, closely followed by Louisa Madeleine. Coralie Louisa is also very nice. Josephine is ok, Personally I don’t especially like Mabel or Lyla.

Brummum905 · 29/04/2020 09:44

Thank you for opinions! I think I’m swaying towards either Louisa or Madeleine with the other as middle name - so nice and useful to hear reactions

Louisa Madeleine, Josephine Louisa and Madeleine Louisa are all lovely.

Less keen on the other names.

AlliKaneSon · 30/04/2020 01:39

Coralie Louisa is lovely (although I like all of your suggestions!).

XxRaeXx · 30/04/2020 02:04

@Brummum905I really love Madeleine Louisa! Lyla Madeleine is really great too!

Marimari93 · 01/05/2020 23:50

Louisa Madeline- goorgeeeous combo

Sb131216 · 04/05/2020 01:26

Louisa Madeline has a lovely flow and rhyme to it. So pretty

Liddell · 04/05/2020 01:47
