Hi all, my sister is due in mid July and has asked for opinions on her shortlist Smile

Eliza- her husbands mother was Elizabeth who sadly passed last year. If they go for any of the others they want Elizabeth as mn
Matilda
Tess
Maeve
Charlotte

Eliza is a gorgeous name, I'd choose that if it's a favourite and is in tribute to baby's paternal grandmother. Eliza Charlotte is a lovely pairing if they want to use one of the others as a middle name.

I like a Eliza Maeve best

ClementineTangerine · 27/05/2020 00:48

The only one I'm not keen on is Maeve- love Eliza and Tess and Matilda and charlotte!

As above Eliza Charlotte is lovely

StellaDelMare · 27/05/2020 00:51

I love the name Eliza. I would go for Eliza Maeve!

Tess is very underused!

AdaColeman · 27/05/2020 01:17

Maeve is my favourite, with Matilda a close second, both would go well with Elizabeth. I’m not keen on Eliza, it’s too My Fair Lady for me.

Love eliza and Matilda

LotusClover · 27/05/2020 11:41

Eliza Charlotte is lovely. I like Maeve Elizabeth too.

ButDoUAvocado · 27/05/2020 11:45

Love Matilda and the nn Matti
Charlotte is ok, bit boring.
Maeve is really nice.
Tess makes me think of testicles.

I know two Elizas. One is E-leeza and the other is E-lie-za. Guaranteed I’ll say the wrong version every time I see either of them.

I love all of them. Doesn't help but thought it nice to say :)

CorianderLord · 27/05/2020 11:59

I like Maeve and Charlotte. Hate Eliza and Matilda - make me think of mousy little women.

peperethecat · 27/05/2020 12:30

Eliza Maeve or Maeve Elizabeth

Quizeerascal · 27/05/2020 13:07

Eliza is lovely and a lovely idea to pay tribute to her Grandma. The other names are all nice. Charlotte is quite popular but could also work well as a middle name with Eliza. Maeve may be misspelled sometimes but has a lovely sound to it. I like Tess but feel like it needs a longer name behind it

Eliza Charlotte is gorgeous ❤️

kimlo · 27/05/2020 13:13

Eliza or Tess

Edenember · 27/05/2020 15:08

Eliza is gorgeous and firmly on my list. Treads the line between being instantly recogniseable, everyone knows how to say and spell it, but not too common. beautiful

HouseOfSticks · 27/05/2020 15:28

I like Charlotte and Tess. Eliza is to Hamilton for me personally.

river12 · 28/05/2020 14:14

Eliza is a lovely name
