Middle name for Esther

31 replies

Expecting second dd soon. We've decided on the name Esther but can't agree on a middle name. I like Beatrix (too popular?) and Sidonie. Husband unsure on both.
Any ideas?

Love Beatrix. It goes well with Esther. Sidonie les so because of the S at the beginning.

Marie was the first name that popped into my head.

No idea why.

Esther is lovely.
I like Esther Ruth or Esther Grace.

My God daughter is Esther Louise.

Esther Beatrix sounds good to me

Weird, Marie was first to my mind too!

How many syllables are in your last name, and what is the initial? Are you looking for a smooth flow, or a dynamic syncopated bounce? And it is wise to avoid any unintentional initial combos.
Esther Joy is lovely, as a previous poster said.

Congratulations, OP!

Rose.

Probably be because I know two sisters, eldest is Esther, youngest is Rose.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 22/08/2020 22:44

Esther Beatrix is good.
I don’t like Esther Sidonie. There are too many S sounds. You’d sound like a bloody snake saying it. Plus the names have totally different vibes.

Thanks for all these suggestions. I'm now even happier with Beatrix and determined to convince OH! :)

But will put a few others into the mix too. Thanks!

Esther Beatrix is good.

I also like Esther Florence, and I'll throw in Esther Jean as a short middle name suggestion too.

Mary

Hazel! Great choice on Esther. We have one in our house.

Esther Nerine

pinkyredrose · 23/08/2020 09:33

Does she need a middle name?

whatausername · 24/08/2020 10:19

Esther Jean makes me think of oestrogen even though the 'eh' and 'ea' sounds are swapped round in oestrogen. 🤔
