Hi all, I'm down to my final name options and need help deciding! Which one would you pick??

Clementine Olivia
Clementine Hope
Clementine Rose
Clementine Grace

Clementine Ada

Before anyone goes there...I know Clementine is a marmite name but I love it so that's not changing! Xx

All lovely but Olivia and Rose make me think of flavour and food.... So with Clementine that's 2 'foody' names if that makes sense? Not sure if that makes a difference for you!

Surname starts with M

I like all of the one-syllable options. Do any of them have significance to you? I always a middle name is a nice opportunity to honour somebody - grandmother etc.

None of them have significance, to be honest we don't have any names of significance we like or feel right!

I like Clementine Rose best

whatausername · 12/09/2020 21:08

Hope.

Definitely not Olivia and I wouldn't use the current filler names (Rose and Grace) with a beautiful name like Clementine. Detracts from it.

DramaAlpaca · 12/09/2020 21:11

I think I like Clementine Hope best.

finallychangedmyusername · 12/09/2020 21:19

Clementine Hope is so, so lovely. I also love Clementine Olivia.

Clementine Olivia Hope would be amazing. A lot of name, but amazing!

I'd stay away from Rose and Grace as they are so, so common in the middle spot. Plus Clementine Rose doesn't work as it's too fruit/flower/colours.

DipSwimSwoosh · 12/09/2020 21:49

I like it. I would choose Rose first. Olivia second. I don't really like the other middle names.

Viletta · 12/09/2020 21:51

Clementine Grace or Clementine Rose, I think both sound smoother

wowfudge · 12/09/2020 21:53

I like Hope - especially in the current climate.

Frankley · 12/09/2020 22:06

Clementine Hope, hope is what is needed at present. Very appropriate and she will be interested to know why when she's older.

LarkDescending · 13/09/2020 00:48

Clementine Hope is lovely.

Ponchy · 13/09/2020 00:52

No to Ada just to avoid CAM. I'd go for Grace or Rose.

Torvean32 · 13/09/2020 00:58

I'd say Clementine Hope.

Linnet · 13/09/2020 01:44

Clementine Olivia

peachypetals · 13/09/2020 03:55

Clementine Pearl! Sorry I know that’s not on your list but I think one syllable is best, Grace and Rose are so overdone now. Smile

TomBradysLeftKneecap · 13/09/2020 04:08

Hope but also go with teen not tyne.

Am I missing something? Why should CAM be avoided?

Clementine Ada. Fantastic name!

Stargazer87 · 13/09/2020 16:23

So I think it's down to Olivia, Hope or Ada...

FizzingWhizzbee123 · 13/09/2020 21:08

Clementine Hope

GoldenPlover · 13/09/2020 21:12

Clementine Olivia is my favourite, although I like the pp suggestion of Clementine Olivia Hope too!

Stargazer87 · 13/09/2020 22:10

Clementine Olivia Hope is a nice one but then our surname is also 3 syllables so it would be a bit of a mouthful!

OP posts:
twirlywooly · 13/09/2020 23:01

I would go either Ada or Hope if you have three syllable surname the. as Olivia sounds then too many syllables/wordy
