Francesca?

What do people think? 32 weeks pregnant with DD. Middle name would be Elizabeth so Francesca Elizabeth? Really struggling with girls names that DH and I agree on. Our favourite we cant have because of our surname.

What is your favourite and why can't you use it?

What about Frances Elizabeth if Francesca is out?

Our favourite was Robin but it's a real sod with our surname (starts with Ro...)

We were thinking of having Frances Elizabeth as middle names as they have a significance in our families which we would like to include ideally, but we don't really like either enough as a first name. That's why I thought i was on to a real winner with Francesca. But no, bloody DH

I like Jospehine.

Francine.

DD middle name. We were worried about Fran/Frannie as nn so swerved it as a first name.

Thanks. I thought the surname might be White and that you liked Isla.
Robin is a boy's name - I'd spell it Robyn, and it depends on the surname.
Robyn Rowlands or Robyn Rossiter is ok

So long as surname not Robinson, I think it’s fine. Robin is the male version though, it’s Robyn usually for a girl.

MikeUniformMike · 25/10/2020 08:10

Robyn Robinson is fine, but Robin Roberts or Robbins not so good

MikeUniformMike · 25/10/2020 08:17

Just use Robin, if you love it.

FippertyGibbett · 25/10/2020 08:21

I don’t see the problem with Robyn Robinson if you like it.

Elizabeth Frances? I can tell you from experience it's a great name.
