June Maureen or April Maureen

[Donnaj28]

heyy, which combination do you like the most? Im using the name Maureen after my mom. I like June and April both. What do you think?

I like June better.

I think they are both lovely. Perhaps a slight preference for June

I prefer June too

June Maureen sounds like an 80 year old. April is much better.

April. June Maureen is just too old lady for me. April Maureen is a bit quirky. Like it.

April Maureen as June Maureen sounds like an elderly lady. I really like the name Maureen! Lovely to honour your mom.

Lovely to give her your mums name as a middle. Of your first name choices, I prefer April, I think (June seems slightly dated to me, although I like the similar Jane).

If you are going for month names though, I definitely like May as a first name best - very classic. And May Maureen actually sounds pretty cool - the double M gives her some cute nn options - like Mamie ("may - mee") or Mimi.

June Maureen sounds really old

I really like the name April. Also agree with pp about May. Not so keen on June though.

Averil?

"It's June, dad"

What do you mean?😅

I dislike both, but April is better. June sounds very old lady. How about Juno?

Agree with pp June Maureen makes them sound about 90 years old. I marginally prefer April.

Does it not depend on when she is born?

I have an Aunty May whose birthday is in January and it's really confusing.

Oh god not April. I've known two and both had to put up with Ape jokes.

I love the name April

I used to work with a lady called May who had daughters called April and June. It was her poor son, September, we all felt sorry for

Does it not depend on when she is born? I have an Aunty May whose birthday is in January and it's really confusing.

I agree that most April's are likely to have been born in April; but June likely became a popular name as much because of the popularity (at the time) of the similar sounding Joan/Jane, as because it's also a month name.

May is completely different - it became popular centuries ago because it's both a flower name (same as Lily, Rose etc) as well as a popular nn for Mary and Margaret, so it wouldn't be odd for a girl called May to be born in a different month.

"It's June, dad"

Maybe she'll grow up to develop an obsessive liking for parsnip jam, free pens and receiving other people's post

Agree that June Maureen sounds so old. I wouldn't choose that.

Our next door and next but one neighbours are called Maureen & June, neither will see 70 again! And I worked with an April who must be about 55-60 now - have the names come round into fashion again?

I like the name Avril less keen on April and June I view as an elderly name, same as Maureen. Avril Maureen is OK.

I think I prefer April with Maureen, however June is less popular which I do like in a name.
