Which middle name for Claire?

[Donnaj28]

Claire Elise
Claire Elaine
Claire Louise
Claire Maureen

Elise or Louise

Please don't call your baby 'Claire", it's a really shit 70s name, from someone who was there.
Plus I've been a teacher for over 20 years and have only ever taught 1 Claire.
Don't do it!

Claire is really beautiful but is considered a bit 70's/80's, so I'd pick a middle name that isn't also dated. Elise is the best of your list, but Louisa would sound better than Louise, Elena better than Elaine, Madeleine better than Maureen etc.

Claire Louise

Claire Louise

I think Claire is a nice name. I secretly admire the Claire who was in my class at school, she was the only Claire too. I would choose Elise.

Claire Louise.
And it's a beautiful name!

I love the name Claire!

I like Claire Louise best (Elise is nice, but somehow doesn’t work with Claire)

Claire Elise is lovely.

(Claire was quite common where I live, it’s my middle name too)

Elise love that name

I’m a Clare, and would have loved Clare Elise. 70’s baby, no i. DH calls me Clara. Elise makes it more modern.

Neither of the names that start with a vowel.
'Elise' particularly sounds like Claire Release to my ears.

Claire is such a lovely name. I like Claire Louise.

I know a Claire Louise and a Claire Marie.

Out of your options I would go for Claire Elise.

I know three Claires. They all have middle name Louise.

Claire Estelle
Claire Elizabeth
Claire Louise

I know of 6 locally - aged between 25 - 70

I like Claire Louise. I met a baby Nicole a while ago - so refreshing.

Refreshing to see older types of names coming back in I mean.

Please not Claire Louise! I’m 36 and it’s the exact name of 6 women my age that I know right now, and loads more from the past. Nearly everyone in the 80s had the middle name Louise! Claire Elise is the best of your suggestions. Claire Elizabeth which is suggested upthread is gorgeous.

Claire Louise

I know 4 Clare Louise’s, Clare is an outdated name, wouldn’t be my choice but if you have family reasons to use it then I’d say Clare Elise

Claire Louise was a really, really popular name with girls at my school (born in the 80s).

Oh I like Claire! Bring it back I say. I'd go with a more modern middle name. Claire Louisa as suggested above is lovely.
