I like Matilda Jane a lot.

DoucheCanoe · 04/06/2021 19:12

Matilda M is a very cool name!

ab21 · 04/06/2021 19:14

In terms of the way it sounds as a first name with your surname, I think Penelope flows the best although I'm not a big fan of Penny. I like Matilda as a stand-alone name but not so sure if the alliteration with your surname.

(Just reflecting on my hypocrisy as my second son's name doesn't flow that well with our surname either!).

Raindropumbrella · 04/06/2021 19:16

Penelope

DotDotDotDotDot · 04/06/2021 19:24

I’d choose Elowen definitely. I’ve only recently discovered this name but think it’s absolutely gorgeous. I also like Florence and Matilda but obviously they’re much more popular, in case that bothers you. I’m less keen on the other 3 but still a nice list. Good luck.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 04/06/2021 20:51

Elowen is lovely However I wouldn’t put
Elowen Alice Morris with an M together as a full name. None of the even gel. Saying it my head it’s coming out as
Elwowen Awis Mollis. Blush
Elowen Matilda Morris. Elowen Jane Morris.
would be divine
I don’t like Ophelia but Ophelia Maeve just rolls off the tongue.
Florence is a nice enough name.
I think I like the vibe rather than the actual sound.
Again With Florence Morris I’m getting all tongue tied Flolence Monnis.
I can’t fault Matilda Jane Morris.
I know it’s not one of your combos but Penelope Jane Morris is nice.

partyatthepalace · 04/06/2021 21:53

Ophelia Maeve - goes best with your surname and a lovely name
Lucienne -is my favourite name. I wouldn’t use Marie though

Matilda M is too cutesy a combo, Florence too much of a tongue twister, and while I like Elowen and Penelope she’d end up Ellie or Penny which is dull especially with your surname.

SoapboxFox · 04/06/2021 21:54

I like Lucienne Marie best Smile

DramaAlpaca · 04/06/2021 21:55

I like either Florence, Penelope or Matilda, all with the middle name Jane.

FindingMeno · 04/06/2021 21:56

I like them all.
Wasn't sure on Penelope Wren, then I thought of Penny Wren ( like Jenny Wren) and its adorable.

BMag · 04/06/2021 21:57

Ophelia is a lovely name, it’s actually my friend’s DD’s name! I’ve always liked it.

Elowen is a nice one too, but as a mother of a child called Anwen, be prepared for people to misspell it, mishear it and mispronounce it on the daily! Wink

Playdoughcaterpillar · 04/06/2021 22:01

Not the last 2. All the others are lovely

AuntieStella · 04/06/2021 22:05

I'd swap around a bit and go for Penelope Jane or Penelope Maeve

ForkedIt · 04/06/2021 22:09

Didn’t read that right and thought your surname was Mohnson Grin don’t worry, I’ve now cracked the code Wink

Realitea · 04/06/2021 22:12

Penelope wren is gorgeous! I love it

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 04/06/2021 23:16

Mohnson. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Tillygetsit · 04/06/2021 23:18

Matilda Jane. Nice!

MrsDoctorDear · 04/06/2021 23:34

Matilda M is lovely. You don't say all 3 names together after birth announcement so just practice first name and surname together.
Florence M wouldn't work.

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 04/06/2021 23:37

My fave of your name choices is the beautiful Ophelia. Elowen is okay but I'm not keen on Penelope (too trendy currently) and Lucienne which sounds masculine to me. I also think Florence doesn't work well with your surname (repeated short "o" sound). However if not Ophelia, I'd be very tempted to go for Matilda - the alliteration with the surname sounds great imo.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 04/06/2021 23:40

Ophelia Maeve M— hate, most try-hard / middle class name
Florence Jane M—doesn’t sound great with surname
Penelope Wren M— love!!
Matilda Jane M— love’s
Lucienne Marie M—not keen, bit of a mouthful
Elowen Alice M— doesn’t flow well

i love elowen and matilda , they of all of them are my two favs

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 04/06/2021 23:51

Elowen Is wonderful!
All the others are great names but personally I wouldn’t choose Matilda or Florence as I don’t think they flow with your surname.

Rosehassometoes · 04/06/2021 23:54

Ophelia Maeve M—
Florence Jane M—
Penelope Wren M—
Matilda Jane M—

These 4 are beautiful. 1 or 4 at a push.

Moonlaserbearwolf · 04/06/2021 23:57

Florence Morris just doesn’t sound great.
The others are all fine.
