I have started a new thread as was worried people would miss the update! With a few weeks to go we are still undecided on baby girls name! Big bothers Louis,Jacob and Harry. What are peoples views on the following particularly Martha would it be shortened to Mart??

Martha Rose
Sophia Grace
Matilda Mae
Amelie (Milly) Louise
Evie Grace/Rose

Sophia and Amelie are both beautiful, dont like Martha find it a bit dowdy sorry

Anything but Martha.. sorry it’s an old lady’s name

Martha is the best of your names.

I dislike the name Mae. May, Rose and Grace are filler middle names, so my vote is Martha Louise, but you could go for a different middle name.

I don't like Martha Matilda, but Matha Elizabeth or Martha Rosalind would be nice

You’ve got some gorgeous names there, but please don’t use Rose/Grace/Mae as middle names. You may as well just use “girl” - they really are completely overused filler names.

Martha Rose ❤️

My Martha is Martha Elizabeth
She gets called Marty by close family but only ever Martha by friends . I also call her Marta but I don’t think anyone else does .
She loves her name .
I also know a Martha Emily
I also like
Martha Kate
Martha Jane
Martha Violet
I would also avoid Mae Rose etc . Lovely names but just about everyone we know has one .
All 3 of my children have 2 middle names - all family names .

Martha Rose is lovely. I know a little Martha, whose name is not usually shortened, but occasionally has been Mattie.

ashitghost · 30/01/2022 17:50

I think they’re all a bit meh. Is there nothing less common that you like?

ThrobbingToothacheOfTheMind · 30/01/2022 18:04

I only like Amelie out of those first names and I really don't like any of those middle names.
Elise is nicer than Louise but "Amelie Elise" doesn't go.

I love Martha Rose

My dd is the only girl after three boys (and two of your boys share names with mine). She is the only one with two middle names since there will be no more after her but both are significant (to us) family names. Have a cast through both sides to see what might sit well with Martha and may come with their own stories or history.

Do you mind me asking what your daughter is named l?

Sophia Elizabeth

Martha is the best of the bunch! There’s a young American Olympic weightlifter called Martha Rodgers who goes by Mattie!

PinkSyCo · 02/02/2022 22:32

Your 3 boys have the same names as my 3 grandsons! I personally don’t like the name Martha though. Sophia Rose is a beautiful name and I quite like Matilda (Tilly) too.

IVflytrap · 02/02/2022 22:32

I like Martha and have never heard of Mart as a shortening. Unless you're pronouncing it Marta, which a lot of other languages do, I think Marth is most likely. Mattie as a nickname is quite nice, as someone else mentioned.

For a middle name, how about one of the first names you don't end up using? Martha Sophie, Martha Amelie and Martha Evie all sound nice to me.

Or else a family name or other name that is important to you?

Lalliella · 03/02/2022 08:58

I’m very sorry but I’m a bit nerdy and like patterns so I think you should have a 5 letter name! I love your boys’ names, they’re all traditional strong names. How about Emily?

Lalliella · 03/02/2022 09:01

But apart from the 5 letter thing all your choices are nice except Mae. Mae West! Use May instead!
