LOVE Jasime Eliza!

Sorry, Jasmine Eliza!

I like Jasmine but I also like Scarlett.

Not keen on Imogen and of your middle names only like Eliza.

So Jasmine Eliza or Scarlett Eliza and actually I think Scarlett Eliza sounds better.

Imogen.

Zillamop · 14/03/2022 22:49

I think Esme works well as middle name for Imogen. Jasmine Ada is also good.

PoxyAndIKnowIt · 14/03/2022 23:35

Jasmine Eliza gets my vote.

Fivebeanchilli · 15/03/2022 07:17

I much prefer Imogen.

DogsAndGin · 15/03/2022 21:00

Imogen May

WeasilyPleased · 15/03/2022 22:06

I like Jasmine Eliza.

Caramelcap · 16/03/2022 08:12

Definitely Jasmine, it was on my girls list 😊

I like Jasmine Ada (Ida was also on my list)

My best friend just called her baby Imogen though.. both are nice 😊

Jasmine by a country mile. It's also a name used in many cultures so is more international. Jasmine is in fact a classic name and just has more beauty and spirit to me.

I also think of Imogen as more of a passive, weak name. Its sounds more childish. Jasmine I can imagine on a girl or woman of any age.

From this list you can see Jasmine is used in the UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, Mexico, Italy, Germany, Japan and India and by people with a wide variety of backgrounds.

As Yasmin/Yasmeen it's used in Arabic speaking countries, Persia, India and many other areas of the world.

I think the opposite: Imogen to me is a strong grownup name but works for a child too. It’s not overly prissy or frilly.

Jasmine’s ok but a bit twee and also quite dated.

Honey2 · 16/03/2022 12:14

@TatianaBis I tend to agree…. In fact I think I am now going off Jasmine! Thanks for all the responses though.

Now have to decide between Imogen (my fab) and Heidi (husbands fav)!

I like both
Always like Imogen so I would pick that but both are pretty.

Violetandpurple · 16/03/2022 13:10

Not keen on Scarlett at all. Never been a name I have liked.

Cas112 · 16/03/2022 13:41

Imogen
