I like Juliet or Margot.

jmh740 · 08/05/2022 19:32

I like nova or molly not too keen on the others

HSKAT · 08/05/2022 19:32

Congrats!

Esme Violet
Esme Juliet

Are my fave two

gillybombilly · 08/05/2022 19:33

Margot and Viola are lovely.

Princessoftheuniverse · 08/05/2022 19:33

Juliet for me.

RoseslnTheHospital · 08/05/2022 19:33

Juliet or Margot.

Don't stress too much about the middle name, they are hardly used in all practical circumstances.

cptartapp · 08/05/2022 19:34

Esme Juliet is lovely. Classy.
Really dislike Nova and Viola. Sound a bit silly.
Margot, Molly and Matilda don't flow at all, too many M's with Esme.

Gettissuesgotissues · 08/05/2022 19:35

Violet or Juliet!

teaandtoastwithmarmite · 08/05/2022 19:35

Matilda is my fave

Blackcountryexile · 08/05/2022 19:35

Not so keen on Nova but all your other middle name choices are lovely.
I think Esme Violet or Esme Juliet flow best with Horn

KirstenBlest · 08/05/2022 20:01

Esme Nova - no va. Doesn't go in Spanish. No
Esme Matilda - ok
Esme Viola - nice
Esme Violet - nice
Esme Juliet - nice
Esme Margot - not keen on Margot
Esme Molly - doesn't flow. I prefer Molly to Esme

Molly Juliet is nice, so i'll suggest EsmeJuliet

KirstenBlest · 08/05/2022 20:02

Actually Esme Matilda is a bit too M heavy, so not ok

delshell · 08/05/2022 20:04

Juliet is my favourite.

I also like Violet and Matilda.

Please don't stress yourself though! Esme is lovely and you will have a lovely name for your daughter whichever middle name you choose.

69mumnetter420 · 08/05/2022 20:04

this is such a chavvy name im sorry but do you really want your child going through life with the same name as every other girl in class? i feel like you could definitely come up with something better! apologies if this seems a little harsh but at every parent teacher thing its always the name being screamed at for bad behaviour and at least 10 children will look.

Undertheoldlindentree · 08/05/2022 20:04

I like Esme Juliet or Esme Matilda. Why not research a few and see if it's a positive connection?

cakebytheoceon · 08/05/2022 20:06

Esme is a beautiful name
Love violet as the middle name x

Clevs · 08/05/2022 20:07

Violet or Matilda, in that order.

DrEllie · 08/05/2022 20:10

I have a daughter with middle name Juliet (born in July) and another May (should've been May but born in April, awkward girl). Juliet is an evergreen imho

How incredibly rude

OP - you have some beautiful names in your list

Love Violet as a middle name

allalila · 08/05/2022 20:12

Esme Juliet
Juliet is classier than the other choices I think

allalila · 08/05/2022 20:13

Or Violet

Synchrony · 08/05/2022 20:15

Love it with Nova!

I don't like the M names with Esme because the M sounds together are too much.

Emma8723 · 08/05/2022 20:15

Thank you all for your honesty! All those names have meaning to us in some way but obvs have to flow so thanks for the feedback xx

Juliet

I wanted it for DD and have a pang of regret every time someone else gets to use it. Especially as I know no other little Juliet's but a few others do have DDs name. It's just such a beautiful, classic and romantic name and it works so nicely with Esme.

TwoBigNoisyBoys · 08/05/2022 20:16

Love Violet ❤️ Ignore the rude poster. You have chosen a beautiful name.
