Eve?

[blueskyeve]

As a middle name for Ottilie? I have a 3 syllable surname.

I’m sorry but I have to agree with the posters who feel Ottilie is an ugly sounding name. Shortened to Ott or Otz doesn’t improve it either.
Eve is lovely as is Eva. Or if you want a fancier version, Yvette.
Do come back and tell us what you finally decide on. Is baby due soon?

Isn't Ottilie a town in West Yorkshire?

I love Eve. I had an Aunty Eve ( though pronounced Ev - the old way !), she was an amazing lady, so lovely connotations for me. She was Evelyn, of course.
Ottilie is too trendy for me ( like Aurelia, Arabella, etc )
If you and your dh love it though, you should have it.
I think Ottilie Eve is fine - you're not saying the names together anyway, and it's lovely to honour a family member.

The Ottilie I know is shortened to Lottie by her most people and the Oaty by her brother.

Even of it doesnt quite flow with eve, I think it does with Evelyn, as long as you say it the Ehv, a, lyn way so the E of Otillie and the E of Evelyn are prounounced differently

Thank you all for your opinions. Still unsure what to do. I still like Ottilie, but am really considering not using it. What about Imogen? Imogen Eve?

Baby due October @Cindie943811A

Imogen Eve is lovely, I think it flows well especially as you said you have a 3 syllable surname

Love Imogen Eve 👌🏼

Imogen Eve is beautiful.
Classic, timeless.

I love the names Ottilie and Imogen. You have great taste
i wouldn't worry about a nickname flowing, you don't often use full name, it's much better to pick a middle name you like. Eve is lovely
