Juliette Rose is my favourite.
Eloise Primrose second.
Penelope Rose and Imogen Rose joint third.

I used to love Isobel but feel it's been overdone at this point. Same for Emilia.

Mumofgirls2017 · 27/07/2022 17:09

Penelope, Eloise or Juliet (prefer that spelling)

KirstenBlest · 27/07/2022 17:44

Rose is very popular as a middle name and I'm not keen on Primrose. Middle names hardly ever get used, unless the first name is very popular
Juliet is so much nicer than Juliette

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 27/07/2022 17:50

Juliet Primrose should be an option, that's lovely.

As a pp mentioned, Rose as a middle name is SO overdone now. Primrose changes it up a bit.

KirstenBlest · 27/07/2022 17:50

Eloise will be Ellie. Penelope will be Penny. Imogen will be Immy, Isobel will be Izzy/Issy and Juliette will be Jules/Julie.

I'd go with Rose Middlename or use a different form of Rose as a middle name. Rosalind is very pretty.

Juliette Rose

Penelope Rose or Juliet Primrose.
Or Isobel Primrose - and this is my preferred spelling of Isobel!

Huntswomanonthemove · 27/07/2022 19:18

Isobel first, then Juliet

DramaAlpaca · 27/07/2022 22:55

Any of those first names are beautiful followed by Rose, apart from Eloise which doesn't flow.

I agree with others that Juliet is nicer, but OP might want the Juliette pronunciation with the stress on the last syllable.

I'm sorry, I just don't like Primrose. That 'prim' bit bothers me, and it doesn't sound strong like Rose does.

mrsfoof · 27/07/2022 23:00

Imogen Rose is beautiful

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 27/07/2022 23:01

Emilia Rose

Fivebeanchilli · 27/07/2022 23:05

Penelope Rose - I'm not a Penelope fan at all
Emilia Primrose - gorgeous
Juliette Rose - I really like Juliet but not so keen on the ette ending. I would go for Juliet Primrose
Imogen Rose - Imogen is lovely. Rose is dull but it has meaning for you but it would still put me off. I think you could use Imogen Primrose desire the repeated im sounds
Eloise Primrose - don't like
Isobel Primrose (not sure what spelling variation - too common

Emilia, Juliet and Imogen are beautiful.

Crunchymum · 28/07/2022 20:29

Why not just use Rose? It's a beautiful, elegant and classic name.

Luredbyapomegranate · 28/07/2022 23:56

Juliet Rose
I don’t think there’s any point spelling it Juliette, no one is going to say it with a French intonation

or otherwise Imogen Rose

Penelope is nice but she’ll end up Penny, Emilia and Isobel (all variations) done to death, and Eloise will end up one of a zillion Ellies

I think Primrose might just be the world’s most insipid name, so if you want to honour a strong woman called Rose, I’d stick to that - or Rosanna, Rosamund and Rosemary are all nice variations and less common middle names

KirstenBlest · 29/07/2022 08:30

@Luredbyapomegranate , I know a Juliette and everyone says it as Julie Ette. She gets called Julie a lot.

Cloud16 · 29/07/2022 16:08

I like Penelope or Imogen.

Penny is a sweet nn, so is Immy imo.
