I’m due my daughter in 5 weeks, I’m wanting to give her the same middle name as me but for 1 reason I can’t give her Louise. What do you think of Lou but spelled Lue? Is it strange? Thank you 😊

I think it is strange.

PrimroseWharf · 03/08/2022 20:20

Have you considered Lulu? Or Louisa? Maybe even Luna? I agree Lue is a bit odd really

CLC22 · 03/08/2022 20:22

i thought so just thought I’d get opinions thank you 😊 & I liked Luna but a lot of people seem to be calling their pets Luna x

Bit odd - but I love Luna and don't associate it as a pets name.

KangarooKenny · 03/08/2022 21:22

Luisa.
Louisa.

Leggingslife · 03/08/2022 21:22

Luna is better.

Lue is a bit odd. Louisa or Eloise?

tillytoodles1 · 03/08/2022 21:25

I wouldn't pick Luna as I know too many pets with that name. Why can't you use Louise?

buttergloss · 03/08/2022 21:29

My daughters middle name is Lou and spelt that way

FlissyPaps · 03/08/2022 21:56

If you can’t for for Louise why not:

Louisa
Louella
Louanne
Eloise
Talulah

LizzieSiddal · 03/08/2022 21:58

Why can’t you just call her Louise?

emmaliz · 03/08/2022 22:01

What about Lucia?

CLC22 · 03/08/2022 22:13

@LizzieSiddal there is a girl from my younger days who didn’t like me with the name Louise but also the surname of my partner (no relation to him) and thank you for all the suggestions 😊

How about Lula?

LizzieSiddal · 03/08/2022 22:18

Ahh ok, that makes sense. Hope you find a nice replacement.

How about Luella ?

Luredbyapomegranate · 14/08/2022 12:23

It’s very strange.

How about Luella ?

Sandysandwich · 14/08/2022 12:40

I would just spell it Lou its fine like that

ladygindiva · 14/08/2022 12:48

I really like Louella/Louella
Also Lowenna , which is a slightly popular name here in Cornwall.

ladygindiva · 14/08/2022 12:49

Also Eloise or Lois ?
