Which middle name? Advice please!!

[indecisive123]

First name is already picked, it will be Lily. I’m not bothered about popularity and I’m already 100% set on that.

The middle names I’m considering are:

Lily Charlotte
Lily Catherine
Lily Francesca
Lily Madeleine
Lily Scarlet

Opinions on these please- rank them if you want! Any other middle name suggestions are welcome. Thanks :)

Francesca

I like Lily Madeleine

Francesca or Charlotte

All such pretty names. Lily Charlotte is my favourite though. Congratulations on your little girl

I like Francesca or Charlotte. Other ideas

Lily Amanda
Lily Cordelia
Lily Roxanna
Lily Sophia

Lily Natalia
Lily Adeline

Lily Madeleine is beautiful.

Any of those except Scarlett

All lovely except Lily Scarlet which makes me think of the scarlet lily beetle:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarlet_lily_beetle

But generally I think it’s best to avoid colour, flower or plant names alongside a noun such as Lily. E.g. Lily Violet, Lily Rosa, Lily Rosemary.

I like Lily Francesca but then Lily pairs very well with a lot of names so you can’t go too far wrong I don’t think.

Lily Evangeline is pretty from another poster’s suggestions.

I would avoid using Rose or Grace etc only because they are very boring options imo.

How about Lily Jean?

All lovely apart from Scarlet.
My favourite is Lily Catherine

My suggestions for you:

Lily Caroline
Lily Genevieve
Lily Elizabeth
Lily Olivia
Lily Vivienne
Lily Evangeline
Lily Emmeline
Lily Ariadne
Lily Victoria
Lily Elizabeth
Lily Eleanor
Lily Clementine
Lily Margaret
Lily Jessica
Lily Sophia

Lily Charlotte is nice

Lily Alexandra
Lily Annabel
Lily Beatrice
Lily Catherine
Lily Caroline
Lily Florence
Lily Josephine
Lily Margaret
Lily Matilda
Lily Rebecca
Lily Susannah
Lily Victoria

Scarlet or Madeline. None of the others go, especially Francesca.

There's an actor called Evangeline Lily

Or Billy Jean?

Charlotte, Catherine or Francesca

Catherine or Francesca. Lovely!

I think you want something substantial, grown up and elegant to balance Lily, which is sweet but delicate and young

Lily Charlotte - 3
Lily Catherine - 4
Lily Francesca - 1
Lily Madeleine - 2
Lily Scarlet - No (sounds like a footballer’s kid)

Lily Madeline
