They all go beautifully. If you don’t have any other way to pick, I’d consider whether you like Emmie and Ellie as ways others may shorten the names and go with Clara if you don’t.

Love them all, lovely names.

Duplobuilder · 20/02/2023 13:39

Love Clara, closely followed by Elise

NewlyDiabeticMum · 20/02/2023 13:44

Love Elise and Clara. I know one of each of those!

Although Clara Elise also works well.

Not a fan of Emmeline and the only one I know hates her names and shortens it to Emma.

I love Clara, it goes really nicely with Rupert. Elise I'm not keen of as there's too many varying spellings/similar names with that. I do like Emmeline as well. But Clara is my favourite.

Clara

Clara is really lovely. I also like Emmeline and know one wi

shopmyfeelings · 20/02/2023 16:58

... who uses Emme for short.

Not so keen on Elise, it's nice but not as lovely as the other two.

Clara

Emmeline

ColdHandsHotHead · 20/02/2023 18:20

I would choose Clara, since it's German (I think) in origin and so is Rupert.

KirstenBlest · 20/02/2023 19:46

Not keen on any of them, but would pick Emmeline.
Clara is ok said as Claira but that seems to be less popular.
Elise is yet another Ellie and too close too Elsie
Emmeline is ok but a bit long.

Twoinapod · 20/02/2023 21:14

Clara followed by Elise

LolaSmiles · 20/02/2023 21:15

All three are lovely names. Elise is my favourite from the list.

xprincessxjanetx · 21/02/2023 00:32

I think Emmeline goes best with Rupert

mathanxiety · 21/02/2023 00:39

Emmeline goes best with Rupert imo.

BreviloquentBastard · 21/02/2023 00:39

Clara. Emmeline is too fussy and Elise doesn't go as well with Rupert.

LulooLemon · 21/02/2023 01:11

Clara

NoDairyNoProblem · 21/02/2023 01:39

Rupert and Clara sound polite and distinguished.
Rupert and Elsie are sweet and lovely.
Emmeline is too much with Rupert.

Rupert and Clara

user1492757084 · 21/02/2023 02:14

Emma or Claire.
They are as grown up and handsome as Rupert.

octoberfarm · 21/02/2023 03:15

Clara and Rupert go beautifully! Congratulations!

RosaBonheur · 21/02/2023 04:48

Clara!

But they are all lovely.
