What do you think of Amelia- Rose, Tabitha or Matilda (tilly)

[mummyloveslucy]

Just wondering what you all thought of Amelia Rose (millie) or Tabitha or Matilda (tilly). We like them all really. We want somthing classy and traditional.

Matilda and Amelia are quite popular where I am. Dont know any Tabitha's. Love all three names

I like them all I'm not much help, sorry!

My daughter is called Tilly Amelia, I love it and have never had any regrets, havnt met another Tilly where we live, only an elderly lady! We sometimes call her Tilly-Milly.Hope the name doesnt get too popular!Good luck with choosing.

I love Tabitha, and 'Mattie' and 'Tilly' but Matilda less so.

Not too keen on Tabitha - love Amelia and Matilda/Tilly but they seem to be getting quite popular.

Like them all, but like Matilda (Tilly) best.

Amelia-Rose is brilliant. I like Matilda but it looks like there'll be about 8 per class at this rate, it's a very popular name. I would go wtih Amelia-Rose, it think it's a lovely name.

Don't like hyphenated names - all a bit bobby sue! IYSWIM!

Like the other 2 though - if DS was a girl he would have been Matilda!

Tabitha my favourite - know a Tabitha who is called Tab by her friends and Batty by her family.

Matilda also lovely.

I like Amelia also but for some reason much prefer the spelling Emilia.

Watch out for Milly: there are 3 in dd's reception class. It spoils a name if you have to go through life being Milly B, or Milly C, or Milly D, instead of just your name.

Like them all. Matilda is my favourite. Like Amelia and Rose as first and second names but like Twinkie think both is very Bobby Sue!

Oh, but not Amelia-Rose though. Sounds like a Mills & Boon heroine.

Agree that double barrelled first names are either (a) pretentious or (b) hillbilly

We would have named dd Amelia Rose had it not meant an unfortunate set of initials and shortening with our surname (went for Philippa Rose instead, known as Pippa).

I am one of the other two (the less common one ) and love having it as a name, although people mis-spelling it is annoying (mine has one letter different to your version).

All the names are nice (though my preference woudl be to avoid double barrelled names), but there are thousands of Tillys and Millies around at the moment.

absolutely love tabitha, wanted it for dd but dh not so keen unfortunately.

my dd is Tabitha and nicknamed Tabi.

Goes without saying I love it.

we also have a kitten called Tilly...

ah, good girl, Hatrick!

all gorgeous
like tabitha best

All nice names - I like Matilda Rose shortened to Mattie personally.

dd is nearly 6, and just after she was born the remake of Bewitched came out and I was terrified it'd become a really popular name but fortunately hasn't, as yet.

she looked like a Tabitha from the second she was born..

I love them all but especially Amelia-Rose, im abit biased tho' as i have an Elana-Rose

My 7 month-old DD is Tabitha
She is called Tabby by her grandma - but we tend to call her Tabs (unplanned, just what happened!).
Love both Amelia and Matilda too, but really like that Tabitha seems a lot less common (at least for now!)
