As above- Would like any opinions on these names and middle name either Lily or Violet.

Tabitha Lily
Elsie Violet
Eloise / Eloisa Lily
Elodie Lily

A few others that might make the list but I am on the fence -

Elara Violet
Elora Violet
Luna Lily
Sylvie Violet

Also, if I like names like these, what else might I like ? 😅

OH prefers traditional style names and I would probably prefer more unusual names- the first list are the names we both like- but we both like them rather than LOVE them. Maybe a traditional name with good nickname potential!

Thank you.

boys name is already sorted - Jude.

Tabitha or Elizabeth nn Elsie

I have an Eloise and obviously LOVE that name! The only annoying thing was correcting people constantly would write Elouise in her cards but we've mostly got past that now at the age of 3 🙄

Elizabeth Sylvie nn Elsie

Generally I’d avoid all El names because they are so overused, but I think Elizabeth is an honourable exception because it’s so classic and there is such variety of nns - If she wants to be Lisbeth or Buffy later she can be.

Sylvie Elizabeth and Tabitha Elizabeth or Tabitha Violet are also nice.

Don’t like Luna - too close to looney and there are so many similar names Lara/Lena/Leila/Lila/Leah/Lyra

Jemima
Verity
Marianne
Estella
Adela
Genevieve
Tara
Oona

might be others

I have an Elizabeth with nn Elsie and no one has had any problems with that so far in real life! We introduced her as Elsie rather than Elizabeth to make sure the nickname stuck - yet to see if it works at school though! I love Elizabeth but don't really like Lizzie so just wanted to establish the alternative!

From the original list I also like Eloise Lily and Elodie, though would probably go for Violet as mn so there's not too 'ee' endings. From the others you mention I love Sylvie and Clara as well.

I really liked Esther which is traditional and uncommon so maybe a possibility :)

Elizabeth Tabitha. With nickname Eloise.

Cinnamon23 · 11/04/2023 14:05
