Can't decide if timeless and classic or a bit too twee (or whether rose just too popular for a middle name)?

Help please!

No I don’t think Alice Iris works sadly, too many repeated sounds.

Love Iris though, and I think you’d just about get away with Iris Alice.

Alice Joy
Alice Camille
Alice Skye
Alice Violeta

Absolutely love it!

Love Alice!!

sooooo over rose as a middle name. Around half my female friends seem to have that middle name

It’s lovely! I don’t think you have to pick something more daring. Rose is very popular as a middle name, but it’s because it’s really nice. I do quite like Alice Marigold though…

Love Alice 💕
It's elegant, underused and timeless.
I would go for a longer middle name:

Alice Elizabeth
Alice Catherine
Alice Isabella
Alice Charlotte

Congratulations xx

Thank you everyone!
Mixed reviews so I'm still undecided 🤷‍♀️

It is very popular and timeless, but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. Also, although I've known lots of people with Rose as a middle name, I don't think I've ever known an Alice Rose. It may be a combination that isn't as much used as you think.

If you did want to make one of the names a bit more unusual, my favourite name in the whole "Rose family" is Rosalie. How do you fee about Alice Rosalie?

@PurpleAirGuitar thank you Smile

I do like Rosalie but there is a slightly awkward family connection!

Rosaline is nice though

Alice and Rose are both nice names but together I just don’t think they flow too well, not sure why but Alice Rosa does sound better and a tad more interesting.

Love Iris though! And I don’t personally think Marigold is too out there though I do prefer Iris overall @doggyadvicepls

How about:
Iris Albertine (Albertine is a type of rose) 🌹
