Middle name for Poppy

[Moonchild5]

Gave birth on Saturday & named my little girl Poppy. I wasn’t going to give her a middle name but my gran thinks I’ll regret it & she hates the fact she doesn’t have a middle name. I don’t want to give her one for the sake of it but I liked Arabella as a name originally & means “answered prayer” & we had been trying for a year & half & was just about to go down the IVF route & she’s also a rainbow baby we had a miscarriage 2 months after trying. Poppy Arabella Chisholm? How does that sound? My grans name is Jeanette so I thought of Poppy Jean. I’m open to suggestions. My sister suggested Peach & liked blossom. I like cute frilly nature names & classic traditional names.

I like flower/plant names. Willow and Lavender would be my girl names if I’d needed them.

DS would’ve been called Sunshine if he’d been a girl.

Poppy peach is silly. Poppy Jean would be my vote. Live poppy

Yes definitely after your grandmother Jean or Jeanette.

Jeanette is actually a really lovely name and it'll mean the world to them both to be connected like that

My DC have middle names relating to grandparents

You are of course allowed more than one middle name so Jeanette and another one you like the sound of

Peach is a bit daft

Rosebud is cute

Poppy Grace
Also love Poppy Jean

Or

Poppy ...

Skye
Lucinda
Ivy
Quinn
Nicole
Myla
Violet

Love Poppy Jean

Yeah I’m not going with peach as cutesy as it sounds I like Poppy blossom but doesn’t go with surname. My gran said Poppy Jean reminds her of the song Billie Jean & can’t take it seriously. I liked the idea of something to do with a rainbow or sunshine something bright & happy I thought of Poppy Sol(meaning sun) don’t know if that’s silly though but something like that.

Poppy jean is nice PJ could be a nickname.

Poppy Rose

Poppy Arabella Chisholm is very smart and the best of your listed suggestions.
Poppy is already a flower/nature name and is bright in thought so I would be choosing a classic, traditional second name.

Does Granny Jeanette have a second name?
That could be suitable too. What is her mother's name?

Ideas ..
Poppy Elspeth
Poppy Allegra
Poppy Catherine
Poppy Matilda
Poppy Elizabeth
Poppy Eleanor

Her name was Christina which is nice but would want someone’s name I was close with. My gran helped raise me etc.

I would say Jean or something like that- one syllable.

Poppy Jean is lovely

Poppy Jeanette would be lovely.

Poppy Arabella Jean would be lovely too if you decided to use two middle names.

Suggestions:
Poppy Elizabeth
Poppy Eloise
Poppy Christiana

I think Poppy Jeanette sounds nicer than Poppy Jean, Poppy Arabella has a lovely ring to it.

Just my opinion, it flows nicer with a longer middle name
Poppy Elizabeth
Catherine
Jessica
Emeline

Poppy Arabella is stunning!! Sweet, sassy and elegant all together.
Would you consider a hyphenated middle? Poppy Arabella-Jean would be amazing 😍
My rainbow girl is Eliana, meaning God has answered. Poppy Eliana? (Obvs I'm biased)

My sister and I have our grandmothers’ names as middle names. Id go with Poppy Jeanette. It’s nice and better going with a name for the sake of it.

My niece is called Poppy Eugenie which is nice xx

I didn’t think poppy Jeanette sounded great does it go okay? I obsess over syllable count etc ever since I looked up names when pregnant so would be 2-2-2 which isn’t meant to sound great

Poppy Jeanette is lovely and 2-2-2 sounds good to me. It's also meaningful which is nicer than a random middle name in many ways. I know a Poppy Tallulah which I think is cute.

Congratulations! Another vote for Poppy Jean from me.

Alternatively, Poppy Iris? Iris means rainbow in Greek.

Agree with pp suggestion Poppy Arabella-Jean

Poppy Arabella is lovely. Other suggestions

poppy juliet
poppy matilda
poppy sienna
poppy delilah
poppy maeve
poppy skye
poppy eloise
Poppy jemima
poppy olivia
poppy quinn
poppy alice
poppy annabelle
poppy aurora

Congratulations! Poppy is lovely.
Poppy Rose/Willow/Blossom/Iris etc is too flowery
Poppy Jeanette or Poppy Arabella are nice but there was an Arabella-Poppy in the news not that long ago.
Poppy Jean now reminds me of Billie Jean.

Arabella-Jean as a middle name is too much and hyphens aren't great.
I'd go with Poppy Jeanette, or Poppy Jeannette (Jeanne-ette as opposed to Jean-ette)
