Baby girl names - opinions please to compliment Matilda

[justkeepswimming2701]

Hi,

We already have a daughter called Matilda Olive and we are expecting our second daughter. Which name do you prefer? Or if you already have a Matilda and can offer an alternative, I’d love to hear some!

Phoebe Anna
Phoebe Isabella

Esme Anna
Esme Isabelle

Thank you!

Isolde (Is-ol-da from the medieval legend).
Lilac
Emma
Ettie
Enela
Tulah
Perdie
Violet (Lottie)
Charlotte
Rosemary
Rebekah

Phoebe Isabella

Phoebe/Esme Anna sounds too much like Phoebeana/Esmeana

Alice Phoebe

Esme Isabelle gets my vote! I like all your choices, but Esme is my favourite of your two first names.

Other names that I’ve heard with Matilda / go nicely with Matilda imo -

Tabitha
Alice
Amelia
Florence

Thea

Esme will always get the esmay/esmee pronunciation issues if that bothers you.

out of the two Phoebe Isabella sounds better but I prefer pp suggestion of Alice.

Alice Isabella

I’m not sure that either complements Matilda. But I’d go for Phoebe Isabella of the four.

Margot
Hera
Circe
Hester
Jocasta
Vivian

Phoebe isabella is cute.

I know sisters Matilda and Felicity. Adorable 😍

Matilda & Esme ❤️
Not sure that either choice of middle name flows very well, but still nice names individually.

I’m interested in this as we also have a Matilda and are expecting our second girl. Clearly we have similar tastes, as we are likely to go with either Isobel or Isabella for DD2.

Of your choices I like Phoebe best. Esme has too many pronunciation issues for me. Other names I/we have considered to go with Matilda are Alice (my fave but DH not a fan sadly), Lara, Jessica, Abigail. I also like Rosa and Anna.

Phoebe is lovely and also like with Matilda:
Madeline
Mabeline
Ettie
Ottilie
Alana

I’d go phoebe and either middles are nice.

Matilda and

Phoebe Isabella is lovely 😊 that name gets my vote!

Matilda and Tabitha

Phoebe Isabella

We have a Matilda and our shortlist included:
Phoebe
Eliza
Harriet
Scarlet
Madeline
Georgina
Francesca

Phoebe Isabella is the best in your list imo.

All work well imo but Phoebe Isabella is my favourite.

I also associate Matilda with:
Abigail, Beatrix, Charlotte, Eleanor, Felicity, Georgina, Harriet, Imogen, Juliet, Katherine, Lucy, Madeleine, Natalie, Ophelia, Penelope, Romilly, Sophia, Tallulah, Verity, Zara

Phoebe Isabella doesn't flow very well but middle names aren't used much.
Esme Isabelle has the same issue a well as the repetition of s.

How about Florence?
