So I posted about whether you think Mia Imogen goes as a given first and second name and to be honest.. it got slated 🙈🤣 which I shouldn’t care about but, I do. In fact each poll I’ve put up about middle name options for this baby l, no one seems to like 😭
So I’m asking as two individual first name options…
Mia or Imogen?

Imogen
it’s a gorgeous name and I wanted it but husband wasn’t having it

ThatWhiteElephant · 14/07/2025 21:53

I think Mia is a lovely name. Going by this thread it is very popular but I haven’t meet one in real life!

I love Mia Imogen
also love both separately

theunbreakablecleopatrajones · 15/07/2025 00:19

Imogen

Mia is a bit nothingy and got really overdone 20 years ago, so it’s like having a baby in 2000 and calling her Lisa

Olidora · 15/07/2025 00:22

Mia Imogen would be my choiceX

softlyfallsthesnow · 15/07/2025 00:23

Imogen is a lovely name. Classy.

LivingTheDreamish · 22/07/2025 06:08

Mia Imogen is really pretty OP.

CarlaLemarchant · 22/07/2025 06:18

Both names are lovely, separately and together. I agree that Mia Imogen doesn’t sound perfect but it actually looks pretty written down and I can’t remember the last time I had to say my children’s full names or the last time they said them themselves. Maybe when we were renewing passports last year? Anyway, point being if you love it, use it.

Applepearpeaches · 22/07/2025 06:24

I prefer Mia as you can't shorten it, and if you use Imogen then she might be called a few different versions of the name by family and friends.

How about Mia Louise Imogen?

WhereAreWeNow · 22/07/2025 06:44

Mia. I met a Mia recently and I was thinking what a pretty name it is.

Why not add another middle name - eg Mia Rose Imogen to help with the flow.

They are both beautiful names.

Really like that. Sounds beautiful.

HelloHattie · 22/07/2025 07:11

I love Imogen and really dislike Mia. It feels dated and reminds me of me me me.

You could add another name in to help if flow if you want Mia. Mia Rose Imogen Mia Hope Imogen etc

DuchessOfNarcissex · 22/07/2025 07:19

Mia seems to be falling in popularity, so will likely date her to the first 25 years of the century.
Babies called Mia in England & Wales since 1996

The adding of another middle name is overkill.

Hazelmaybe · 22/07/2025 20:20

Imogen, there are lots of Mia’s who are teens now so may be dated?

KayEmAy · 23/07/2025 19:01

Team Mia!

Docwillseeyounow · 23/07/2025 19:03

Mia. Imogen reminds me of a baby goat and too try hard.

EWAB · 23/07/2025 19:16

A quarter of a century ago there were three Mias in my NCT class and loads in both sons’ classes.

Most were pronounced ‘Meea’ but a significant number were pronounced ‘Mya’ so it put me off name.

You can’t go wrong with Imogen. Class name!
