Emily Rose or Lily Catherine?

[Cocor8]

I like both Emily and Lily as first anmes but struggling to decide. I think Catherine as middle name to a short soft name like Lily gives it a lot of stronger classic vibe and it’s the name of my dhs grandma who just recently passed away.

I love Emily too although I know it’s way past its peak and think rose is prettier with it than Catherine.

thoughts?

Emily Catherine Rose would be nice.
Lily has been overused for quite a few years now. It's pretty, but a bit insubstantial. The very classic Catherine gives it a bit more gravitas.

Just Emily Rose is very pretty but like pps said, this combination was used a lot about 25 years ago. Plus the horror film? And it's also the name of an actress, starred in the fantasy series Haven of a few years ago (loosely based on a Stephen King story). In that case Rose was her surname I suppose.

I like Catherine Rose!

Emily Catherine Rose is overkill. It's like the Firstame Middlename Louise Surname of its time.

Lily Catherine is lovely.

Lily Catherine (or Emily Catherine if you prefer Emily).

Eta Apologies no idea how that sent again! I guess I'm voting for Lily Catherine twice!

I knew twins with the names and had immediately thought the same. I think someone must have pointed out eventually because they became "Rose and Emily" all of a sudden as toddlers after always being "Emily and Rose" 😂

The world does not need another Lily…and that’s what she will be. Emily is gorgeous.. good luck in choosing x

I'm also reading a book about a murder and the victim is Emily Rose! It's a pretty name though, I really love Lily Catherine!

Lily Catherine out of your choices but prefer Emily Catherine

Rose is such a common middle name it’s become pretty pointless

I like Catherine Emily! It flows slightly better to me!

Both are gorgeous

Yes I do too.

I like Lily but to me its more a nn from Elizabeth.

Rose is the best name from the bunch.
Emily, Lily and Catherine are all nice but meh. Rose is beautiful but gets hidden away as a middle name.

Catherine Rose.
