Hello all!
Looking for a middle name for Agnes and was wondering what the general public thinks of these:

Agnes Elsa
Agnes Elsie
Agnes Essie
Agnes Élise / Elise
Agnes Elyse
Agnes Elvira

As you can see from the poll I have a thing for names that start with an E 😜

Other names we like are:

Agnes Iris
Agnes Lovisa
Agnes Vilhelmina

Or can you think of names that you think we would like...

TY!😍

Wow, clearly Agnes is a bit marmite!

My mum is Agnes, but has always been known as Nancy which is weirdly an old nickname for Agnes.

She hates it, but I think it has been having revival with Agnes B and Agnes Deyn. It is quite cool again. I think it is pretty classy and french, not too cutesy.

My mum has a family surname as her middle name which makes it unusual.

Too many S’s going on.

With the S sounding like the start of the next name. Agnes Elsie sounds like Agnes Selsey (as in Selsey Bill) Agnes Seltzer, etc.

No E names (or other vowels) no names with S.
