Florence, Violet, Iris

[Charlotte350]

I'm stuck between these three names middle name will be Shirley after DH grandma

I dislike Violet.
It's a colour, it makes me think of the spoilt brat in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and it looks like the word "violent".

I like Violet or Florence best, but I think Florence goes best with Henry.

Like a pp, I'd go Florence Violet!

Florence or Violet

I like Iris best but they’re all nice

Definitely Florence

I like Florence and Iris. As has been mentioned upthread, hardly anyone ever uses their middle names. It is usually the cause of much surprise at people's weddings, as even close friends didn't know that they weren't called X, or had a mad middle name.

I love Violet, it is such a strong yet beautiful name. But all three are lovely.

All lovely there was a very rough girl at dds school called violet who was literally violent violet which put me off the name!

My girls are Violet Grace and Iris Ruby, now 23 and 21 years old. Sometimes if I'm overtired, I accidentally call them Virus 😉

😆My mum does something similar!

People say middle names aren’t used or known but I’ve known a Harriet Olivia prefer to use Olivia or Liv, her mum still calls her Harriet and a Kelly Natasha who goes by Natasha as apparently there were too many Kelly’s in her primary school.

I like Shirley as a first name too.
