I like Clara Juliet

user1492757084 · 01/04/2026 13:09

My faves ..

Rose Elizabeth
Clara Juliet

Jessbow · 01/04/2026 13:24

Clara Elizabeth
If she really doesn't like Clara when she's older, Elizabeth has so many options for names

I actually like Elizabeth as a forename

Stickytoffeetartt · 01/04/2026 13:25

Rosa Celeste , love the name Rosa ♥️

NamingNoNames · 01/04/2026 14:03

Rosa

deeahgwitch · 01/04/2026 14:13

I like Rose but I don’t like Clara or Rosa

Mumofgirls2017 · 01/04/2026 14:33

Clara Juliet and Rosa Calliope are beautiful 😍

NamingNoNames · 01/04/2026 14:35

I don't like Clara and Rose seems a bit drippy.
Unless there's a reason for the spelling, I'd use Elizabeth. Calliope makes me think of Catastrophe. Juliet is ok but not if it's said as Juliette.
Celeste is Babar's wife.
I don't like Evangeline.

OsmanthusRose · 01/04/2026 14:38

I love all of those. If we had a girl she was going to be Rose Elizabeth or Anna Rose so I will go with Rose Elisabeth. If your surname begins with D you can call her Rose Red (if you are a What Katy Did fan!).
Clara Celeste is also lovely.

goldingoose · 01/04/2026 14:39

Rose Elizabeth.

I have been saying Juliet and Juliette over and over and can't work out how you would say them differently!

That's why I wouldn't use it.

One has the stress on the Jul, the other on ette. Like in Janet and Janette. Daniel and Danielle etc.

Needlegaladviceplease · 01/04/2026 15:46

Rose Elizabeth

RarePeachBear · 01/04/2026 15:48

I think Anna and Rose sound lovely together and the best pairing for siblings.

DemonsandMosquitoes · 01/04/2026 16:26

Rosa (but would pair with Catherine)

Giraffehaver · 01/04/2026 22:35

Rose Evangeline is so pretty

RoyalPenguin · 01/04/2026 22:36

Clara Juliet is my favourite.

MabelAnderson · 01/04/2026 22:38

I really like Rosa.
The baby in the next bed when I had dd1 21 years ago was called Rosa, and I haven’t met another one.

Gagamama2 · 01/04/2026 23:00

LOVE the name Rosa.

Rosa Celeste from your choices is very beautiful and unique without being too much

HisNotHes · 02/04/2026 00:10

Clara definitely!
Not particularly keen on either of the middle name combos although Juliet is lovely, just not necessarily with Clara.

LivingTheDreamish · 02/04/2026 03:34

Any of those names are lovely will will sit nicely with Anna. I think Rose slightly edges it for me. Juliet would also be nice as a first name.

mathanxiety · 02/04/2026 04:18

Clara Juliet is my favourite.

Rosa Juliet would also be nice.

Rara12 · 02/04/2026 04:23

I’m Clara and I love my name. I also have a sister called Anna.
ps all your name choices are beautiful!!

edit to say: I do not go by the nickname Rara IRL. (I don’t have a diminutive).

Amiacoolorwarmcolour · 02/04/2026 07:59

Rose Evangeline.

TappyGilmore · 02/04/2026 08:04

Rose Elisabeth. Or actually I think Elisabeth Rose flows better. (I’d probably spell it Elizabeth but Elisabeth is okay.)

I don’t like Clara or Rosa at all. And I feel bad saying that about Rosa because I only know one and she
is just the loveliest girl ever! But it’s not a name I’d choose.
