What do you think of these names, and what middle names would you put with them? And which do you think would go well as sisters?

Ideas I have:
Jemima Alice
Jemima Clementine
Alice Lucinda Rose
Alice Jemima Rose
Lucinda Beatrix Rose
Lucinda Clementine
Tabitha Cecily Rose

Any more suggestions very welcome. Thank you.

I like Tabitha the best, with Lucinda as second. Think I prefer Lucinda Clementine to Beatrix Rose, but was never a fan of two middle names to be honest.

Don't really like Jemima or Alice at all.

LaDiDaDi · 12/02/2009 15:56

I like all of your choices, least keen on Tabitha but the rest are great.

I think that Jemima Alice and Lucinda Beatrix work very well, not sure you need to add the "Rose" on to the end.

IloveBrucie · 12/02/2009 15:59

TBH they all sound like names from Beatrix Potter, far too twee for me

Alice is ok but not with those middle names soz

LightShinesInTheDarkness · 12/02/2009 16:04

Spooooky - IloveBrucie read my mind!

MrsMattie · 12/02/2009 16:11

Alice is the only one I like. The rest are too twee/posh for my tastes.

shootfromthehip · 12/02/2009 16:14

Love Tabitha and Jemima- both names I considered for DS!

LaTrucha · 12/02/2009 16:18

Alice

dueinnovember · 12/02/2009 16:31

Alice Lucinda or Lucinda Beatrix - are you expecting twins if you're looking for sister names? Lucinda's good as you can shorten it to Lucy or Lulu. Nicknames for the others aren't so nice.

conniedescending · 12/02/2009 16:43

I think Jemima ALice and Tabitha ose are both gorgeous and would make lovely sisters names.

Not keen on Lucinda or Beatrix

Clementine is nice - Clementine Alice or Alice Clementine works well.

I know an Imogen and Emmeline who are the sisters of a Tabitha.

jellybeans · 12/02/2009 16:47

I like Tabitha the best

Blu · 12/02/2009 16:51

Not Jemima Alice - I don't think two voewls go well together, sounds like JemimaRalice.

All nice names though.

MamaG · 12/02/2009 16:52

Alice Olivia

janeite · 12/02/2009 16:54

Alice Cecily Rose or Cecily Alice Rose = lovely. The others all sound a bit "too much" imho.

ruty · 12/02/2009 16:55

Tabitha Cecily gorgeous. I wanted Cecily but dh vetoed it.

dizzyTHETARTANARMYdixies · 12/02/2009 16:58

I love them all except Lucinda

charitygirl · 12/02/2009 17:09

Too much Rose in my opinion - every baby girl born since 2000 seems to have this as a middle name.

Cecily is lovely!

stepfordwife · 12/02/2009 17:10

tabitha
alice

audley · 12/02/2009 19:33

Tabitha Cecily Rose -swoon
Clementine Alice would be nice too
I think the other combos are just a little cumbersome, all beautiful names but not quite right together imo

wasaconventgirl · 12/02/2009 20:25

Tabitha and Jemima.

LadyPinkofPinkerton · 12/02/2009 20:33

I adore Jemima And Tabitha, both are names DH would never let me have. Just as well I had boys

Madmentalbint · 12/02/2009 20:38

Love love LOVE Jemima - such a pretty name

WinkyWinkola · 12/02/2009 20:40

Clementine is amazing and can't be used as a middle name, IMO.

Jemima Alice
Tabitha Cecily

Timeisablindguide · 12/02/2009 20:42

Alice is nice and Cecily is sweet but really not keen on Tabitha, Rose or Clementine, sorry!

loobylu3 · 12/02/2009 21:23

I'm not too keen on Tabitha, Jemima is okay.
I like all the other individually especially Cecily and Alice.
I think some of the combinations are a bit too much. It feel as if you are trying to squeeze in as many pretty names as possible!!
How about Clementine Rose or Cecily Alice?

dinkymum · 12/02/2009 21:40

LOVE Jemima, think the surname choice depends on surname hope that hellps x
