Middle name for Poppy

Despite my sisters attempt to put me off the name, dh & I have decided to stick with Poppy for dd2 (due in 6 days! ) as we've loved it from the start and will only regret it if we change it because of someone elses opinion.

So now need a middle name. Here are a few on the shortlist (please criticise) but open to any other suggestions as none of them are definate yet:

Poppy Faye
Poppy Amber
Poppy Emma
Poppy Elisabeth
Poppy Heather
Poppy Evelyn

Poppy Elisabeth is lovely, really trips off the tongue! And I love Elisabeth spelled with an s.

foreverchanges · 13/07/2009 18:43

oopsacoconut · 13/07/2009 18:52

We have a Poppy Anna.

AngelaCarleen · 14/07/2009 09:28

I love the name Poppy, I'm currently 'negotiating' with my husband as he prefers Daisy. I was thinking Poppy Rose too, it's sounds so pretty but not too cutesy.

purpleflower · 14/07/2009 09:33

Poppy Elizabeth is lovely, I also like Poppy Jo.

LightShinesInTheDarkness · 14/07/2009 09:35

I think the middle name should be one syllable -

Poppy Mae
Poppy Eve
Poppy Rose
Poppy Fleur

kif · 14/07/2009 09:36

Moppy

PufferFish · 14/07/2009 17:55

We had the name 'Poppy Jean' picked out for my daughter until my husband went off it when I was 37 weeks gone. Still like it though (depending on the surname).

BFQi · 14/07/2009 17:59

Lovely choice
What about Eliza?
