Lucy's one of my favourite names. Nice with Rose too.

CountessDracula · 17/07/2009 13:06

Sophie

Rose and jane rather dull though
how about something a bit more interesting for a middle name?

BlueChampagne · 17/07/2009 13:23

Love Lucy

fruitshootsandheaves · 17/07/2009 13:27

I have a Sophie so I am biased
If DS2 had been a girl he would have been Lucy

shouldweorshouldntwe · 17/07/2009 13:30

Lucy Rose.

Love Alice but I have one so am biased! I think it's a bit less common than the other two.

Jane is our family middle name, my DP has an unsual name and wont let me steer to anything more interesting as he was bullied at school for his name.

I do like Hollie, however everyone keeps telling me its for a christmas baby!

Any of them. Very pretty.

Does it matter to you that there are many many of these names ATM? You have chosen about 1/3 of the names in my dds school.

WynkenBlynkenandNod · 17/07/2009 13:32

Like them all a lot. If put in order Alice is my favourite, then Lucy and Sophie.

dizzydixies · 17/07/2009 13:35

any, they're all fine

lol, yes i know very popular, but dp has a major hang up about his name and always wanted a 'normal' name and wont let me choose anything else.

In which case, Alice!

OrmIrian · 17/07/2009 13:40

Don't like sophie - it makes me think of King Charles spaniels, and sofas... The other 2 are v nice.

StealthPolarBear · 17/07/2009 13:40

Love them all - in fact this bump will be called Alice if a girl!

LouMacca · 17/07/2009 13:54

My DD is Sophie Alice

Love Lucy too but was already used by a close friend. Rose is pretty as a middle name.

loobylu3 · 17/07/2009 13:56

Alice, Lucy, then Sophie.

plonker · 17/07/2009 14:51

Lucy Rose. Beautiful.

Then Sophie, then Alice.

bumpybecky · 17/07/2009 14:59

I've got a Lucy Alice I've also got an Isabel Rose.

I like Sophie too

they're all good names!

sockmonster · 17/07/2009 18:33

If you're thinking of name meanings at all, then I prefer Lucy (light/bringer of light) though DD was Lucia so I am biased too!
Sophie means wisdom and is very pretty name, and am considerng Alice if DC2 isn't a boy. I don't like the middle name Jane as much as Rose though. Alice as a middle name, perhaps, with Lucy or Sophie first?

Boodlerpoop · 17/07/2009 19:40

Lucy Rose is lovely...

Cies · 17/07/2009 19:44

I like them all, but Alice is my favourite.

slowreadingprogress · 17/07/2009 20:32

Lucy Rose.

LaDiDaDi · 17/07/2009 20:38

I like them all but I think Alice Rose works least well as a combination, not sure why. Alice Jane is fine though.

BonsoirAnna · 17/07/2009 20:38

I think they are all very pretty but a little boring!

Bert2e · 17/07/2009 20:41

Alice - not met a small one for years and both my boys would have been called Alice if they had been girls.
