I have a dd called Eloise. One more on the way. Like Elizabeth-is it too similar to Eloise?

Too similar imo.

I think its fine along with Eloise.

Also like Annie.

Agree with Grumpyyoungfogey though, you just aren't trying hard enough. Have you thought of Clementine? It much more MN.

And won't your DD feel left out when she starts school and every other girl is named Evie, or is that just where we live?

Elizabeth is one of my DD middle names.

I think its a nice combination with Eloise

Elisabeth is my DD's second name, and I think it is definitely one of the very prettiest timeless names.

However, I don't think it is wise to give siblings the same initial, less still names that are dramatically similar. So I wouldn't call an Eloise's little sister Elizabeth.

And Eloise is much more now and of the moment than Elisabeth. You probably ought to choose a more contemporary name in the interests of fairness. Flora or Clementine would be much better!

Elizabeth is beautiful and timeless.. it is my dd's middle name

Great choice of names and I think they do suit.

Loved Grumpy's post btw

Like Elizabeth but not Annie.

I'd shorten Elizabeth to Betty. Or Betsy. Awww. Baby Betsy... Awww.
