I really love Elsa and Stella. Depending on your surname I would use a longer middle name for Elsa.

Don't really like Daisy.

Tobermory · 18/03/2010 11:42

I really like Stella.

We have already have a Bella so def. can't use it if DC2 turns out to be a girl!

Daisy is pretty and very cute for alittle girl but I wonder about it for a 'grown-up'

Don't like Elsa Im afraid.

Love Stella.

Elsa is nice, also Ailsa.

Daisy is lovely but perhaps use as a middle name?

FernieB · 18/03/2010 12:33

Also like Stella. Agree with Tobermory - Daisy is cute for a 4 year old but for an adult - perhaps not.

I like Elsa.

I'm not so keen on Stella, I find it a bit harsh and it currently makes me think of Shameless. I love Estelle though. I really wanted that but my hubby was worried that, being in London, we'd get a horrible london accented 'Stel.

I agree that Daisy is a little girl's name but not so good for an adult.

Elsa and Stella are beautiful. I think Daisy is insubstantial.

Names that might be mn possibilities are:
Frances
Felicity
Jacqueline
Margaret
Marsali
Katherine
Phoebe
Miranda
Antonia
Charlotte
Daphne
Ingrid
Marianne

Daisy is great ... whatever the age ! I know a few adult Daisy's (in their 20's & 30's) it suits them !
Not so keen on Elsa... love Elsie though !

sparklyrainbow · 18/03/2010 21:57

Elsa is lovely. Stella seems harsher and not as nice-natured somehow. Elsa Katherine, Elsa Marie?

diddl · 19/03/2010 08:47

Elsa is great.
Elizabeth as mn?

cyteen · 19/03/2010 08:51

Elsa is gorgeous, definitely on my shortlist if we ever have a girl. It's timeless and goes from child to adult very well. Longer middle names would work well, as mathanxiety has suggested.

I used to love Stella but working with one who was the height of nutty awfulness has totally killed it for me.

Daisy is pretty and I don't see a problem with it being an adult name.

dizzydixies · 19/03/2010 11:37

Elsa is lovely and I agree with diddle - elisabeth is a lovely middle name for it

Esmee · 19/03/2010 11:44

Elsa is lovely and I would choose it from those three.

Elsa Juliet
Elsa Madeline
Elsa Marianne
Elsa Josephine

How about those for middle names?

GladioliBuckets · 20/03/2010 11:48

Elsa Marguerite
Stella Mariah
Daisy Estelle

Agreed Daisy much floppier than the other two names but then only in that context.

dizzydixies · 20/03/2010 12:03

Elsa again, haven't we had this thread already or am I having some dejavu??
