I love both Lily and Rose. I like 1) evocative, 2) simple 3) word names.
However I know I like Rose more that Lily, but at same time I want to use June in the middle spot (for sure, set on stone middle name for us). Knowing this, which one you recommend I go with? the combo that makes more sense and has a better flow and sound, or the combo that includes most loved names?
I also must add, we would like to use the full name rather than the first name only, hence the shorter names we picked to go with June, so think like a double barreled situation…
Rose June
Lily June

Many Thanks!
Gosh just like you I love both [name_f]Lily[/name_f] + [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
However I would strongly advise for you to go with your preferred name over flow/sound etc. Honestly middle names are rarely used and you’ll regret not choosing your favourite over something like flow.
However if it was me I would use all three names! People having two middle names is not a rarity nowadays and it would be a shame to loose out on a name you love especially as it maybe your only opportunity to name a baby.
I think I would go [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f]. Lily-Rose is a common combination (I have cousin with this name) and even though it’s a very flower power name I think she works due to familiarity of the choice. Anyways I would [name_f]Rose[/name_f] up front with [name_f]Lily[/name_f] and [name_f]June[/name_f] in the middle. This would also resolve any issues with flow. I think [name_f]Lily[/name_f] breaks up [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and [name_f]June[/name_f] nicely.
If you’re not open to double middles, then I’d go for [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f]. I think it is a bit easier to say, especially taking in the fact that you intend to say her full name. If you’re open to double middles, however, I love @/tori101’s suggestion of [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f] or even Lily-Rose [name_f]June[/name_f].
I had to comment given my username haha. I do think [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f] flows a little bit better than [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f], but I still think [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f] actually sounds really lovely. if you’re torn between what you love and what flows well, definitely go for what you love!
Of course, I have to suggest [name_f]Rosa[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f], still short and sweet but adds a teensy bit of length. I also like Lily-Rose [name_f]June[/name_f]!
