It’s just occurred to me that, if I let SO have his #1 girls name, Imogen, then he might just let me indulge my not-so-inner name nerd and agree to us using something fun & adventurous in the middle spot (instead of a family name).
So berries, hit me with all your wildest, most whimsical middles for Imogen!
Oooh, [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] is divine! I love her! Sooo sunny, sparky, and classically demure. Feels like a breath of fresh air and clean cotton. A springy name that adapts to any season of weather or mood. [name_f]Cozy[/name_f] as a well-loved book and fresh-brewed tea with bread. [name_f]Gorgeous[/name_f] name.
I also adore [name_f]Innogen[/name_f], a very similar one with the same feelings but a ton of extra wow and intrigue with some double N’s! I read that this name was what [name_m]Shakespeare[/name_m] was trying to use when he wrote is character [name_f]Imogen[/name_f], but that the N’s became written as an M in time (or, something like that). Which I love!
Here are some I’d consider with sweet [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] (some are much less GP, but I love them anyway!) …

[name_f]Imogen[/name_f] is such a great name! [name_f]My[/name_f] friend had a little baby [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] just a few days ago and I’m really crushing on it right now
[name_m]Even[/name_m] though [name_u]Fable[/name_u] is already on my longlist, I never considered her as a middle name for [name_f]Imogen[/name_f]. But, I think [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_u]Fable[/name_u] is my new favourite. Thanks @katinka!
Ooooh [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Moon[/name_f] is magical!
I love the suggestions of [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_u]Sparrow[/name_u] and [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Honey[/name_f]!
There are already so many fun frilly girl ideas, (I can’t come up with any more) but I think [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] could really pair well with some more masculine leaning nature names too, like [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_u]Wilder[/name_u], [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_u]Everest[/name_u], [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_u]Fox[/name_u], or [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_u]Atlas[/name_u]!
