Trying to decide on a girls name, which do you prefer? We love [name_f]Florence[/name_f] with the n.n. [name_f]Flora[/name_f], but are trying to decide on the middle name. Thanks for your help!
[name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] [name_m]Ramsey[/name_m] or
[name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] [name_m]Ramsey[/name_m]
Both are great, so the good news is that you can’t go wrong. I think [name_f]Mae[/name_f] flows better as a MN, especially if you occasionally want to call her “[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]” rather than “[name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]”, because “[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]” is a bit too repetitive in sound.
I agree with the poster who preferred [name_f]Mae[/name_f] but said [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] had a better flow. I think they’re both great combinations.
I like [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] best. I think it flows wonderfully and sounds better to my ear. [name_f]Eliza[/name_f], with that sharp ‘z’ sound, detracts from the prettiness of [name_f]Florence[/name_f].
