Elspeth or Verity?

Hi all! Can’t decide between Elspeth or Verity for DD3 - which do you prefer?

[name_f]Welcome[/name_f] to Nameberry!

Both of those names are utterly gorgeous but I have a particular soft spot for [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f]. It’s dainty and delicate but with a really sturdy and distinctive sound.

Thanks @katinka I feel the same about [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] :blush:

Both are stunning!! But, for me, it would depend on DD1 and DD2’s first names, if you don’t mind sharing those. :slight_smile:

Thanks @katkabet I love it too! I think it hits the sweet spot of being classic and familiar, but not too popular. I think the same about [name_f]Verity[/name_f], but don’t feel it has the same romantic charm as [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f]. To me, [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] has quite an ethereal quality.

Hm…I am leaning toward [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] with those two. It has the same ethereal feel, I think. But you really can’t go wrong either way!

Tough choice!! I think I prefer the warm [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f], especially as it comes with the nicknames [name_f]Elsie[/name_f] and [name_f]Effie[/name_f]

Both names are great, though I like [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] the most. I knew an [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] who went by the nickname [name_f]Elf[/name_f], and it suited her well.

Both [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] and [name_f]Verity[/name_f] are beautiful and go soo well with your daughter’s names. [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] matches Maeve’s gentle softness, but fiery element, whilst [name_f]Verity[/name_f] has the bright energy and spring-like feel of [name_f]Flora[/name_f]. Today I’d go for [name_f]Verity[/name_f] just because I’m loving the fun vibe she has.

[name_u]Love[/name_u] them both. [name_f]Verity[/name_f] [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] or [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f]. I’d rather be named [name_f]Verity[/name_f] but both are wonderful.

Both are great. I feel it greatly depends on the middle name and another possible factor could be on the siblings names.
