[name_m]Hi[/name_m]! trying to decide which name I love most for a first name for my first daughter. [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] or [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]? Would love any thoughts!

angelastella5 · August 23, 2021, 4:24pm

[name_f]My[/name_f] pick would be [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]!

Why not [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]?

[name_f]My[/name_f] fave combo is [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] [name_f]Parisa[/name_f]

[name_f]Maxine[/name_f] is my fave too, it’s so sleek and sassy! But [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is a great vintage gem (no pun intended!) and I agree they’d make a perfect combo in either order.

They‘re both lovely,but I slightly prefer [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]

They’re both adorable, I think I’m leaning more towards [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]. I love @angelastella5 ’s suggestion of [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]. I think [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] also sounds cute as well <3

maxine gets my vote!

elanorelle · August 23, 2021, 5:28pm

Soft, simple [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] gets my vote.

planetnames · August 23, 2021, 5:29pm

I prefer [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]! Such a lovely name.

Greyblue · August 23, 2021, 6:34pm

I absolutely love [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]

NamingBabyBriel · August 23, 2021, 6:39pm

a vote for [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]. And think the suggestion of [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is so lovely

I love [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] !!!

sarahjane1 · August 23, 2021, 7:38pm

Not a fan of [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]- where I’ve lived (UK & NZ) it’s really dated but it might not be where you are.

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]! That one’s old fashioned but the same style as all the oldies that are back in use whereas [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] still seems fusty here at present.

janeybaby · August 23, 2021, 7:44pm

I would go with [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]. Maybe even [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]

Halloween_Jacqueline · August 23, 2021, 8:18pm

I love [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]!

futuremama · August 23, 2021, 8:33pm

I definitely prefer [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]! [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] would be lovely if you’re willing to use [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] as a middle

minxtruck · August 23, 2021, 8:49pm

They’re both lovely, but I slightly prefer [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] a first name. Like @futuremama says, [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] would be gorgeous if you’d consider [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] as a middle name instead?

hpdvk · August 23, 2021, 9:22pm

I think I prefer [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]!

AmyVermeersch · August 23, 2021, 10:07pm

Both names are really great! It’s hard to choose.

I like [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] more because it’s so classic and beautiful. What about [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]?

lemonrose · August 23, 2021, 10:09pm

i would pick Maxine!! seconding (third-ing? fourth-ing?) the suggestion of [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] :))
