[name]Love[/name] [name]Greer[/name] [name]Garson[/name] and the vintage but modern sound of [name]Greer[/name]. And love that it’s unfussy and straightforward. I always wanted a one syllable name. But then I also love shortening a longer name to a one syllable nn to make it more personal. (I’m [name]Amy[/name], I love when people call me [name]Ame[/name], makes me feel loved).
[name]Love[/name] [name]Phoebe[/name] for it’s spunk but history that keeps it grounded. And it’s nicknames.
We’re considering [name]Greer[/name] [name]Phoebe[/name] or [name]Phoebe[/name] [name]Greer[/name] to get both in. I know the flow is not ideal but I’m not really concerned with the perfect flow, we’d rather get to use both our favorite names.
[name]Sister[/name] is [name]Olive[/name] [name]Louise[/name]… mostly [name]Ollie[/name], sometimes [name]Ollie[/name] [name]Lou[/name] or [name]Lolly[/name] or even just [name]Lou[/name]. Probably [name]Liv[/name] when she outgrows [name]Ollie[/name].
So what do you say? Which is better as a first name? Not which order sounds better as a complete name? We’d probably use both names at home a lot, not necessarily together, just use them both, especially nicknames [name]Fee[/name] and [name]Bee[/name] and G :), but she’d be known by her first name outside the home. I can’t let either go!
First of all, I love your daughter’s name! [name]Olive[/name] [name]Louise[/name] is just charming.
Secondly, I like [name]Phoebe[/name] better stylistically with [name]Olive[/name], but I like [name]Greer[/name] more as a name. I think [name]Greer[/name] [name]Phoebe[/name] or [name]Phoebe[/name] [name]Greer[/name] would be a fabulous way to use both.
I think, in the end, [name]Greer[/name] [name]Phoebe[/name] (or even [name]Grier[/name] [name]Phoebe[/name], which I prefer) would get my vote. Spunky, charming, and feminine. I love it!
Definitely [name]Phoebe[/name] [name]Greer[/name]–it’s perfect with [name]Olive[/name] [name]Louise[/name], and it sounds much better than [name]Greer[/name] [name]Phoebe[/name], [name]IMO[/name].
I like [name]Phoebe[/name] a lot more than [name]Greer[/name], and I like it better with [name]Olive[/name] and I think the flow of [name]Phoebe[/name] [name]Greer[/name] is better than the alternative
All that being said, I prefer [name]Phoebe[/name] [name]Greer[/name].
I have had an irrational hatred toward [name]Greer[/name] from the moment I first heard it. It reminds me of grim, grimace, and rear. But you should go with what you love and the style is similar to the other names. [name]Happy[/name] naming!
[name]Love[/name] [name]Phoebe[/name]! It was my #1 for a long time, but my married name is a 3 syllable French name, that almost rhymes with phoebe… Not an option for me anymore
[name]Greer[/name] is now on my list tho, so obviously I love both!
With [name]Olive[/name], you could go either way!
I do tho tend to lean towards [name]Phoebe[/name]…
If you like one syllable names, I love the name [name]Sloane[/name]!
