He changed his mind AGAIN! Argh!

Ok so just when I was leaning towards [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] (which was his favorite name) he comes along and says he thinks the girls shouldn’t share the letter x. Now he likes [name_f]Iris[/name_f].

What do you think about [name_f]Roxanne[/name_f], [name_f]Vera[/name_f] and [name_f]Iris[/name_f]? [name_f]Do[/name_f] they work together?

If so, does anyone have any middle name suggestions? We liked [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] but it is too naturey with [name_f]Iris[/name_f] and our last name.

Any help would be extremely appreciated at this point. Thanks.

I’ve never been a fan of [name_f]Iris[/name_f], but I think it goes great with [name_f]Roxanne[/name_f] and [name_f]Vera[/name_f]! Have you considered just using [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]?

Other suggestions:

[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Coralie[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Aurelie[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Francesca[/name_f]

I don’t love [name_f]Iris[/name_f] as much as some others but she does work very well with sisters [name_f]Roxanne[/name_f] and [name_f]Vera[/name_f].
[name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], [name_f]Ida[/name_f] or [name_f]Ada[/name_f]?

[name_f]Roxanne[/name_f], [name_f]Vera[/name_f], and [name_f]Iris[/name_f] sound really nice together.

I love the name [name_f]Iris[/name_f] too. Middles:

[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Helena[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Gwendolyn[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Bianca[/name_f]

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Iris[/name_f]!!!

I quite like [name_f]Roxanne[/name_f], [name_f]Vera[/name_f] and [name_f]Iris[/name_f] together. I think it’s a charming trio. They’re different names but complementary. I think [name_f]Iris[/name_f] needs a longer middle name.

[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f]

[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f]

I think [name_f]Iris[/name_f] works great! I think [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] is too similar to [name_f]Roxanne[/name_f] anyway–[name_f]Vera[/name_f] would be the odd girl out.

Thanks everyone for the comments and middle name ideas. It has been such a huge help. DH really likes [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] out of the names suggested so far. If there are any other ideas please keep them coming. :slight_smile:

I really like [name_f]Iris[/name_f] with [name_f]Roxanne[/name_f] and [name_f]Vera[/name_f], it’d perfect in your sibset! As for combos how about
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Veronica[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Cressida[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f]

[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] is a family name. But no one in my family likes it. Haha. But I see it is a favorite on here.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Would anyone else like to provide any middle name suggestions? Other daughters middles are [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] and [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f].

DH loves [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] but it seems a bit more traditional than our other middles. (Or maybe I just need more time to like it)

I like [name_f]Roxanne[/name_f], [name_f]Vera[/name_f], and [name_f]Iris[/name_f]!

I’m not a fan of [name_f]Iris[/name_f], but I think it works well with your other girls. :slight_smile:

[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Kathleen[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Annabelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Paulina[/name_f]/[name_f]Polina[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Lillian[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Paloma[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Joanna[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Madeline[/name_f]

I second [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]. :slight_smile:

I really like [name_f]Iris[/name_f] as a name.
I particularly like the meanings associated.
I also like the song “[name_f]Iris[/name_f]”.

Although [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] is very floral I do like it.
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] is very pretty.

[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Georgina[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Helena[/name_f]

[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] is one of my all time favourite combos! I think [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] works too. I don’t know what your surname is but I think [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] is gorgeous! I have to say I much prefer [name_f]Iris[/name_f] both in general and with your other daughters names to [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]. [name_f]Iris[/name_f] is really perfect with [name_f]Roxane[/name_f] and [name_f]Vera[/name_f].

[name_m]Just[/name_m] wanted to stop by and add another suggestion. If you’re not crazy about [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] how about [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Magdalene[/name_f]? [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Natalie[/name_f] also comes to mind. Or maybe [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Bethany[/name_f]? And, if it makes any difference, [name_f]Juliet[/name_f], to me, feels like the same style as [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] and [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f].

Thanks to everyone for the new comments! Our last name is a nature name (But it sounds OK with [name_f]Iris[/name_f]) However, [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] just becomes waaaay too much. Although it is a gorgeous name.

We considered [name_f]Maxine[/name_f] but like the flow of a three syllable middle name. Plus there is no point stopping the trend now since our other 2 have the same flow.

It seems I’ll just have to think about [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] more as that is definitely DH’s favorite. I do like it…just need to find out how much. Thanks everyone for the comments on [name_f]Iris[/name_f] and the sib set as well as providing middle name suggestions. Very much appreciated.

[name_f]Juliet[/name_f] is a beautiful, beautiful name and if it was me I would use it in the first name position.

I am not mad about [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] but it really works with [name_f]Iris[/name_f] but why not consider [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f]?
