Imogen Ruth, Charlotte Josephine, and Elinor ___

Girl Names
1

[name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] and [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] are at the top of my list. My next favorite for a fn is [name_f]Elinor[/name_f], but I can’t find a middle name I really love to go with it. I like all the names to have either a literary, Biblical, or family connection, but it’s not a must. Some family names (don’t really love any with [name_f]Elinor[/name_f]):

[name_u]Mattie[/name_u]
[name_f]Martha[/name_f]
[name_f]Ann[/name_f]
[name_f]Gertrude[/name_f] (not my style, maybe a diminutive)
[name_f]Mamie[/name_f]

And some that have already been used in the family but could consider in a different form?
[name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Carol[/name_f] ([name_f]Caroline[/name_f] is used)
[name_f]Leola[/name_f]
[name_f]Mae[/name_f] (but my niece & nephew call me Aunt [name_f]Mae[/name_f] for [name_f]Meghan[/name_f])

Could also call [name_f]Elinor[/name_f] “[name_f]Nora[/name_f]” to honor my grandmother, [name_f]Norma[/name_f].

Any ideas?

We’ve just had an [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], and both middles we considered were family honor names. We chose [name_f]Iris[/name_f], but the other one was [name_f]Susannah[/name_f], which has a biblical connection as well

[name_f]Elinor[/name_f] [name_f]Susannah[/name_f]

I also like

[name_f]Elinor[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f]

And that could honor the [name_f]Mamie[/name_f]

[name_f]Elinor[/name_f] [name_f]Matilda[/name_f]

Is a lovely name to honor the [name_u]Mattie[/name_u]

Good luck deciding!

Like the above suggestions, or
[name_f]Elinor[/name_f] [name_f]Frances[/name_f]
[name_f]Elinor[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]
[name_f]Elinor[/name_f] Lucy

But I somehow think if you’re going for [name_f]Elinor[/name_f] instead of [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], then the middle name should have an i or y or high scrabble tile in it, something unexpected, like [name_f]Anouk[/name_f], [name_f]Astrid[/name_f] or [name_f]Clio[/name_f]. The names above suit [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] better I think.

[name_f]Elinor[/name_f] [name_f]Trudy[/name_f], as a diminutive of [name_f]Gertrude[/name_f], would be lovely. I really love [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]!

Thanks everyone. Great suggestions! I especially like [name_f]Elinor[/name_f] [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] (but don’t think SO will go for it) and [name_f]Elinor[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is great, but I definitely want to keep it as a fn.

sbw, [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] is awesome!

Last name will be [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] if that helps at all.
