We just found out yesterday that we’re having a girl and I’m so excited! It’s also a bit of a relief because I was struggling to fall in love with boy names like I have with our list for girls.
Our list right now:
[name_f]Winifred[/name_f] nn [name_f]Winnie[/name_f]/[name_u]Freddie[/name_u]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] nn [name_f]Bea[/name_f]/[name_f]Bebe[/name_f]
[name_f]Frances[/name_f] nn [name_u]Frankie[/name_u]
[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] nn [name_f]Daisy[/name_f]
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]
I’m very strongly leaning towards [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] and [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]. We landed on [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] during our last discussion but I’m not sure if it’s substantial enough for me. I’d love your thoughts, suggestions, combo pairings, etc.
[name_f]Agatha[/name_f]
[name_f]Cecily[/name_f]
[name_f]Cornelia[/name_f] nn [name_u]Neely[/name_u]
[name_f]Edith[/name_f]
[name_f]Enid[/name_f]
[name_f]Harriet[/name_f]
[name_f]Henrietta[/name_f] nn [name_f]Hettie[/name_f] or [name_f]Etta[/name_f]
[name_f]Imogen[/name_f]
[name_f]Sybil[/name_f]
[name_f]Tamsin[/name_f] nn [name_f]Tansy[/name_f]
[name_f]Winnie[/name_f] also gets my vote but I love both!
I love [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] and [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] is my second favorite
[name_f]Coralie[/name_f] nn [name_f]Cora[/name_f]/[name_f]Coco[/name_f]
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] nn [name_f]Nell[/name_f]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] nn [name_f]Eve[/name_f]/[name_f]Evie[/name_f]
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f] nn [name_f]Flick[/name_f], Flissy, Lissy, etc
[name_f]Florence[/name_f] nn [name_f]Flora[/name_f], [name_f]Flo[/name_f], [name_f]Flossie[/name_f]
[name_f]Georgia[/name_f] nn [name_u]Georgie[/name_u]
[name_f]Leonie[/name_f]/[name_f]Leona[/name_f] nn [name_f]Nonie[/name_f]/[name_f]Lea[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] nn [name_f]Maggie[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f], [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], [name_f]Maisie[/name_f]
[name_f]Ottilie[/name_f] nn [name_f]Lottie[/name_f]
[name_f]Penelope[/name_f] nn [name_u]Penny[/name_u], [name_f]Nell[/name_f], [name_f]Nellie[/name_f], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f]
[name_f]Romilly[/name_f] nn [name_u]Romy[/name_u], [name_f]Millie[/name_f]
And I agree that [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] doesn’t really have the same substance to it as the others. [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] and [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] would be my top combos.
[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] for you, and both nicknames are just adorable! I agree that [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] would be a stunning combo.
If you both like and agree on [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] seems like a nice, solid, quirky-vintage way to get there which is more in-keeping with your other choices. [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] is my second favourite for you. In fact, they’d be perfect for sisters!
My [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] nn [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] was born this week so that gets my vote! We’ve gotten a few questions about whether [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] is rally a nickname for [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] but mostly people seem to have jumped on board with calling her [name_f]Daisy[/name_f]. I had the same reservations- loved [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] but it didn’t seem substantial enough for an adult. I’m really happy with our choice and she’ll have lots of choices down the road.
I love [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] for you, so beautiful but cute. Honestly, all your picks seem great and one might just seem like hers when she comes.
I’d prefer [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] nn [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] to just [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] and I think that’s a great solution to the reservations you’re having
I really love [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] for you. It sounds great with many of your favorites middles:
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]
My favourite is [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] or [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] nn [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] (i do think daisy can stand on its own I just like [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] more). I think [name_u]June[/name_u] would make a beautiful middle name for all your choices, it’s not usually a name I like but it makes all the first names feel so light and airy that I can’t help but love it.
I really love [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] for you! I feel like it’s been a favorite of yours for a long time.
[name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f], [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u], & [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] would all be nice. I think my favorite is [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], however.
My second favorite would be [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] “[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]”. [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u] is super pretty.
[name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f]!!! I love it. Though I’m biased and also love [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]. [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] is probably my favorite [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] combo. Good luck and congratulations!!
My favourite is [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]! I would prefer [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] though. [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] would be my second choice, however I prefer the nickname [name_u]Del[/name_u], [name_f]Della[/name_f] or even [name_f]Addie[/name_f] - I’m just not too fond of [name_f]Daisy[/name_f].
My top 3 combos:
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]Primrose[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]
My favorite of the first names on your list is probably [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] nn [name_f]Winnie[/name_f]. So cute and vintage! I love it. My second favorite would be [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f], with [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] not far behind. I’m not sure about [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] as a nn to [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f], it seems like a bit of a stretch. If you like [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] as a nn, would you like [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] as a full name?
Here are some combos I like using your suggested middle names -
[name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] - I really like this one! It’s cute and vintage, but strong too.
[name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] - I really like this one too! It does seem a bit harder to say though.
[name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Primrose[/name_f] - I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] this one! It’s just so extraordinary!
My favorite out of these is [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Primrose[/name_f], followed by [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f].
Here are some other middle names I adore with [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] -
[name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] nn [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] or [name_f]Margot[/name_f]
[name_f]Diana[/name_f] nn [name_f]Annie[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] that I helped! Good [name_m]Luck[/name_m]!
I prefer [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] over [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] but both are lovely. I think [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] or [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] would be gorgeous.
It’s also a bit of a relief because I was struggling to fall in love with boy names like I have with our list for girls.
