Lola Kate or Claire Elizabeth?

[gracie]

Well it sounds like [name]Lola[/name] and [name]Claire[/name] are your first picks so how about
[name]Lola[/name] [name]Claire[/name]? that way your honouring your grandmother and the person on your husbands side as well. I think it flows
good luck!

I think [name]Lola[/name] is so trendy, and [name]Claire[/name] is just timeless and pretty.

I vote [name]Claire[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]…oh it’s a great name.

I love [name]Claire[/name] [name]Isham[/name]! While [name]Claire[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] would normally top my list for middle names, I agree that the flow with your last name sounds off. [name]Claire[/name] is best paired with a much longer middle because of its one-syllable so here goes:

[name]Claire[/name] [name]Josephine[/name] [name]Isham[/name] (too much ‘s’?)
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Alouette[/name] [name]Isham[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Isham[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Katerina[/name] [name]Isham[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Lorelei[/name] [name]Isham[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Eloisa[/name] [name]Isham[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Adrienne[/name] [name]Isham[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Marguerite[/name] [name]Isham[/name]/[name]Claire[/name] [name]Margaret[/name] [name]Isham[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Victoria[/name] [name]Isham[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Georgiana[/name] [name]Isham[/name]

Good luck (and by the way, I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Rhys[/name] [name]Patrick[/name]!)

[name]Claire[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] is beautiful! timeless, classic! I also love the suggestion of [name]Clara[/name] [name]Katherine[/name]- that is a gorgeous combo!!!
[name]Lola[/name] [name]Kate[/name] while not bad, sounds trendy and just cutesy… Clearly not of the same caliber as [name]Claire[/name] or [name]Clara[/name]!

Another vote for [name]Lola[/name] [name]Claire[/name]…I love [name]Lola[/name] and the honoring of your grandmother is really nice, but other posters have a point that it has a very “young” and slightly immature feel. Pairing it with the nicknamey [name]Kate[/name] overemphasizes those qualities. subbing the more reserved [name]Claire[/name] as a middle name grows [name]Lola[/name] up a bit and makes it sound more mature.

I love [name]Claire[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]! I also like [name]Lola[/name], but unlike most nameberry-ites, I am not a huge fan of [name]Kate[/name]. [name]Love[/name] it as a nickname, but it feels insubstantial to me on its own. [name]Lola[/name] [name]Katherine[/name] also would be lovely.

I still love [name]Lola[/name] [name]Kate[/name], even more knowing it’s a family name!

[name]Lola[/name] [name]Claire[/name] is cute to

[quote=lainers08]Thanks for all of your replies! I never thought of [name]Lola[/name] [name]Kate[/name] sounding like “locate”, but now that you mention it, yikes! We aren’t finding out the sex of our little one until [name]March[/name] but I’ve been struggling with the girl name dilemma, and wanted nameberry members help!

I, like some of you, am not totally content with [name]Elizabeth[/name] as a mn for [name]Claire[/name]. Any ideas for a better mn?

The final decision may come down to what she looks like (if she is a she). I was the spitting image of my grandma [name]Lola[/name] w/ dark brown hair & eyes. If she looks like my hubby (blonde/blue) I can’t imagine using [name]Lola[/name]! So [name]Claire[/name] it will have to be! Thanks again nameberry friends! Your help is greatly appreciated!

I think that [name]Claire[/name] is beautiful, and I really love [name]Claire[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]. I think it’s really elegant.

Some more you may like:

[name]Claire[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Madeleine[/name]/[name]Madeline[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Sophia[/name] (very popular, though)
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Victoria[/name]
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name]

Good luck!

[name]Edit[/name]: I forgot about your last name, [name]Isham[/name], when I wrote the middles above. (Sorry about that!) I loved the combos that ended in A, but with [name]Isham[/name], they don’t have the best flow.

I still love [name]Claire[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] more than any of the above with your last name.

Good luck!

[name]Lola[/name] [name]Kate[/name] is my choice. Very sassy. I know two [name]Claire[/name] Elizabeths and I think that there will be less lolas then there are Claires. [name]Rhys[/name] [name]Patrick[/name] very handsome.

Please Help!

[name]Lola[/name] [name]Kate[/name]- Grandmothers name was [name]Lola[/name] [name]Katherine[/name], [name]Kate[/name] seems to add a bit more of a modern aspect. Have always wanted to name a little girl after her…

Thanks for your opinions!

I like [name]Lola[/name] [name]Kate[/name] it is a much more interesting name than [name]Claire[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] which is a very conservative choice.

PS [name]Rhys[/name] [name]Patrick[/name] is a good choice

[jellybaby80]

I definately agree with [name]Rollo[/name], [name]Lola[/name] [name]Kate[/name] has my vote!

[pokemans]

i love them both,but i think i like [name]Lola[/name] [name]Kate[/name] more–especially if it honors your grandmother. [name]Claire[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] is cute,too,but i personally think that [name]Elizabeth[/name] is one of those been there,done that names. too overdone for my taste. my vote is [name]Lola[/name] [name]Kate[/name].

[name]Lola[/name] [name]Kate[/name]…love it!
