Bah! I’ve been thinking about this forever and nothing jumps out at me! My favorite is probably [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] [name]Ann[/name], for it’s meaning, but I don’t think it’s “the one”. I’d kind of like a J name as the first middle, because I like the initials M.J. But would also love to have [name]Elizabeth[/name] in there because it’s my hubby’s beloved grandmother AND my mom’s favorite name (and probably mine, too). Problem is that [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] seems very long.
Also, what do you think of [name]Marigold[/name]? It’s been my favorite for a few weeks now (that’s a long time, for me!). I’d call her [name]Goldie[/name], but love the fact that if she doesn’t like that when she’s older she has the option of [name]Mary[/name], or even [name]Margo[/name].
His side:
[name]Elizabeth[/name]
[name]Ruth[/name]
[name]Lucretia[/name]
[name]Elaine[/name]
[name]Mary[/name] (covered with [name]Marigold[/name])
Want one name from each side, or a reasonable variation of them ([name]Willa[/name] for [name]William[/name], or [name]Lucy[/name] for [name]Lucretia[/name], for instance). Also would prefer the name from my side in the first middle slot, though that isn’t the most important.
Thanks, [name]Jemma[/name]! I adore your name, by the way. Those are all great combos, I REALLY [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Joy[/name]/[name]Jean[/name]/[name]Jane[/name]!
[name]Love[/name] [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Jane[/name]! [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]June[/name] is also adorable and [name]IMO[/name] adds a little quirky to the traditional (a new favorite thing I love to do with names lately!)
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Cecilia[/name] [name]Ruth[/name]
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eleanor[/name] [name]Kate[/name]
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Cecily[/name] (like [name]Cecilia[/name]) [name]Rose[/name] - all very pretty to my mind!
I love the name [name]Marigold[/name], it was my much loved [name]Nana[/name]'s name. It sounds sunny and happy to me, and isn’t overused (to some of my friends it is before unheard of) I also like that it has afew shortening options, my [name]Nana[/name] was simply called [name]Mar[/name] as an adult (sounds like Ma) but I dont know if this occured with Grandchildren?? I also like (sounds like) [name]Mar[/name]-EE as a nn. I am currently expecting and am quite sure I will use [name]Marigold[/name] as a middle name, my other Grandmother was an [name]Amelia[/name], so I have two (I think) lovely choices.
I think because [name]Marigold[/name] is such a classic name there are a multitude of possible middle names that will suit. In your list I tend to lean toward to one syllable names, but also like [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name]
All the best
I love [name]Marigold[/name]! I like [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Joy[/name] or [name]Jane[/name], [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eleanor[/name] [name]Ruth[/name]. For a three-name combo I prefer than one of the middles be only one syllable, for flow:
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Adeline[/name] [name]Rose[/name]
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Joy[/name] [name]Elaine[/name]
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Elspeth[/name] [name]Joy[/name]
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Jean[/name]
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Lucretia[/name] [name]Joy[/name]
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Adeline[/name] [name]Ruth[/name]
My daughters name is [name]Marigold[/name]!
I [name]LOVE[/name] it! So much so that no other names compare for our next daughter!
We call our [name]Marigold[/name], [name]Goldie[/name] for short. Some people call her [name]Mary[/name]. But mainly [name]Marigold[/name].
From the posts I like [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]June[/name] or [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Wilhelmina[/name].
Thanks so much everyone! I love all of your suggestions!
Peach, I agree about one of the middle names being one syllable, I think that sounds a lot nicer than having three long names! I especially like the second middle being one syllable.
[name]How[/name] is [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Kate[/name]? Or [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Kate[/name]?
Oh, and I am so glad to hear you have a daughter named [name]Marigold[/name] and you love it! OUt of curiosity, how old is she, does she like it? [name]How[/name] do other people react to it? And where do you live?
I think that the flow of of [name]Marigold[/name] followed by a three syllable name ending in a then followed by a one syllable name sounds as good as it gets!
I think that’s why I love [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Kate[/name] the most
Also, I saw that another poster suggested [name]Lucille[/name] instead of [name]Lucy[/name]. I’m not a big [name]Lucille[/name] fan but it gave me the idea of [name]Lucia[/name], so you get that lovely a ending.
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Kate[/name] - this has to get my vote!
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Kate[/name] - [name]Lucy[/name] is so simple and beautiful. The flow isn’t as wonderful as with [name]Eliza[/name], but it is still good.
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eleanor[/name] [name]Kate[/name] - I love [name]Eleanor[/name], but the flow of this isn’t as great as [name]Eliza[/name] and [name]Lucy[/name].
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] [name]Kate[/name] - very nice, but the first two names together are a bit of a mouthful …
I also adore [name]Pearl[/name] for a one-syllable name - [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] has such vintage class to it, to my ears, as does [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Pearl[/name].
I think the 1st middle ending in ‘a’, followed by one syllable is perfect! Good thinking!
My husband and I absolutely [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Pearl[/name]! So gorgeous! And my dad’s middle name is [name]Earl[/name], so [name]Pearl[/name] can honor him! [name]Eliza[/name] and [name]Pearl[/name] have been favorites of mine for a long time, I can’t believe I never thought of that combo, it is completely perfect!
