This is a hard one! I don’t particularly care for the middle name [name]Augusta[/name]. [name]Emmeline[/name] will spend her whole life being called [name]Emily[/name], which will get old fast. Also, [name]Phillipa[/name] is cute with the nickname [name]Pippa[/name] but less cute on its own. My choices are:
I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Emmeline[/name] [name]Augusta[/name]. [name]Love[/name] love love. [name]Emmeline[/name] is one of my all time favorites, and [name]Augusta[/name] pairs well with it.
My second choice is [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Augusta[/name], although I’d prefer [name]Penelope[/name] with [name]Violet[/name] or [name]Margot[/name]. [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Augusta[/name] is a bit of a mouthful to me, whereas [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Margot[/name] or [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Violet[/name] flows a tad better.
[name]Philippa[/name] [name]Violet[/name] is my third. I’m not crazy about the name [name]Philippa[/name]. For some reason, when I see it written, I really like it. But when I say it aloud, it sounds funny. I do love it paired with [name]Violet[/name]. It has a very British feel to me.
[name]Evangeline[/name] [name]Margot[/name] is my fourth. [name]Evangeline[/name] is just one of those names that’s never caught on for me. [name]Evie[/name] is a cute nickname, I love [name]Margot[/name], but [name]Evangeline[/name]… it just doesn’t appeal to me. However, my opinions aside, it’s a lovely combo and has a recognizable sound without being overused (sidenote - that’s part of why I like [name]Emmeline[/name] so much. It’s a fresher take on [name]Emily[/name]/[name]Emma[/name]. [name]Evangeline[/name] is likely the same for [name]Evelyn[/name]/[name]Eva[/name].)
I think you have four excellent choices here. I’m quite biased because two of them ([name]Emmeline[/name] and [name]Penelope[/name]) are two of my favorites and all three of your middle name choices are favorites of mine as well.
I like these 2 the best:
[name]Evangeline[/name] [name]Margot[/name] - [name]Eva[/name], [name]Annie[/name], [name]Lina[/name]
[name]Philippa[/name] [name]Violet[/name] - [name]Pippa[/name], [name]Pia[/name], [name]Philly[/name]
I think both of those would go well with [name]Leo[/name]
Thanks for the replies! I pronounce [name]Emmeline[/name] with a long I to rhyme with [name]Caroline[/name] so I’m not too concerned about it sounding like [name]Emily[/name].
[name]Do[/name] you guys think it will get confused?
Please keep your thoughts going I need some help deciding!!
They are all awesome but I am going to have to go with [name]Evangeline[/name] [name]Margot[/name]. [name]Philippa[/name] and [name]Penelope[/name] are both really great choices too. The only one I don’t really care for is [name]Emmeline[/name] honestly. None of the [name]Em[/name]- names have ever really appealed to me.
I won’t be much help because I [name]LOVE[/name] your combos. We have extremely similar taste. Our names are set on family tradition and culture and include an [name]Augusta[/name] as our next girl, [name]Phillipa[/name] if we are lucky with another after that and a second boy if we ever get one named [name]Rupert[/name] [name]Leopold[/name].
Out of the first name choices I prefer [name]Philippa[/name] and like [name]Emmeline[/name] second best, the other two I’m not too keen on as the full name but like the nicknames that they could use, as for a middle my favourite is [name]Margot[/name], which is lovely. You have a lot of style in your naming, good luck choosing the right name
I [name]ADORE[/name] [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Augusta[/name]. I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Augusta[/name], I don’t care which first name you use, as long as you use [name]Augusta[/name] in the middle, I rarely see anyone considering it.
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Augusta[/name] is stunning, love this!
[name]Emmeline[/name] is actually my favourite first name on the list, but I don’t like [name]Augusta[/name] with it. Maybe [name]Emmeline[/name] [name]Margot[/name]?
[name]Evangeline[/name] [name]Margot[/name] and [name]Phillipa[/name] [name]Violet[/name] are beautiful too.
To be honest you can’t go wrong with any of the first names on your list and I actually can’t choose or seperate them because I love them all. What nicknames would you use?
[name]Leo[/name] & [name]Evangeline[/name] / [name]Leo[/name] & [name]Penelope[/name] are my favourite sibsets.
