[name_f]Estelle[/name_f]! [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is lovely, but more common. We named our DD [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] in [name_u]June[/name_u].

[name_f]Estelle[/name_f]! So chic and has nickname options [name_f]Stella[/name_f], [name_f]Este[/name_f], [name_f]Elle[/name_f]… I prefer [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] in the middle.

[name_f]Estelle[/name_f] - not so much a fan of [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], sorry.

I live [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] better.

I like [name_f]Stella[/name_f]…so much fresher than [name_f]Estelle[/name_f]. [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] could work as a mn (I like it as a [name_f]Janis[/name_f] [name_m]Joplin[/name_m] reference), but like [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] it seems rather geriatric.

I choose [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]! It’s lovely.

[name_f]Estelle[/name_f]. I prefer [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] as a middle.

I totally agree with above!
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f] works as a middle for me… I’d prefer the name with meaning ‘pearl’, such as [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] Out of the two, [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] gets my vote [name_u]Love[/name_u] it, and so [name_f]Estella[/name_f] or [name_f]Estrella[/name_f] Beautiful name!

I love both names very much, and their two very different and delicious flavours.

[name_f]Pearl[/name_f] isn’t my own naming taste so I personally love [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] (nn [name_f]Essie[/name_f]), but both are truly beautiful.
