Here are our current options for our second daughter, sister to [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Katherine[/name] H—s (1 syllable last name). We are looking for something classic, a bit playful (to match with [name]Felicity[/name]'s playful feel) and not too popular:
While we love [name]Charlotte[/name], we don’t love the rising popularity of it.
Thoughts??
We are also open to other middle names, we just haven’t been able to come up with any that sound quite right. And [name]Elizabeth[/name] is a family name (I mean, whose family doesn’t have an [name]Elizabeth[/name] in it though?).
Ha Ha… I think there is an [name]Elizabeth[/name] in every family (I know many) now then about your name choices I think [name]Helen[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] would be a lovely choice.
I also think [name]Helen[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] is the best of your list, but I’d actually prefer [name]Elizabeth[/name] [name]Helen[/name], if you’re open to [name]Elizabeth[/name] as a first name. To get the playfulness you want, you could call her by one of its many nicknames. Other classic names with playful potential:
[name]Miranda[/name] (nn [name]Randi[/name] or [name]Randa[/name]; I think [name]Miranda[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] is gorgeous!)
[name]Francesca[/name] (nn [name]Frankie[/name]; I also had a friend named this who went by Chesca or Ches)
[name]Victoria[/name] (nn [name]Tori[/name], [name]Toria[/name], [name]Vicky[/name], etc)
[name]Abigail[/name] (nn [name]Abby[/name], [name]Abbey[/name], [name]Gail[/name])
[name]Katerina[/name] (might be too close to [name]Felicity[/name]'s mn of [name]Katherine[/name], but you can use the nn of [name]Rina[/name] or [name]Kate[/name])
I like [name]Helen[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] the best, although I do prefer [name]Helena[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]. I think [name]Felicity[/name] and just [name]Helena[/name] are perfect together, but seeing that it was suggested several times in your last thread, I’m guessing it doesn’t really interest you. [name]Helen[/name] just doesn’t have [name]Helena[/name]'s charm, imo, so in that case I think I’d pick [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] instead. I love [name]Charlotte[/name], and [name]Felicity[/name] and [name]Charlotte[/name] are so feminine and pretty together. I love it. [name]Harriet[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] nn [name]Hattie[/name] is so perfect, too, and [name]Felicity[/name] and [name]Harriet[/name] are perfect together. I think [name]Harriet[/name] might be the perfect blend between the more classic [name]Helen[/name] and the more whimsical, Shakespearean/literary, feminine [name]Helena[/name].
I absolutely love the name [name]Charlotte[/name] despite its rising popularity. I love the combo [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]. Classic and pretty
[name]Helen[/name] and [name]Hattie[/name]/[name]Harriet[/name] pale in comparison to [name]Felicity[/name]'s beauty. I think [name]Charlotte[/name] goes really well. I love both [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] and [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Alice[/name].
[name]Helen[/name] just doesn’t have [name]Helena[/name]'s charm, imo, so in that case I think I’d pick [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] instead. I love [name]Charlotte[/name], and [name]Felicity[/name] and [name]Charlotte[/name] are so feminine and pretty together. I love it. [name]Harriet[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] nn [name]Hattie[/name] is so perfect, too, and [name]Felicity[/name] and [name]Harriet[/name] are perfect together. I think [name]Harriet[/name] might be the perfect blend between the more classic [name]Helen[/name] and the more whimsical, Shakespearean/literary, feminine [name]Helena[/name].
