We love the first name [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] but are having an especially hard time coming up with a middle name. I love [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] but it just seems like too much name. It is, as my husband put it, a “Scantron nightmare.” I would love to find a short middle name that would flow well with our last name (starts with M, 2 syllables, ends in -er).
Names that I love but are out for various reasons: [name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Ella[/name_f]
I am also hoping to avoid other botanical names and/or colors.
Any suggestions? Is [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] M—er too much name?
I don’t think it’s too much, but my son’s name is definitely a Scantron nightmare. Unless there’s a place for a second middle on there now. [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is gorgeous. Suggestions anyway:
I think [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is very pretty, though like your husband said it would be a scantron nightmare other than that though I think it would work. I would suggest something classic but relatively short like:
I just love [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] so much that we might have to go with it, length and all. We also really liked [name_f]Eve[/name_f] and [name_f]Bee[/name_f]!
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is absolutely lovely and when it rolls off the tongue, the syllable count rule is no longer in play.
Some of these suggestions are beautiful. [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] [name_f]Louise[/name_f] and [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] [name_f]Beth[/name_f] would be charming.
