This or that (middles)

Name Advice

Hi everyone!!

Needed the distraction today, so was playing about with some combos! Not always my normal style, but that’s the fun of it!

Obligatory disclaimer that this is all just for fun and there are no real-life babies or real-life implications with any of these names.

Which of these options do you like best?

This or that (or maybe this) - and no need to do them all if you strongly dislike a name! Just skip over it :)

  • Daisy Charlotte, Daisy Magenta, or Daisy Estella? (nn Daisy-Chains)

  • Lois Christiana or Lois Felicity? (nn Lolo)

  • Jilly-Mae Charlotte, Jilly-Mae Ophelia, Jilly-Mae Violet, or Jilly-Mae Viola? (nn Jae, Jilly, Jill or JJ) (I know Ophelia possibly flows least well but I am still kind of leaning to it?)

  • Lucy Wilhelmina, Lucy Wilma, Lucy Agnes or Lucy Tabitha? Lucy Wilhelmina feels right but, too Dracula?)

  • Terrence Charles or Terrence Christopher? (nn Tez)

  • Stephanie Charlene or Stephanie Charlize? (nn Stephie)

  • Embla Phoebe or Embla Carys?

  • Kerrigan Lily, Kerrigan Phoebe, Kerrigan Poppy, Kerrigan Rose or Kerrigan Maeve?

  • Tallulah Ocean or Tallulah Mabel? (nn Lulu or Tully)

  • Amelie Veronica, Amelie Ramona, Amelie Verona, Amelie Ruth, or Amelie Rosaline?

  • Jarrett Cody, Jarrett Zachary, or Jarrett Wesley?

  • Carys Tallulah or Carys Opal?

  • Aleesha Storm, Aleesha Mirabelle, Aleesha Tiffany, or Aleesha Jazmin/Jazzmyn?

  • Micky Ralph, Micky Jasper or Micky Rufus?

  • Reef Julian or Reef Elliot?

  • Hugo Wystan or Hugo Florian?

  • Brynmor Silas, Brynmor Elias, Brynmor Franklin?

A bonus question for those who need the distraction or entertainment too

If you were able to pick up to five of your favourite first names on this list, what middle names would you choose to give them yourself?

Thank you to anyone who chooses to comment :heart: have the best day you can! You’re all awesome :slight_smile:
