[name]LOVE[/name] [name]Helena[/name]! I think I like the sound of it better with [name]Pearl[/name] in the middle (but [name]Pearl[/name] is also my feisty spunky little Grandma’s name, so I’m maybe a little bit biased). [name]Opal[/name] feels a bit clunky to me, like it doesn’t flow as well with the 2 vowels (end of [name]Helena[/name] and O right next to it) back to back. [name]Rosalind[/name] is my next favourite. Good nn potential there.

I like [name]Helena[/name] [name]Opal[/name] best. It has the best flow [name]IMO[/name]. [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Ingrid[/name] just seems a little choppy to me and I am not a fan of [name]Lucinda[/name], though I do prefer [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] to [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Agnes[/name] :slight_smile:

Well my main issue with middle names is that there’s a trend in DH’s family that the initials spell out a word. Our last initial is B, so [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Ingrid[/name]= RIB, [name]Helena[/name] [name]Opal[/name]= [name]HOB[/name], [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Agnes[/name]=LAB. I’m not dead set on continuing the tradition but DH would really like to. And btw, [name]Rosalind[/name] would go by [name]Ros[/name], [name]Helena[/name] would probably go by [name]Nell[/name] or [name]Hallie[/name], and [name]Lucinda[/name] would go by [name]Indie[/name].

I like [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] the best, [name]Lucinda[/name] and [name]Pearl[/name] are both fantastic names and it has a great flow! [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Ingrid[/name] sounds so clunky, the ‘in’ sound in both names is too much and they both have a ‘d’ ending. [name]Helena[/name] [name]Opal[/name] sounds pretty good, but I think the names do run together a little bit since the first name ends with a vowel sound and the middle name starts with a vowel sound. Same with [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Agnes[/name]… You could try [name]Helena[/name] [name]Pearl[/name], [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Pearl[/name], [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Agnes[/name], or [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Opal[/name].

I chose [name]Lucinda[/name]. I think [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] is a nice combo and while I don’t like [name]Agnes[/name] I like the edginess of it but I would go with something like [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Marion[/name], [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Harriet[/name], something that has an edgy feel to it that isn’t overly girly.

Ok well if I were ignoring my hubby’s family tradition of the word-initals, my choices would be [name]Helena[/name] [name]Margot[/name] & [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Pearl[/name]. Problem is, I cannot come up with any combo I love other than [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Ingrid[/name]. Any suggestions that’d make you love [name]Rosalind[/name] more?

[name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Juliet[/name]

[name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] is pretty, but it doesn’t roll off the tongue like I’d like. Hmmm… What about [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Ginevra[/name]? [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Junia[/name]? [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Alice[/name]? [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Kate[/name]? [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Daphne[/name]? [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Iris[/name]? [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Gwyneth[/name]?

I don’t know, I’m running out of ideas. Nothing seems to flow right but I love, love, love [name]Rosalind[/name] and don’t want to give it up. [name]Helena[/name] [name]Margot[/name] & [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] were no-brainers for me. Why is pairing [name]Rosalind[/name] so difficult?!

I have it! [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Margot[/name]!

I love [name]Rosalind[/name]!

[name]Love[/name] love love [name]Rosalind[/name].
[name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Isolde[/name]
[name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Irene[/name]
[name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Monet[/name]

I voted for [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Ingrid[/name] and [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Agnes[/name]. [name]Rosalie[/name] [name]Ingrid[/name] sounds less heavy than [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Ingrid[/name], so I think I’d go with [name]Rosalie[/name].

I love the flow of [name]Helena[/name] [name]Opal[/name] best.

@rollo- [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Margot[/name] is stunning, however I prefer [name]Helena[/name] [name]Margot[/name] and in case I have two girls , I’d like to keep [name]Helena[/name] [name]Margot[/name] in the wings in case I get to use it.

These are all pretty great! Hm. [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] sounds the best, but I don’t really want to pick it. I want to pick [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Agnes[/name], my own new combination! So, what names did you have? [name]Rosalind[/name], [name]Helena[/name], and [name]Lucinda[/name], and then [name]Ingrid[/name], [name]Opal[/name], [name]Pearl[/name], and [name]Agnes[/name]. Well, I adore [name]Rosalind[/name] and [name]Helena[/name] together, but I prefer [name]Lucille[/name] with those two, and then maybe something like [name]Phoebe[/name], [name]Penelope[/name], or [name]Pauline[/name]. Yes, a P name! I like [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Agnes[/name], [name]Helena[/name] [name]Pearl[/name], [name]Lucille[/name] [name]Ingrid[/name], and [name]Pauline[/name] [name]Opal[/name], or maybe [name]Pauline[/name] [name]Eva[/name]? [name]Rosy[/name], [name]Nelly[/name], [name]Lucy[/name], and [name]Polly[/name]!

Okay, I got a little carried away…

[name]Lemon[/name]

I could get behind [name]Lucinda[/name], but [name]Agnes[/name] of a mn throws me off and makes me think of [name]Agnes[/name] of God.

I chose [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Pearl[/name]! I am not a huge fan of [name]Agnes[/name]. I think I chose [name]Lucinda[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] because they are both such beautiful names, and I have always had a soft spot for [name]Lucinda[/name]. I love the other names too, I really like your taste!

Ooh I do like the sound of [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Irene[/name]. That might be a contender.

I like [name]Rosalind[/name] the best… but I’m not crazy about the middle name [name]Ingrid[/name] paired with it. [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Ingrid[/name] has a repeating “in” sound. I think you could definitely still use it if you love it, but I like [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] or [name]Rosalind[/name] [name]Opal[/name] better. Good luck!
