[name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] is gorgeous! From your list, I also like [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alice[/name].

Have you considered the name [name]Emilia[/name]?

[name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] is amazing! I also like [name]Emily[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] and [name]Verity[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] from your list, but [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] is definitely my favorite.

I think [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] is a great name. [name]Verity[/name] is sweet and has a great meaning. The V makes it seem elegant and modern. [name]Alexandra[/name] is a favorite of mine. It is so classic and pretty, and refreshing to hear in a world full of [name]Alexis[/name], [name]Alexa[/name], [name]Lexi[/name], [name]Lex[/name] and etc. I met one little girl named [name]Verity[/name], she was about 10 years old. She was a quiet, well mannered girl.

[name]Emily[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] (nn [name]Millie[/name]) - I prefer [name]Verity[/name]
[name]Verity[/name] [name]Alice[/name] - I prefer [name]Alexandra[/name]
[name]Verity[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] - I love this combo almost as much as [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name].
[name]Anya[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] - I like this combo a lot too. It has a completely different feel to me than [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] though.
[name]Amelie[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] (nn [name]Millie[/name]) - I don’t care for this combo even though I normally like alliteration.

To be honest, [name]Verity[/name] is way too out there for me, but then again, so are most names being discussed on this site, so take my opinion for what it’s worth. [name]Verity[/name] sounds like a soap opera character to me.

[name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] does have a fantastic flow and sounds absolutely beautiful. Personally, I don’t think [name]Alexandra[/name] is too boring for a first name, but [name]Alexandra[/name] [name]Verity[/name] does not have the same flow.

From your list, I like the sound of: [name]Emily[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] (nn [name]Millie[/name]), [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alice[/name], and [name]Anya[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] (I have such a soft spot for [name]Anya[/name]!).

I like pp’s suggestion of [name]Emilia[/name] and [name]Emilia[/name] [name]Verity[/name] has a wonderful flow and beautiful sound!

I love [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name]! It’s a little bit long, so I wouldn’t pair it with a long last name, but it’s sweet, strong, and feminine all at the same time.

I don’t particularly like [name]Verity[/name] or [name]Alexandra[/name], but I think they pair very well together.

Thanks for all your feedback guys! :slight_smile:

I have a daughter named [name]Alexandra[/name] ([name]Alex[/name]) and a cousin named her daughter [name]Verity[/name], which was a favorite of our [name]Nana[/name]. I love both names.

I voted love [name]Verity[/name], but not [name]Alexandra[/name], but honestly, if you could get to [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] as a compromise, I would totally go for it. It’s a gorgeous name, one a little girl would be super lucky to have–[name]Alexandra[/name] just wouldn’t be my first pick for a MN. [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Verity[/name] as a FN, though! Super sweet and unexpected.

I think the name is gorgeous! I also think [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alice[/name] is so sweet and pretty.

[name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] is gorgeous, and it’s a great compromise too. If you both love it, definitely use it!

Thanks for all your replys guys, I’m not going to give up on this one! Have to convince DH!! hehe :slight_smile:

[name]Verity[/name] is a little much for me. I always think “severity” even though I know the two aren’t related. That being said, I think [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] has an amazing flow. I’d picture someone who is edgy and modern but still has a sense of history.

Maybe if your DH is skeptical you could think of a part-time nickname option? Maybe something that he could call her while he’s getting used to [name]Verity[/name] on its own?

I think [name]Verity[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] is oh-so-beautiful! I’ve never met a [name]Verity[/name], but I really like the name and love its meaning (“truth”). I think [name]Alexandra[/name] is a lovely and regal middle name and is wonderful with [name]Verity[/name]. :slight_smile:

I like [name]Verity[/name] a lot! I knew a [name]Verity[/name] in high school, and she seemed to really enjoy her name.
