Help please!! am 34 weeks pg with my 2nd DC, first girl. I keep thinking I've found the perfect name for her and get all excited- then think it through and it doesn't quite 'go'. Surname is a W, two (similar sounding)syllables.
My very favourite name is Romy, and it goes with the surname... but I've already got a Joseph who is more of a Joe IYSWIM... Romy and Joe?! too similar?
I also like Maisie, but my mum says it's not a 'grown up's' name, and can't imagine a teenage Maisie.
Isabella is pretty, but the middle name will be Beth-doesn't quite 'flow' does it? Can you get away with two middle names with a long first and last name?
I have also considered Lily and Scarlet.
Any thoughts?
Sorry for rambling...

thanks everyone x

S'pose if you're shouting them in the park it might be mistaken for Romeo - but I think Romy and Joe sound ok......................not so sure about Romy Beth though

No...Beth is a family name which goes back five generations so can't really NOT use it. Maybe Romy something Beth?

How about Romilly with Romy as NN? Romilly Beth sounds good to me.
