Baby Names

Iris?

DH has said he likes Iris, what do you think? It's growing on me, I actually really like it. 

Middle names? I've thought of Iris Antonia, Iris Clementine and Iris Wilhelmina.  


ETA: Those middle names aren't definite :) Suggest some if you have any ideas!

Re: Iris?

  • Love Iris! Iris Clementine is cute. A longer middle name would sound nice to balance the shortness of the first name. Then again, Iris Jane (just for an example of a one syllable middle name) sounds lovely, too. So you could probably go either way. 
  • I really like Iris, but I don't like any of the middle names you listed. If I had to pick I would pick Iris Antonia.

  • I like Iris. Don't care for any of your mn's... Guess it depends on last name, but Iris  (short mn) sounds better to me then Iris (long name)

     

  • LOVE Iris.

    I think Iris Antonia is pretty, but really dislike the other two. Are there any family names you might want to use?

  • I love Iris. And I think it goes with a multitude of middle names. Could you pair it with one of the other names you love that your H doesn't like as a fn? He might not mind your more classic names in the mn spot. Iris Elizabeth, or Iris Josephine, or Iris Katherine. Really, I think a lot would go well with it. :)

  • I love Iris! It's my sister's name and it's pretty amazing that we have yet to meet another one and she's 14. I don't really like Iris with your middle name choices. I would like Iris Clara, Iris Cecilia, Iris Valentina, Iris Elizabeth...

  • Love Iris.

    Partial to Antonia (see sig pic, but we used it b/c it is family name for us)

  • Iris is one of the names we are thinking about too...but do you think it's going to be very popular in the near future?

  • Sorry I don't care for Iris, just NMS. Like Antonia for MN, but neither of the other ones you listed.

    Iris is my top pick for a girl.  We will go with Iris Eleanor (DH's grandma Eleanor raised him so that part is set in stone) which I think is quite pretty.  

    I know a sib set named Iris and Eleanor :-) I LOVE Iris. I don't care for your middle name options.

  • I love Iris.  I'm a big fan of flower names.
