Well my daughter is Leonora Catherine (after our grandmother's) but we exclusively call her Nora-Cate. So that would be my favorite. I also like Emma Claire but have no intention of using it, shoule we ever have another dd.

Love this!!

My daughter is Mary Jane after my late mother in law... and I've grown to love. DD2 is Elizabeth Josephine and we call her Betsy and occassionally Betsy Jo
When naming DD1, I was unsure of MJ so I tried to talk DH into Mary Alice, Mary Frances, Mary Catherine/Cate. Now I am happy with Mary Jane.
I think Ella works well as a first name for double firsts... Ella Cate, Ella Mae, etc.
Best friends and sisters... 24 months and 16 months
A woman at work, official name Nora Josephine, goes by Nora Jo. My SIL is Alice Anne, goes by her full name, Alice, and Ali. She has a separate mn. I also know a Mary Beth - that is her fn and mn.

Eliza Jo is on our list. I like nearly any Mary combination. Marianne is also on our list. We're spelling it like that, but I guess it's technically a double name.
I also love double names! Obviously, my favorite is my dd's name Shelby Kate. I also love Sarah Beth and Emmie Claire. DH likes Raelynn, but I think we are done with double names.I don't want to go overboard.

I've always been partial to Anna Claire.
Here's a site with lots of double names, if you'd like some ideas:

Michelle Louise.
I know it looks longish, but my dad used to call my sister this and it seemed to flow nicely.
