Lucy Louise?

Is that just cruel???? Louise has family meaning. We both like Lucy a lot!

Re: Lucy Louise?

  • Too much "Loo", IMO.

    Would you do Lucy Eloise?

    Use it if you like it. I love my daughter's middle name and sadly, she rarely uses it. (And it has alliteration too.)

  • It has the whole alliteration thing going on, but I definitely don't think it's cruel. I'd be tempted to say Lucy Lou a lot if it was a little girl I knew. I think you should go for it if you like it!

  • Eh, the alliteration might be a bit much... but it's just a middle name.  Not many people will know it, let alone call her "Lucy Louise."

  • I'm digging it.  I like the Southern alliterative feel.

    It's a bit much for me, but not bad. I would want to constantly call her Lucy Lou. But that's the southern girl in me :). For what it's worth, I think Lucy is a nice name!

  • My mother is Lucille Louise and I love her name. She goes by Lucy and she has never said a bad thing about her name. I say it's a pretty name.

    I enjoy the nn Lucy Lou. As soon as I saw the name, I kept saying "Lucy Lou! Lucy Lou!" In my head. Like PPs said, people don't have to know her middle name, she'll just be Lucy to pretty much everyone she meets.

    Thank you! Helps me to know another that has the name likes it. I never thought about Lucille.. Now I have to think about it lol.

    Love the name Lucy but too many "L's" what about a double middle name and putting another middle name if front of Louise?

  • I actually like it a lot! I like the alliteration, and I think Lucy Lou or Lu Lu are cute nn options that come from it.

    My DD is Johanna Joy and her nn is Jojo. Kind of same idea.

  • I don't mind the MN Louise at all.  I am not sure of the pairing with Lucy, though.

    Although, I am not a huge stickler on MNs since they aren't used too much IRL.

  • My biggest issue with it, is that I don't like Lucy. I just don't think it ages well. This is probably an unpopular opinion on this board. I love Louise though!

  • As a Lucy, I can tell you that she will be called Lucy Lou regardless.

  • Nms, bit too loo loo for me
  • Here's a thought.., what if you gave her Louise as a formal name and called her Lucy as a nickname? They're close enough that it isn't unreasonable.

    This saddens me.. I hate the nn Lou..
  • In general, I'm not a fan of alliterative first/last names.  But I don't mind them for first/middle names.  Especially when the middle name holds some significance more than "we like the name."  We tend not to use first and middle names together on a regular basis, and most people (other than family) won't even know her middle name.  I know an Evelyn Ellen and for years never knew her middle name.

  • I think its very cute. Lucy is one of my all time favorite names and love that Louise has family meaning. I know a little girl named Lola Lou and she's as adorable as can be. If you love the name, use it!
