We have decided to put TTC on hold for a bit, but I am still always thinking about names So my newest top two possible girl names for the future are Rose and Eliza. Both are family names, although Rose a more significant one (Rose is my little sister's middle name and my grandmother's name, Eliza was DH's great grandma). DS is Ames Wesley. So which do you prefer? Thanks!

Eliza Joy

or

Rose Gwendolyn

Well, my daughter's name is Eliza Jean, so Eliza Joy definitely gets my vote! I'm not a huge fan of one syllable names, but Rose Gwendolyn is still pretty. Have you considered Eliza Rose?

I like Eliza Joy.

So funny, Eliza Joy is on our list. Joy is a middle name that I love because it goes with almost anything.

I like how Eliza Joy sounds.

Eliza Joy, because I like Eliza and have never cared for any Rose names.

I was thinking it before I even started reading peoples' posts...

I like Eliza Rosa...

I'll be the odd man out and say Rose Gwendolyn. I like them both but think Rose goes better with Ames.

I don't really like Rose, so I'd use Joy with either first name, with a slight edge to Eliza.

Eliza Joy! That's adorable!

Rose Gwendolyn.

I love Rose, it's such a beautiful, soft, feminine name. Eliza in comparison sounds a lot harsher.

I love Eliza, but I don't care for Joy.

Rose Gwendolyn is pretty!

Cranang · July 2013

I've met a TON of Eliza's lately, so I'm not to keen on that name right now. And I don't think Rose Gwendolyn flows very nicely.

BUT, I think Gwendolyn Rose is a STUNNING name.

Why not Eliza Rose?

Thanks everyone! We talked about Eliza Rose, I was just hesitant to use Rose as a MN because it is so popular as one. Joy is a special name for me, so in all likelihood it will be the middle name if it flows at all with whatever FN we choose (obviously not really Rose).
