    Girls middle name order help please..

    Hi girls!

    We have chosen our little Princess's name but can't decide on the order of the two middle names..

    First name is Scarlett
    Middle names are Bailey Isabelle - Both family names that mean alot to us so pretty much non negotiable.

    Our last name starts with H and has 3 syllables. It also has an LY in the middle of it pronounced lee which I am worried will clash with Bailey if we use that immediately before surname...

    Obviously we have lots of time to decide but would love to know which you ladies prefer?

    Scarlett Bailey Isabelle H______

    Or

    Scarlett Isabelle Bailey H______

    I agree with the other girls, and seriously how often are you going to say both middle names and your surname together.

    Thanks so much girls!

    So, probably me being stupidly picky and over analyzing but you do you think the double T in Scarlett and the double L in Isabelle look funny being so close??

    Yea, I know... Prob way over analyzing but I just want it to be perrrrrrfect y'know?! Ha x

    Thanks hun! This is actually how we've been saying it all this time but I do love the Isabelle more than the Bailey and I've noticed slot of the time the second middle name is dropped off in some things and I don't want to lose the Isabelle hence the change of mind!

    Argh... I thought choosing the names was supposed to be the hard part haha!

    Scarlett Isabelle Bailey is great!

    If you're worried about the double letters then maybe use the original spelling of "Scarlet"?

    Im another going against the grain here lol. Scarlette Bailey Isabelle flows alot better than Scarlette Isabelle Bailey

    I think its fine having 2 "t"s and 2 "l"s and actually looks nice with Bailey in between the 2 names with double letters too

    I spelt Scarlett wrong sorry, though have you thought about spelling it Scarlette? It goes nicely with Isabelle i think, sort of evens it out if that makes sense?

    Scarlett Bailey Isabelle H______ I think Bailey is softened by the two quit feminine names either side of it and rolls nicely off the tongue

    Or

    Scarlett Isabelle Bailey H______ Bailey sounds like a bit of a last name in this one and ppl may think it's a hyphenated last name.

    Of course its all up to what you like the best

    She will be gorgeous!!!!!

    Bailey Isabelle for me
    And there will only be a handful f time where her entire name is said like christening, wedding, her birth!
    My 5yr old ds keeps questioning a preschool why they don't say his middle name just his first and last

    Thanks girls! I think we might stick with the Bailey Isabelle. Bailey is a family surname and does sound funny to me like it's hyphenated when put last next to our surname.. I also think it rolls better despite Isabelle being the prettier name and sounding so nice straight after Scarlett..

    Oh I really like the double 'TT' spelling of Scarlett also..

    Thanks so much for your input ladies! Really appreciate it

    Those who know me on Facebook please hush for now as we're trying to keep her name a surprise until after she's born obviously.

    Thanks so much girls!
