That would be a lovely tradition :D Do it!!! I think the Esmae spelling is so pretty. I had it on my list but my DH was a bit anti old fashioned names :(

Oh DH loves it. So it's now the top of our list! Thanks hun! Isla and Esmae sound and look so cute together too.
I like Esmae Emilie, Esmae Audrey and Esmae Penelope now. But, I'm still open to more names, so any other suggestions welcome!
So far my other name looks like Tenielle Naomi Charlotte :rofl:
Esmae Emilie for sure ;)
Although Tenielle Naomi Charlotte would definately be a winner :D
Esmae Emilie or Esmae Emily is lovely. I normally prefer Emily, but the other spelling looks lovely with that first name.
Other combinations could be:
Esmae Rose
Esmae Grace
Esmae Joy
Esmae Pearl
Esmae Edith
Esmae Ruby
Esmae Susannah (Susannah means lily)
Does Isla-Mae have a middle name or is Mae her middle name?
Technically it's her full name, like mine, but I mostly drop the -Mae and just treat it like a middle name, I assume Isla will too.
My absoloute favourite is Audrey. DH won't let me have it so please use it for me :D
Esmae Genevieve has a nice ring to it too ;)
Oooh i like following on the "Mae" theme :)
Out of your list Audrey is my fav, was on my girl lists too! Amity is my least favourite.
Love them all (esp Audrey) but Esme reminds me of Esme Watson from A Country Practice! (yeah I'm old) haha
or.. you could name her Melissa because you know what that stands for!!
Either way I am so happy for you. xxx
Seeing the Mae is a second name thing, would you use Esmae as the middle name? It just seems to fit right there for me, but if you love it then use it as a first name of course!
I like Audrey Esmae or Emilie Esmae.
I love Esme and Audrey! They were on my list, but DH said no.. I was going all cluck-cluck over an adorable newborn in the supermarket today (as you do lol) and her name was - not sure how it was spelt - but it was pronnounced Am-millie. Might be an alternative to Emillie? I thought it was absolutely gorgeous. Congratulations btw!
Thanks guys! :grouphug: DH really likes Esmeralda, he's big on giving full names and then using nicknames, not naming nicknames itms. I like Esmeralda a lot, and we'll just use Esmae most of the time :) If we go with that name, that is :p
Loooove evangeline or emilie! I had both of these on my list when pregnant with Chloe, vito'd by DH of course lol
Esmae is gorgeous, but then I'm partial to it with a Scarlett Esme myself!
I like Esmerelda:) You could use Mae as the middle name, then when you are using Esmae as a NN you are combining them.
Solange
Freya
Agnes
Molly (I like Molly Mae)
A couple of names that need revising are Eartha and Elvira
I like Isolde, but doubt DH would go for it. Are you ok with another 'I' name? Irene is lovely too.
