    Order my names please :)

    I'm having a sudden crisis with my chosen names for Cookie. I've already picked what it will be - but since s/he's going to have two middle names, I'm not sure which order they should go in. So, which do you like more from these?

    Amelia...

    • Margaret Tenielle
    • Tenielle Margaret

    Oscar...

    • Francis Justin
    • Justin Francis

    Context for all our middles:

    Tenielle: My name. My mum and I both have our mums' names as our middle name. I always said I was going to carry on this tradition with my first daughter (just in case I don't get a second.)

    Margaret: My nan's name. I thought of it when pregnant with Ianto, because he was due in her birth month and I'd realised that she hadn't had any of her descendants named after her (as opposed to my pa, who has no less than four, maybe five.) She was one of the first to find out I was pregnant with Cookie, long before I planned to tell anyone. She died suddenly when I was eight weeks along. I still can't believe it. I never got to tell her I planned to give my daughter her name as a middle.

    Justin: Scott's family tradition thingie for boys is that they all have surnames starting with J. Justin is one of the very few he agreed on when I threw a heap of J names at him. I'm not 100% sure I like it, but we agree on something and that's all that matters

    Francis: My nan again. Her middle name was Frances, and I really really want this bub to have her name in part, so we simply changed it to the male version. There's the danger that my uncle may think we've taken his name (his birth name is Francis, which he hates, and goes by Bill) but hopefully I'll be able to rectify that easily.
