    Opinions please

    Just after a opinions on a name

    We're still throwing around ideas for our baby's name (I thought we had it sorted but......)

    DH made a comment the other night about middle name choice for our girls pick (we will have 2 middle names). What are your thoughts on AMY GRACE - his comment was it sounds too much like Amazing Grace - these will be middle names - so not really used all that often - and fits really well after our first name choice. Amy won't be changed - but I am open to suggestions for Grace (his other thought was Amy Patricia Frances as middle names - have no idea where this comes from - and I'm really against it as it just doesn't "go" with our first name choice as well as I just don't like them. Our first name choice ends in the "ah" sound.

    TIA.

    I like Amy Grace, both are 'pretty' names and they work together. Not too sure on Amy Patricia Frances.

    I agree that Amy Grace is a lot like Amazing Grace, but I still think it's sweet! As you said it's not as if it will be called by all names on a daily basis (except when she's in trouble of course! )
    Here are few options I thought up anyways -

    Amy Bree
    Amy Kate (or Caitlin)
    Amy Leigh
    Amy Pearl

    I'm not much of a fan of Amy Patricia Frances.
    I wish you all the best!

    I like Amy Grace. If you think it looks too much like 'Amazing Grace' (which is okay I think because it's not like Amazing Grace has any negative connotations!) then you could try Aimee or Amie or Amee...

    Im not keen on more than one middle name, but, I do like the sound of Amy Grace. Yeah, if that were the first and second name then it might be a bit too much like Amazing Grace, but I dont mind them as middle names
