Help[Opinions] Re: Josephine
in reply to a message by Tracy E.
I love both Josephine and Josepha (joh-SEE-fuh or joh-SEH-fuh--say it a couple of times, it takes a bit to grow on you ;). Josefina's fine for someone else's kid. Josephina's too many syllables for my tastes.
The problem I have with Josephine Elizabeth is that Elizabeth is not all that exciting. Same with Grace--there's a yawner of a middle name.
Some ideas:
Josephine Rosa
Josephine Sparrow
Josephine Lilith
Josephine Audrey
Josephine Brooke
Josephine Carmen
Josephine Candace
Josephine Alice
Josephine Blanche
Josephine Cecily
Josephine Cecile
Josephine Charlotte
Josephine Asha
Josephine Brigitte
Josephine Clare
Josephine Isla
Josephine Echo
Josephine River
Josephine Luz
Josephine Marcia
Josephine Violet

I really wish people wouldn't use Elizabeth as a filler MN. I'm using it as a MN to honour my grandmother. It's so meaningful to me, but everyone turns up their nose at it because it's so common. It makes me sad. =(

I know! Elizabeth is my middle name; it was after my grandmother. Her name was actually Kathryn Elizabeth but went by Betty. So, in my case, it's definitely not a filler middle name. I hate meeting people who are like "OMG my middle name is Elizabeth too!" Cool, you weren't named after anyone, you're not special, get over it. lol, I'm just kidding, I'm mean, I know. :)

Haha, no, you're not mean - I feel that way too, a lot of the time! It's just such a shame. I wish some names would just be left for families, heh. Elizabeth is also my middle name, haha. But I was named for someone, obviously, I promise! ;)
