[Opinions] Daphne
What do you think, and what middle name would you pair it with?
Replies
It's it a great name, certainly, but I'm thinking breakout hit in about two years. Makes a wonderful sister for all those new Iris and Violets out there. Too nice a sister.
Also...this may just be me, but I usually 'play' with names, and Daphne is too close to "Dafty" for me to ever call my own daughter (I can't use Cecily either- I'd call her Silly for sure. Calling you children Dafty and Silly would be one for the therapist's couch. Come to think of it, though, Daphne Cecilia's not a bad combo...)

Yah.
I was talking to ~Xander about it last night, and he remarked that he would think of Scooby-Doo every time he used it. :-D
Hopefully, whomever I do end marrying will be much more open-minded to different names!

When I considered Daphne (strongly when I was pregnant with Will and slightly when I was pregnant with Finn), I was thinking of Daphne Elspeth.
It's been on my list for ages now; it's a wonderful name.
I like the Daphne Carys suggestion.

Daphne Rosalyn
Daphne Annabel

Daphne Clarissa

I've only met one Daphne so far in my life, and the name is really starting to grow on me because of her (her mn is Elise, by the way). I really like it. The connection to mythology makes it more appealing to me. =)

It's one of my favorties but I'm already feeling wary that it's a chart climber. I'm seeing it posted too much at this site, and other name sites I visit.
I love Daphne! I think I would go with Daphne Imogen.

Would my dad quite happy, though I would spell Karis for him. (From the Greek word)
I also love:
Daphne Elisabeth
Daphne Celeste
Daphne Helen - though with the surname I have in mind, it's a toung-twister
Daphne Charlotte- my favorite
It's weird - Daphne just popped into my head today and I realized what a sweet, beautiful name it was. It's fairly uncommon, too.
