Matilda, nn Tilly. Matilda Pearl, Matilda Eve and Matilda Phoebe are all lovely combos imo.

Easy: there's already a Jo and an Elinor in my family. So, Matilda. Never thought about it but it's a nice enough name with good history and a pleasant sound. Not keen on Matty or Tilly so she'd have to be Tilda - like the rice :)

---

Matilda Lucy.

I would do Josephine. I like Matilda too but Josephine sounds more gentle.

Eleanor. I think it's okay while I dislike Josephine and Matilda. Pretty simple.

---

Eleanor Rose! Took me hours to come up with that! Where's my bonus points? Okay, I'll take the F for effort, but I still want the bonus points.

Matilda!

---

Eleanor loses points because I don't know the meaning. Also, the *nor sound doesn't do much for me (ignore, snore), I am tired of seeing El* names (Elizabeth, Ella, Elsa, Elsie, Elena, Eliana), and she seems a bit stuck-up.

---

Josephine makes me think of sepia photos and my favorite American Girl doll, but I like Joseph so much that the feminine version would just seem like a letdown.

---

Matilda makes me think of woodcarvings (I don't know why?), a kid with magical powers, and Pablo Neruda. Plus, the meaning is pretty awesome, which counts for a lot with me. I do prefer other versions of it, but out of these 3, Matilda wins.

Eleanor is my choice, because I don't like the other two names.

---

Eleanor Amy
Eleanor Blythe
Eleanor Carrie
Eleanor Daphne
Eleanor Greta
Eleanor Holly
Eleanor Ivy
Eleanor Jana
Eleanor Katherine
Eleanor Mira
Eleanor Opal
Eleanor Rue
Eleanor Sylvie
Eleanor Thea
Eleanor Zola

I like all of them, but I mainly like Josephine and Eleanor when pronounced in English. So Matilda would be my choice, wince I like it in Swedish as well.

---

Matilda Anna Leonora, Anna being a honoring name.

They ‘re all lovely names, but I’ll pick Eleanor because it’s the most classy:

You did pick some hard ones in earlier posts, haha. I like this game though, hard or not.

---

I pick Eleanor. None are absolute favorites but I like this one the best. I wouldn't be heartbroken with any of these names, though... Not like I would be with Kaylee or something.

---

Eleanor Susannah?

---

Can't decide if that's too much.

---

Eleanor Violet

Josephine Sara. I love the softness of Josephine and Josie is a cute nn. I also knew an amazing nurse called Josephine, so I have positive associations as well.

---

Matilda Jane would be my second choice. It is very regal and brings to mind Empress Matilda.

I already have a daughter named Elva so Eleanor would be too close. I like both Josephine and Matilda, but even though my sister-in-law's brother already has a daughter named Mathilda, I'd lean towards Matilda.

---

Combo would be Matilda Pietronella Odilia, maybe Matilda Pietronella Constanza (MNs bc of honouring)

Hi!
I'm going to share my combos first. (Because I can) :)

---

Josephine Amy
Eleanor Christine
Matilda Rose

---

My favorite out of all of these is Matilda Rose. I just love how old fashioned and sweet it sounds. My daughter's nickname can be Mili. Which I love. (Pronounced like Milly).

---

My second favorite is Josephine Amy. I love the nickname Josie and how Josephine is long and elegant while Amy is short and sweet.

---

My third favorite (can't say least favorite) is Eleanor Christine. I personally prefer Eleanora. But a cute nickname is Ellie.

---

So there's my thoughts.
