Re: Eleanor, Isabella, Marguerite (m)
in reply to a message by Starfish and Coffee
From those three, definitely Eleanor. I like it enough to use, and if I didn't like Helen even more, it would have been in with a real chance.
I also like Isobel (and Isabel, but a bit less) and Margaret. Not Isabella, and not Marguerite.
ETA sorry, brain went for a walk. Middle name for Eleanor ...
Eleanor Vickie Esme would give her 2 1/2 honouring names plus initials that spell Eve, the nn of my aunt Eva.
Eleanor Heather Jean ... I wanted an H name, also for honouring purposes, and Heather and Helen are the only ones I enjoy. Jean honours.
Eleanor Nancy Clare! Sheer frivolity.
Eleanor Alice Miranda? Not sure of those repeated a sounds; Eleanor Alice Belinda is better!
