I don't think of Renesmee as an actual name, just a Twilight meme. I like Primrose mostly as a middle name.

I don’t like either one. If I had to choose I’d go with Primrose and use Rose or Rosie as a nickname. Renesmee is far to associated with Twilight.

They're both over-the-top verging on too much, but I kind of love that about them. However Renesmée looks more complete to me.

My 16 year old has just discovered Twilight and is a huge fan. We were talking about the name Renesmee a few days ago. We both dislike it very much. I do love Esme by itself and Renee (Renae) is my sister's name, it's not bad.Primrose I'd use for a cat maybe.

Esme is a family name, and Renee was a good friend who died in a car accident on honeymoon. I like them both, but only separately.Primrose: I'm not fond of Rose manes in gemeral, and who wants to be prim? Plus, I can't shake off the memory of a homicidal doctor in the UK who used to kill his elderly patients while doing house calls, steal their jewellery and take it home to his wife, Primrose, who cheerfully wore it. Not the fault of her name, of course, but still not something I like to think about.

Primrose is very beautiful Renesmee is so gorgeous but I'm not a fan of Twilight but I much prefer Renee.

Primrose is ok--it's strong and elegant.
I love the sound of Renesmee although I don't like the double "e" at the end, spelling-wise. Only thing I like about Twilight.

Primrose is very pretty. Prim. A pale pink, or maybe yellow.Renesmee genuinely isn't that bad. It sounds nice. Wren Esmé.

Together they definitely sound like teenage fangirl favorites from several years ago. Primrose additionally has a prissy, cliched Victorian-storybook sound. I think Renesmee actually has a rather attractive ring to it though it's a bit hard to sort out the sounds at first. When I first saw it I would have guessed it was a Hispanic or maybe Haitian creation.

I adore Primrose, it’s one of my favourite names. Renee and Esme are both gorgeous, but together it’s kinds naff.
