Re: Elizabeth?
in reply to a message by Catriona
I like Elizabeth, Rose, Jane, Catalina, Juliette (that spelling only), and Helena.
I dislike naming children after literary characters, as they aren't real, and I think honoring should be reserved for family only. So, if you're only using Elizabeth because of the book, then I'd take it off of the list. Since Roma is a family name, I'd suggest using it as the middle name.

it is also my mothers name
What is...
Are you speaking of Elizabeth? Since you didn't mention that, I assumed Elizabeth was only for the literary character, and since you only mentioned the literary character, it feels (to me) like that is the only reason you'd use the name. :::shrugs:::

Elizabeth is also my mothers name so it would be honoring both my mum and my favorite character
