[Opinions] Olivia, Mélodie or Lucie?
Hi, I posted on here before, and I need your opinions again. My husband and I have short-listed 3 girls' names for our next daughter. She is due in April.
We have 1 daughter at the moment - Clara Isabelle
Which is your favorite, and if you could, please say why.
Olivia, Mélodie or Lucie?
As a side note, we are both French (if you hadn't guessed from the names).
For a middle name, we are contemplating Sophie, if we chose Olivia. Sophia is an option if we chose either of the other two.
Last name is Damery
Thankyou for your help!
Regards,
Leah

My vote is for Olivia :)
I like Mélodie the best personally, but I am not sure about how good it sounds with your last name.
Have you considered using Olivie? I like Olivia also; the only drawback is its popularity.
In English (as you may know), Lucie is always a pet form, and looks informal or familiar -- so if a significant part of her experience is expected to be in the English-speaking world, you might consider using Lucienne as a full name. You could still call her Lucie, I suppose, if that would be normal in French. If she's going to live most of her life in France, I don't suppose it matters. Anyway, Lucienne Damery sounds very nice, imo, as well as Lucie Damery.
All of these I like, in approximately this order:
Mélodie Sophia Damery
Lucienne Sophia Damery
Olivia Lucienne Damery
Olivie Sophia Damery
Lucie Sophia Damery
Lucie Olivia Damery

I think Mélodie Sophia Damery sounds really pretty.
As the names are listed, I don't like any of them.
I prefer the name Olivianna, rather than Olivia. I think it's much prettier.
I don't care for Mélodie (or Melody).
I prefer Lucille with Lucie as a nickname. Lucie is fine for a 5-year-old, but not a 55-year-old, I think.
I prefer Sophia with Sophie as a nickname.
But, I don't think any of the names make a good combo, with your way of spelling the names, or my way of spelling the names.
