Baby name - Would it be bad?

Question

I really like the name Romance for a girl :) Most of my friends like it, but a couple have said it's mean, and they'd grow up to hate it. Others liked it more than 'Lily-Ella' - which I thought was pretty too! What do you guys think! :)

Answer 1

i would not name her either both are like naming a boy sue constant torment for the child kids are mean

Answer 2

I like Lily-Ella better but that's just me

Answer 3

I would kill my parents if they did that to me.  Give her a nice, classy, stylish name and give her the nickname Romance.

If you name her that she will get teased and do you really want that for your daughter.  You're supposed to love and protect her...not put her into a childhood full of teasing.

Answer 4

Gag! trend names are tacky.

trend names are the new "hippy" names, like Moonbeam or Rainbow were in the 60s.

Lily-Ella has too many 'L' sounds!  

Answer 5

She'd be teased.

Answer 6

I think its kinda pretty...it might grow on me. Its up to you, it doesnt matter what you name them they will go through a stage where they hate it no matter what it is.

Answer 7

Interesting. I'm not sure I have any opinion on it, but if you did name her Romance, she'd get teased. I personally don't like Lily-Ella, but that's just me. In any case, it's entirely up to you. :)

Answer 8

It's awful.  Totally not subtle at all.

Answer 9

Romance is kinda weird most and Lily-Ella sounds kinda weird too i suggest just naming her Lilly

Answer 10

i know i don't like Lily-Ella. its too trendy. i'm undecided about Romance. i dont hate it, but i just dont think of it as a name. maybe Valentine/Valentina instead?

Answer 11

The poor little girl would get teased her entire life. She'd want to change her name. It would be like naming her Apple, or something.

I like it more than Lily' Ella, simply because Lily- Ella has too many 'l' sounds.

Names I like:

Hanna- the spelling is unique.

Roxanne- Roxanna. Her nickname could be Roxy.

Emma Leigh- Its like Emily but not. :) First and middle name.

Sara- I like this spelling.

Ava- Short and Sweet.

Louisa- I like it. It's sweet sounding.

Alice- It's kind of uncommon now, and I think it's a sweet name.

Evelyn- She would have a few nickname options that would make sense.

Natalie- You might be able to change the spelling and make it unique.

Taylor- This is a nice name, but it might be too common.

May- I like it because it's short and sweet, and it's a good middle name.

Kayla- I like the way this name sounds.

Suzanne- Lots of nickname options when she's older.

Jade-- I like this nickname without things like 'lyn' attached to the end.

Georgia- You could name her after a state, or a place. Hehe.. "I'm Georgia from Georgia!"

Carolina- I like it because its like Caroline, but it has a unique twist. She could be Cara, or Charlie when she wants a nickname.

Aimee, Cheryl, Esme, Philippa, and Kayla mean things similar to Romance. Most of them mean 'Love' or 'To love'.

Hope you find a name that you like, but one that isn't too 'out there'. If you really want to name your girl Romance, go for it. But just remember that she may get teased because of it. Maybe us it as a middle name?

Answer 12

I think it sounds tacky. I can not imagine calling a 3 year old girl or an 80 year old woman romance. Seriously, think about it, one day she will be Granny Romance.

Answer 13

I dont thinks its mean, I like the name

I think Lily-Ella has too much of the "L" in it  

Answer 14

I actually like it, but I dont know if I would be brave enough to choose it. What about for a middle name, then if your daughter likes it, she can choose to be called that. How about Lily Romance?

Answer 15

I dont think using Romance as the first name would be very smart, she probably would get teased. If you like it that much, use it as her middle name.

Answer 16

Lily- Ella is very pretty.

I agree, being named Romance is just asking for her to be teased.

Answer 17

Definitely Liliella or Lilyella. it's very pretty. Romance is to cliche.
