Utterly. He suggested Imogen Ottilie Violet so we could nn her Io! I tried it out for awhile but I dunno. I can’t really warm up to Io, much (I waffle between saying EE- oh & EYE- oh). Both pronunciations are correct & acceptable but which one to pick?
That’s what bugs me about Io.

Conversely, He suggested Juno for a middle. As a compromise. He knows how much I love the letter J. I have Juno in the middle in 3 combos. Penelope Juno Alice, Beatrix Juno Frances & Elspeth Juno Violet. I think Juno’s a perfect middle name, for us!

I’ve never liked June always found it to be rather dowdy sounding. Juno sounds spunky to me.I think in a field of women named Amy, Katie, Kylie etc that Juno should work just fine in terms of how it ages. glad to see a ‘j’ name that doesn’t start with -jen that is liked. I actually wouldn’t mind carrying the name myself.
