I think I have a name, or two...

Ok,  I haven't really been able to find a name better than the one my fiance' loves which is- 'Aolani.

So please help with which sounds better?
 Aolani Elise Glover  ~or~   Aolani Elizabeth-Elise glover ?

I also recently heard the name Aeres/Aeris (sounds like heiress) (If the spelling with the 'ae' beginning is correct?)

I think that could be pretty too, Aeris Elise Glover ?

I like Aeris better than Aolani (unless you are of hawaiian descent).
I'll frown a bit at Elizabeth-Elise because it would be like Jennifer-Jen or Benjamin-Ben.

I agree with th3_unicorn.

I prefer Aeris Elizabeth. Aeris and Elise sound too much alike.

I like Aeris a lot better than Aolani. I think Aeris Elise Glover sounds really pretty.

Elizabeth-Elise is a definite no for the middle name, though. Hyphenated middle names seem weird to me to begin with (why not just do two middle names?) and Elizabeth and Elise are WAY too similar.

i totally agree. Elizabeth-Elise is overkill for me and are way too similar anyway. As for Aeris or Aolani, I vote for Aeris, definitely.

Yes, as the first poster said, using both Elizabeth and Elise is a bit redundant. After all, Elise is a French short form of Elisabeth.

I was about to point that out.

I have a soft spot for Hawaiian, phonetic names! Aolani Elise is lovely, if a little heavy on the vowels.

Aeres/Aeris sounds and looks like bastardized version of Ares and Aries. I also think Aolani sounds fairly ridiculous and unless you or your fiance is Hawaiian, I would caution you to use it.

I loooove the Aolani! And i think it sounds better with Elizabeth only!

i like Aeris. how about Aeris Elizabeth?

I like all the honesty!

I really appreciate the help in judgment too! Aeris Elizabeth Glover does sound pretty too. The reason I try to keep Elise is for family tradition... part of the reason I like Elizabeth is for the Z, and the nickname possibilities. It ties with the name of my Fiance's first daughter, which is Zephyr. Her middle name, Michelle. I think he and I are going to be at bit of an odds for a bit about resolving which name to give her! He thinks it's up to him cause I'm going to be so loopy from the epidural! I have known a person to give her daughter Ladruca as a middle name-it was supposed to be Dracula backwards! I'll see if I can get him to love the other name-since neither of us are Hawaiian. We both do really want a beautiful unique name though... Thanks so much for the comments!
