As you might remember, I quite like the name Helen, and I am considering using to honor my art teacher who passed away last year. But its been quite a task to come up with the perfect middle name. I liked Helen Olympia at first, and though I think its a neat combo, I can't see myself really using it.

BUT...I just came up with the perfect combo:

Helen Juliet


Who knows, maybe one of you lovely people suggested it in a previous post and I'm just not remembering---so I don't want to take credit for it if that's the case....

BUT, regardless, what do you think? I think that it makes Helen, which is a dated old fashioned name (in my opinion), seem a bit more spunky and fresh.

Thanks guys. The more I look at it, the more I love it. I wasn't ever a huge fan of Juliet, but used as a middle name and paired with the right name, I'm starting to really like it...

Love it! It's very gorgeous! Juliet has grown on me too in the last couple of months.

I like Helena pro Helen-uh or Hel-ay-nuh better but I have to admit that Helen Juliet is a lovely combo :P

Maybe because it appears more feminine to me, I prefer the spelling Juliette. Helen Juliet is a wonderful name!!!! :P

Thanks Jessie! Though I like the spelling Juliette, I think I do prefer it spelt the traditional way. It looks a bit less cluttered to me...

What do you guys think of the nickname Len for Helen? I know I'm not usually one to pick nicknames, but its really hard for me to see Helen on a child...I kind of think Len would be a cute nickname while still getting to use the name I love

I agree! Juliet is much better.

Len is gorgeous! So is Lenny. Or Lenna. I can picture it on a little girl! :P
