I've been tossing Claire around for a bit, WDYT of it? Lately, I've been liking short & simple names. Any combo suggestions (I have to use family names, but I love suggestions)? Claire Elisabeth Rose? Claire Julianna / Dorothea Irene? Would Grace & Claire work as siblings (not that I want them to be too matchy-matchy or mis-matchy)?

I LOVE the name Claire! It's crisp and refreshing. Claire Elisabeth Rose is beautiful. Claire and Grace would make a wonderful sibset.

Although I prefer Clara , I think that Claire is really cute. I love short and simple names too. Claire Elisabeth Rose sounds pretty.
I actually know a family whose kids are named Benjamin, Grace and Claire. The names sound lovely together in my opinion.

I like Claire- I think it's beautiful but I wouldn't use it because DH once had a (very obvious) crush on a woman named Claire.

I like Claire a lot because it sounds nice and has a nice meaning too. Elisabeth and Rose are also very nice as mns for Claire. Grace is also very nice and they work as siblings.

Claire is a very nice name. Indeed short, simple, and sweet. I like Claire Elizabeth Rose (this spelling of Elizabeth only) and Claire Julianna. I only like Grace as a middle name, but I don't find them "matching," and I prefer sibling sets to be "mis-matchy."

I think Claire is okay. I know a little girl Claire and she is as adorable as can be. The name itself doesnt appeal too much to me, so I would never use it, but I dont dislike it.

I think Claire and Grace would be cute for sisters.

Claire is very pretty, simple & classic sounding. It also sounds great with Grace.

Claire Elisabeth Rose is pretty, although a little plain for my taste. Claire Irene Rose sounds pretty too.

At one point I really liked the combo Amelia Claire.
