Right now both my DH & I are really liking this name with the mns of Lori (my Mom's name) and Georgina (family mn), which aren't really negotiable, & I've always thought the actress Piper Laurie (hey, she's remembered because of her name) had a cute name. So, wdyt of Piper Lori Georgina?

I like Piper a lot. I don't like Lori or Georgina very much, but you've got your reasons for using them and they flow pretty well. :)

I think Piper Lori Georgina flows well. If I heard this name I would wonder and probably ask the parents if the child was named after Piper Laurie. I don't think that (being asked the question) is a bad thing but others might.

I think it's nice. I wouldn't choose any of the names, but it's a nice combo and I think she'd be happy to have it as her name.

Piper...

I LOVE this name but I am VERY worried it is going to become the next Taylor or Madison.

Last year it was still fairly "un-popular" but it is rising very rapidly.

I don't think this name will ever get THAT popular. It's a love or hate name, and I think most who do like it only like it on someone ele's child, not their own.
It will be interesting to see what happens though.

Piper is my absolutely favorite name, but my husband has vetoed it. (We will be using Nora instead.) I like your combos.
Like another poster, I worry about the popularity. I have been hearing it more and more lately.

I'm in the minority, but I don't like Piper at all. It has a masculine sound and it's trendy.

I love Piper! The combo is good, especially with the special meanings of the middle names.

I don't care for Piper. It isn't pretty or feminine. I think it's great to use family names, and while I don't care for Lori, I like the combo Georgina Lori.

I love Georgina. Lori is a family name, so ok. Piper is boyish and trendy to me though, sorry...

Obviously I LOVE IT!! m

My daughters name is Piper Elizabeth. She is 10 weeks old now. I get lots of comments, good and bad....but we love it, and she fits it so well.

I like your combo!
