Consider this:
1. How does it sound when you yell it out the back or front door for your child to come home from playing somewhere in the neighborhood?
2. How upset would your child be if she goes by the name Jackie and she has a teacher who insists that she has to write her full first name out on every paper she ever turns in (some children realize very quickly that a shorter name is nicer than a longer name).
3. You like all these names, but why not plan on calling one daughter Eunice Marie, one Jacqueline, one Jean, one Ethel, rather than attaching all the names you like to one child. I still have one name that I really like, but haven't used. So when and if I have any other children I have a name in reserve to use.
4. One other person you have to consider, your spouse! How will he react to that name attached to his child. My husband and I had an agreement. Since I was having the child, I chose the first name, he chose the 2nd.
5. How will this name sound with the child's last name.
6. What will her initials look like. You don't want to give a child intials that spells out something like MAL - bad in French, APE, EEL, etc.
Just my own personal opinion on the name is that it is too long and a name is forever (granted she could change it when she gets older, but why make her go through all the legal maneuvering).

Please don't burden a child with this.It a best will be made fun of and by the time the child is an adult no female Kennedy name will be recog nized other than Jacqueline. remember that you may be having fun compiling this name it is your daughter who will have to live with it,spell it over and over for people.Pick one name for a first name and one name for a middle name.This loooong name would be like tying a rock around this childs life forever.

I think its beautiful...I love long names that are different. Why do you like all the kennedy names? those are all well known names just combined? Why dont you try a website that has other pretty names that you can use and combine those instead.
babynameaddicts.com is a good website....Try that website (BTW the site is down now...but it is an excellent source of good names)

Whatever you decide will be permanent. So think before you act! Most likely she will as she gets older prefer a nickname that has nothing to do with her given name because it is so long. Like one person mentioned ahead of me, break it up and name one daughter with half of the name and another one with the other half. Don't burden this one child with that long name just because of preference. Think of what she has to live with for the rest of her life? She might despise you for it. Can you live with that?

I think it is over the top and too long.The poor girl will never be able to fit that name on any application without having an extension put on the paper. I don't understand this trend towards unusual or weird names.

I don't think so! Try shortening it to Jacqueline Jean; Or, Jacqueline Marie... You really don't want to put too much stuff into a name....

Please don't give your child a name that's longer than she'll be when she's learning to write it! You could name triplets with that name! Pick your favorite two out of that and write that on her birth certificate! I had a friend named Theresa Alexandrea (very long last name) and she hated it... she was very much "just call me Reesie" and wanted nothing to do with writing out her whole name. And that's just two normal names!

I'd shoot myself if that was my name. Imagine if you had to write that down every time you fill out a form!
I don't even have a middle name and I can't thank my parents enough.
There are so many ways to express yourself and your creativity. You're childs name really shouldn't be one of it!!!
