I think Erin Elizabeth is pretty. And if you like it, go for it. Here in the USA, Erin has been a fairly common name, but I havent seen it used in awhile. Elizabeth is my personal favorite - that is my little girls name (Lillie Elizabeth). If it's not common in your area, that's all the more better! I say go w/it girl!

erin elizabeth is a good name. i hope this will help:

Erin is a Hiberno-English derivative of Irish Gaelic Éirinn, the dative case of Éire, the Irish word for "Peace". Nineteenth-century Irish nationalists also used Erin in English as a romantic name for Ireland, as shown in the catchphrase (when speaking of Ireland's experiences with Britain), "Let Erin Remember". According to Irish mythology and folklore, the name was given to the land by the Milesians after the goddess Ériu. Erin Go Bragh (Éireann Go Brách, in standard orthography), often heard during St. Patrick's Day, means "Ireland Forever". The etymological history of the word as it drifted throughout the Gaelic region gave rise to its use by the early Scots to both mean "Ireland", as well as "West", as Ireland lay to the geographic west of Scotland.

Erin is a popular modern name for both sexes, alternatively spelled as Eryn, Erynn, Eirinn, Aeryn, Eiryne or otherwise. It also contributed to many surnames, as well, for example "Erin-Vienne" (West Man/Irish Man) gave rise to the surnames of Irving, Irvine, Ervin, Irwin, Eryvine, Ervyne, etc. There are over 200 known derivations of the Erin root.

Elizabeth is the Greek form Ελισ(σ)άβετ Elis(s)avet of the Hebrew Elisheva, meaning "my God is an oath" or perhaps "my God is abundance." Derived from Elizabeth are many short forms and nicknames that are used in English-speaking countries; these include, but are not limited to, Babeth, Babette, Bess, Bessie, Bessy, Bet, Beth, Bethanne, Bethey, Betsie, Betta, Bette, Bettina, Betty, Bizzy, Buffy, Eli, Elisa, Elise, Eliza, Ellie, Elsie, Elspeth, Ilsa, Isabel, Isabella, Isobel, Lib, Libby, Liesl, Lili, Lilli, Lilie, Lillie, Lily, Lilly, Lilibet, Lilibeth, Lillibeth, Lillibet, Lilla, Lillah, Lisa, Lisbet, Lisbeth, Liz, Liza, Lizz, Lizzette, Lidabet, Lizzie, Lizine, Lizzy, Sissi, Tess, Tetsy, and Tetty.

God Bless!

Settle down girl! The name Erin Elizabeth doesn't really suit a boy.

I am an Erin myself, it is a lovely name! but oh so common in England now and in Canada and not that unusual in the States either i believe.

I chose my daughters name before conception, but when the hormones kicked in i changed my mind :)

Good luck with TTC

Your daughter will not be embarrassed by it either, i know i wasn't :)

What if its a boy i think you should be happy what ever you have as long as its healthy i kept saying maybe this time its going to be a girl ha ha after number four and there were all boys .They say to change what you eat and exercise more and when you're older than 34 you will have more chance than having a girl

That's a lovely name for a wee girl, but you should maybe also pick a nice boys name too just in case you get one.
