Conjoined name or not?

We've told some friends that we are naming the baby Lily-Elle and a few have made the suggestion that we spell it as just one name, without the dash. I think it would be to confusing spelt as just one name.

cameragirl21 replied: personally i wouldn't use the hyphen but i wouldn't conjoin either, i'd just call her Lily Elle, kind of like how some people are called Mary Claire or Mary Catherine or Mary Beth or Anne Marie. I once knew a girl called Eden Rose, i found it kind of interesting and thought her name would have lost something if they'd called her Eden-Rose.
JMO of course.

I have honestly never thought of that. I just automatically use a hyphen, because my name is hyphenated (is that a word? ). I'll have to remember that and tell dh

I have to agree. My mother's name is Mary Anna (maryanna) without a middle name.
