This name combines all the necessary names needed to honor the people we want to in our family. Is it terrible?

I prefer Apple Pie a la Mode.

I'm hoping this is just some sort of sarcasm connected to the celebrity baby Apple.
I like the Johanna. too many Sarah's around, too common, too plain.
I find it quite appealing. I love the name Johanna.
Sarah Johanna, as a double name would be very pretty too.
Good luck, Ginger
I personally don't care for three names, but that and the "Apple" thing aside, I'm not sure this is the prettiest combination with all the short a's. Based on your response as to the source of "Apple", may I suggest Sarah May Johanna or Sarah Johanna Parish?
As far as Apple goes, I just can't see saddling a child with the first name of Apple, even if it's to honor someone. If your last name is Greene (as screen name implies), Apple Greene would be hard to live with, I think.
Good luck - I respect your wish to honor loved ones in your life, but please reconsider the Apple part.
I know I'm in the minority, but I have to say that I like Apple as a name.
Raiding the pantry is really no different that raiding the garden (Lily, Daisy...) or raiding the atlas (Dylan, Dakota, Cheyenne...).
I tend to like very conservative, old fashioned names. I usually dislike a name once I hear it all over the place (trendy), and I hate weird spellings. So it's odd that I would like Apple. But I do. So go figure.
Anyway, as long as it's spelling correctly, I like Apple.
However, there is no flow with Apple Sarah Johanna. Sarah Johanna is nice. I also like Sarah Johanna Apple as well (having Apple as a mn wouldn't bother as many people, I guess).
As far as nicknames go (for your later post), I prefer using Sadie for Sarah or Josie for Johanna, although I'm not sure Josie is a correct name for Johanna.
Good luck!

Now that you've explained, I have other ideas-
Appleton has potential. In fact, I'd call her Appleton as opposed to Apple, I think... Though I must dissent from the popular opinion here anyway. Apple has some distant, gnawing appeal for me. What would hold me back is being on the heels of Gwyneth Paltrow.
Sarah Appleton Johanna has better flow, to me- nn- Sadie, Sally?
Sarah Anna Appleton
Sarah Hanna Appleton
My very fave is Sarah Johanna Appleton called Sarah Johanna or Sarah Jo.
By the way, what are g-mas other names?
Take care, Ginger
I actually love the combo...but is your last name really Greene? Cause if it is....don't do it. Apple Greene is bad. Sorry!
