Hi everyone, please could you help suggest some girls middle names ending in -eine, -ine or -yn?

I'm thinking about names like

Catherine
Madeleine
Jocelyn

I'm sure there are loads more but can't think of them!

Has anyone used these as middle names? Our first name SL all end in an "a", so names like

Jessica
Rebecca
Melissa

I know it makes the name kind of long but no-one ever says your full name really so that's fine.

Thanks in advance x

These are great, thanks everyone. DH is so fussy he'll only agree to what he thinks are "normal" ie very traditional names. It kind of restricts the options a bit.

Jilted - I love Adeleide but DH would never agree! :(

I wouldn't worry about the length, all 3 of my names are long and yet still my mother manages to triple name me when she is angry Grin

LOL chrisrobin that's hilarious! I'd never thought of using the kids' names in that way :)

Thanks pepsi and darlene, that's loads of names for me to think about. Where are you getting them all from?!

Set the search to "girl" and "ending" so you get all the names ending with particular letters :)

Bear in mind though that lovely and feminine sounding as Bronwyn is, the -wyn ending in welsh signifies a boy's name! Bronwen and Branwen are lovely :)
