All,
Any suggestions for a middle name for our little girl?
I love Harriet Grace but I'm a little worried Harriet Grace Jones is too close to the 80s singer.... any other ideas or comments on this much appreciated.

Sounds nice. I don't think many of her generation will make the Grace Jones connection. Go for it!

I don't know, but I do know that that is a beautifully flowing name!
I'm rubbish at thinking of names - I think that 1 syllable is probably the way to go so you can keep that flow - something like Harriet Jane Jones (depending on how you feel about aliteration/the name Jane)
Wasn't Harriet Jones MP, in Dr Who? I think of that rather than Grace Jones.
Think Grace is fine.

Yes, I think of Doctor Who rather than of Grace Jones.
I wouldn't let it put you off though. Her peers won't think it.

Harriet Louisa Jones
Harriet Emily Jones
Harriet Serena Jones
Harriet Corinna Jones
Harriet Ivy Jones
Harriet Victoria Jones
Something beginning with an 'S' , ending in 'a' and with 3 syllables - Serena, Selina, Susanna [can't think of any more ].
x post Popcorn, we picked the same one - Serena.

I also think Dr Who! I also agree with others who've said a single or three syllable name fits best. Harriet Kate or Harriet Victoria are lovely?

I think as a middle name its ok, but not as a first. I'm a Jones too...
Harriet Jones is lovely.
Harriet Eloise Jones or Harriet Elodie Jones

I was going for Eliza too (we're Jones too, and dd2s middle name is Eliza, dd1 has 2 middle names, Elin Patricia)

I second Harriet Amelia Jones - I think it needs to be a two or three syllable name.
