Giving a 2nd middle name (even though she is now 2)

So, this beautiful girl right here is my daughter. She has been suffering with leukaemia for a year and 3 months, this morning, she was given the all clear - I would love to add a second middle name... One that means strength (or along those lines)... Wondering if this is a bad idea? If you don't agree with changing a name? Her name is Eden Francesca... So, it would need to fit that :)

Aww she's absolutely beautiful. Look at her so happy. Even through her endurance. Children teach us so much, dont they. Apprieciation, patience . I don't doubt you feel imensley proud. You must be euthoric about her being given the all clear. What a wonderful end to what must have been a terrible year .
How about Victoria for 2cd middle name. It means Victorious/Triumphant. Or Bernadette it means as brave as a bear.

How about Valentina which means healthy, strong in Latin.

I think a second name is a lovely idea. And what a lovely way to start the New Year Thanks

No suggestions as to a middle name...I don't think she needs another as her name is beautiful...but she is your peach so enjoy her and give her any name you wish!!
