Middle name for lg

Had a little girl this week and have named her a name which gets very mixed reviews on here...April! Took us a few days to name her, and prior to deciding her planned middle name was going to be May. This obviously doesn't work now, and have no other family name that fits so looking for suggestions. I like April Louise but not sure the double L go together? OH likes April Jane but not sure it's too like June! Any help please???

No help at all but I have to say I was wondering who on earth would name a child Ig when I read the title Confused

I really like April May.

April Jane is too similar to June and mat would be a bit of a joke

April Charlotte

Haha pinker- that's why I opened it- was going to suggest 'noramous' as the middle name Wink

The double L sound in April Louise is too much. And yes, April Jane is too close to April June. How about:

April Grace
April Faye
April Victoria
April Frances
April Rebecca
April Catherine
April Margaret

For a minute I thought that baby's name was Ig. I was thinking that's a strange name but must be what babies are being called these days - d'oh.

I was going to suggest Louise as a middle name for Ig!

I think that April Louise is fine. Might be helpful to give an idea as to the surname - just a general idea of length or sound would be enough. Although I think that both April Louise Brown and April Louise Cholmondeley-Warner actually sound fine Grin
