Middle name for Eileen?

[LavenderHills]

We've definitely decided on Eileen, but are stuck for a middle name that sounds nice with it. Any ideas, please?

Marie
Louise

Joy for some reason came to me when I saw your post

Eileen Victoria
Eileen Sophia
Eileen Maria

Something fairly classic, as Eileen is quite a strong flavour, so it would be good if her middle name gave her an option

Eileen Frances
Eileen Elizabeth
Eileen Lucy / Louise
Eileen Sophie

I think middle names should have meaning/ significance so would probably use a family name.

Eileen Elizabeth is nice though. I think 3 syllables works well.
Eileen Isabelle
Eileen Jemima

I quite like Eileen - think it is due a comeback. Also like Aileen.

Come on Eileen...
Years and years of this.
Poor kid.

Doreen?

Something with the emphasis on the second syllable. Like Jemima or Marie.
Catriona?
Patricia?
Felicity?
Miranda?

Ah someone beat me to it with come on 🤣

Too loo rye aye

I always think just choosing a middle name is daft.
If you have a family name you'd like to honour use that if not why chose just for the sake of it

Too loo rye aye

Beaut

Eileen Frances
Eileen Matilda
Eileen Ruth

Something along the lines of Mary, Kate, Beatrice, Megan, Harriet... or anything that doesn't have an 'l' or is a very vowelly name.

It's got to be Talullah! Come on Eileen Talullah hey

Ps: I love Eileen. Definitely due a revival!

Come on Eileen... Years and years of this. Poor kid.

I had this when the song was released in the eighties. It wasn't so bad!

Maybe I will start to like my name if it makes a comeback. Always hated it. I'm 54 and it was old fashioned when my parents picked it. Everyone had an Auntie Eileen or a granny called Eileen! Maybe it's finally so old it's cool.

Jean has made a comeback recently, so I see no reason why Eileen shouldn't.

I know an Esme who is in her 80s and she couldn't believe it when her name made a comeback, but Esmes are everywhere now

Eileen Rose (yes I know Rose as a middle name is scoffed at on here but I love the name Rose)

Eileen Marie

Eileen Frances

Eileen Felicity

Eileen Alexandra

Really like suggestions if Eileen Isabelle and Eileen Alexandra! Both really nice.

I wouldn’t worry too much about come on Eileen. It’s not really a bad association, is it? And you could pick any name and then a year later have a song/movie etc released that goes crazy popular and leads to your child listening to choruses of it forever.

Eileen hope

Mary

My nans name was Eileen rose so I'm Gona say that !

I agree with this. How many of her peers will know the song as well. We only know it because we're old enough.

Apart from my own (amazing) suggestion, I also like Eileen Miranda 😍. Gorgeous!
