Sister for Isabella

I am due a baby girl at the end of Feb. DH and I already have a gorgeous 2 year old called Isabella Rose. We would like a name preferably ending in A but not beginning with S as our surname does, goes well with Isabella and quite classic(not too eccentric). We would be very grateful for suggestions!

Sorry, just realised something.
This should be:

love Sophia but both myself and DH's name begin with and S as does our surname.

I have an Isabella and if I had had another Dd I think I would have gone with a shorter name as Isabella and say Amelia are too much of a mouthful. As it happens we had a DS, if he had been a girl I think we'd have called her Ruth or Ava.

The only ones that have stuck out for me so far are:

Victoria
Aurelia
Amelia/Emilia
Alexandra
Charlotte (but I detest Charlie)
Ophelia (but not sure if I could actually us it)
Anastasia (one that DH likes)
Octavia (gorgeous but is it a bit old-fashioned?)

love Sophia but boy myself and DH's name begin with and S as does our surname.

Both DH and I like Mae/May for a middle name

Ooh it would have to be Sophia/Sofia for me.

Olivia (too popular?)
Sophia

Madeleine is pronounced Madel-IN (English) or Madel-EN (French) - this is the traditional spelling (IMHO).

Madeline is Madel-EYE-n.

Underachieving · 22/02/2011 21:43

I think Amelia and Isabella go well together.
