Middle name for ramona

30 replies

Evening
We've pretty much decided that if we have a girl we'll call her ramona. I'm trying to think of a short name to go as a middle name e.g. Ramona Jane. Thing is I hate the name Jane! Any ideas? I'm thinking one syllable beginning with a consonant tho I could be wrong. Our surname starts with M and is 2 syllables.
Thanks :)

Hmm lottie you could be right actually, my middle names Mary so we could just pass it down. I did consider rose as a middle name because its my granny's, but then became aware if how massively overused it is!!
I quite like estelle too actually...

Or something like Hebe. Strong consonants, ending in an ie sound works.

For some reason I am thinking Ramona Estelle. I'm not sure why. I'm not even a huge fan of the name Estelle but it popped into my head and sounded nice.

With your surname, Mary, Mia, Mina or another two syllable name could work well. I like the flow of Ms through each name, personally.

Ramona Roxanne.
Ramona Raven.

Please not May, Grace or Rose, unless you have a particular affinity for one of them. They're ridiculously overused!

Ramona is great btw :)

Agree with missalien, I know Rose is popular, but it flows in a really lovely way (as well as evoking Ramona Flowers, who is one of my favourite characters Grin)

Ramona rose ?

I know it has 2 syllables, but I think Ramona Lily sounds nice.

Ramona May.

Fabulous name!

All the short snappy middle names go I think. Really wanted to have a Ramona but dh not so keen at the time

Its a lovely name but for me has huge connotations of Ramona Quimby!
