Middle name for Isabella?

So, third girl due in a few weeks. We already have 2 girls and a boy... Emily Grace, Olivia Rose and Henry Joseph. We love Isabella as a first name but not sure what to choose as a middle name. Obviously we can't use Rose or Grace which, IMO, would go well. Any ideas?

a one syllable to contrast is obvious, but a two or three syllable works do.

I too was going to suggest Rose.

Try the two/ three syllable alteration in your mind, eg which do you prefer,

Isabella Louise or
Isabella Louisa

Then you can sift on the basis of rhythm.

Think these would go well: Eve, Skye, Brooke, Faith, Joy.

I was going to suggest Grace or Rose! All your children have lovely names. Isabella Lily?
