Out there middle names...

As middle names are rarely used I want something a bit quirky for dc2. Boys middle name will be Fox. Any ideas for a girl? I'm 39 weeks and currently girls middle name is just a favourite off my list that dp didn't like enough as a first. Which I would be happy with but would like to think of something more unusual if possible. Pretentious, quirky, pagan, even things that aren't 'names' (like fox) welcome.

What are your favourite flowers or trees? Use the Latin name. Or flowers that will be in bloom on your due date?

I love the name Hero from Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing but would never quite be brave enough to use it.

I love queenie!

My DD's middle name is Love, suits her down to a tea and spices up her otherwise rather conventional name.

You could use Fox for a girl?

I'd really like Lovelace, after Ada, but think that the Linda connections have tainted it too much to ever really use it.
