Middle name to go with Autumn?

Hello fellow Mumsnetters...
So, we have found out we are having a little girly.
I love the name Autumn, my husband likes it too, but is reluctant as you cant shorten it. We are thinking of a middle name so we can shorten her name to AJ ( eg if she was called Autumn Jessica)
I originally wanted Autumn Saffron, but this would make her initials ASS as my surname starts with S.
So, can anyone come up with some nice middle names? Or ideas for shortening Autumn. To be honest I don't thinks its a big deal to not be able to shorten it, but its important to my husband.

BH - J was just an idea tbh, ta for the suggestions!

I agree Bowlersarm, but husband is adamant.
Also, without wanting to sound like too much of a weirdo, I call my cat everything but his name, from fuckhead (affectionate term of course) to mitten kitten. My logic being, that, we will probably have our own little nickname for our daughter.

I love shortened names but I don't think Autumn needs shortening. It's only two syllables. The same as AJ would be!

Autumn Jasmine
Autumn Jemima
Autumn Josephine
Autumn Joy

Are the any other letters that you like combined with the A to make a nickname?
