There must be a middle name for Phoebe?

Think we've decided on Phoebe for our baby girl, however am REALLY struggling with middle names.

I tend to like names ending in y / ie sounds but don't like them with a first name with the same ending sound.
I think names with 3/4 syllables ending with an a sound go nicely with Phoebe but can't find one that seems right.

My other problem is I am using June as a 2nd middle name - after my nan, so 1 syllable names don't really work.

Think Phoebe Rose is beautiful, but Rose June is odd.
Like Phoebe Olivia/Amelia June - but not in love with either.
Like the name Emily but don't think Phoebe Emily works Confused

Please help me find a middle name I love there must be a name out there I havnt thought of.

Thank you

If DS had been a DD it would have been Phoebe Gabriella ??

I had Phoebe Francesca lined up for my third child - who turned out to be a Finlay

Phoebe is so cute Smile Did I imagine you mentioning Alice as a middle name a while back before you knew you were having a girl?
Does Phoebe Alice June work? Grin

I have no idea on names for our dd still.

My Phoebe is Phoebe Grace. Early nineties baby, and probably wouldn't chose that combo because of its recent popularity spike.

Phoebe Arabella June
Eh? EH?? Good, yes? Grin

Go the whole hog:
Phoebe Rocket June

I'm a bit scared by how much I like that

Mandy2003 · 10/04/2014 02:08

I thought Louise when I saw the title too! Would it work with June?

phoebe lettice

ItsNotATest · 10/04/2014 02:00

I think you need an 'a' ending, maybe:
Eliza
Sophia
Claudia
Tessa (like this one Smile)
Kiera
Alexandra

I have a Phoebe Caroline!

CleverOl10 · 10/04/2014 01:36

Phoebe Ella

PollyCazaletWannabe · 09/04/2014 20:59

Phoebe Annabel June
Phoebe Miriam June
Phoebe Louisa June
Phoebe June Alexandra
Phoebe June Isabella
Phoebe June Hermione
I think June sounds best in third place with a three syllable second name , and best in second place with a four syllable third name.
