Middle Name

We have decided on Sophie for our next DD (yes we know it's extremely popular but that does not bother us!)

We just need to decide on a middle name.
Surname is Aldcock pronounced old-cock ... unfortunately! so we've ruled out Rose and May.
I really like Kate but think Sophie Kate sounds like suffocate?!
So shortlisted are:

Sophie Grace Aldcock
Sophie Dawn Aldcock
Sophie Jane Aldcock

Which do you prefer? Or any other suggestions welcome, thank you.

Sophie Jane

Grace is massively common as a first and middle name and Dawn seems very dated.

I should have said that I realise Grace is also extremely popular, that Jane may be seen as a bit plain, and that Dawn may be dated but it's my middle name.

With a tricky surname it's even more difficult naming children! And as it is so unusual / comical and one you have to spell to people all the time, we are drawn to classic, simple (& yes popular) names.

Why not Katherine instead of Kate?

we also have an awkwarf surname (includes tit!) BUT Katherine was fine for my dd1

Very good idea to choose a simple and classic name with an unusual and tricky surname, and fwiw, Sophie is lovely.
