As title, we have decided on Martha if baby is a girl but cannot think of a middle name.

Alice is lovely but Iris, especially with link to your Nan trumps it. My two have middle names after relatives and I love the links even more as they grow up.

Ours has Elizabeth. Other contenders were Iris and Audrey (both family names).

We were going to name our DC1 Martha Mary - then we discovered we were batting for team blue

Martha Alice is quite hard to say with the A at the end of Martha and another one at the beginning of Alice.

Imvho.

I LOVE Martha Iris May

Martha is on my list for DC3. Middle names will be Alice Eva after mine and DH's grandmas.

LoveWillTearUsApart · 01/11/2014 10:26

If I'd've had a girl, she would have been Martha Alison - very similar to the two Martha Alices on this thread!

Martha would have been after my great-grandmother, Alison after my friend.

Iris is beautiful, Martha Iris is a lovely pairing. Both were on my list. I also like Martha Louise (probably showing myself as a child of the 80's there) and Martha Agnes. Depends on how it scans with your surname as well.

Martha Rose is nice but know Rose is very popular as a middle name. The nartha I know has her grandmas' names as middle names but I can't remember what they are. Was trying to just this morning actually as it's her christening today.

BikeRunSki · 01/11/2014 07:24

Martha Alice is lovely!

BlueStarsAtNight · 01/11/2014 07:21

I don't think a middle name starting with a vowel works well, it's awkward to say after the a of Martha.
I like:
Martha Jane
Martha Lucy
Martha Florence
Martha Caroline
Martha Zoe
Martha Harriet

I have a Martha Alice.

saintsandpoets · 31/10/2014 23:27

Relative names are a nice idea, but are based in the hope that family have nice names.

I was investigating DH's female family names, and the best he has got is Pauline and Agnes!

Martha Nan's name Rose

Martha Nan's name May

IneedAwittierNickname · 31/10/2014 23:01

Grace.
My friends dd is called Martha and I can't for the life of me remember her middle name! I definitely don't call her Martha Arthur

calzone · 31/10/2014 23:01

MintChocAddict · 31/10/2014 23:00
