Decided on Kate- middle name Bryony?

DH and I have decided DD will definitely be Kate.

I really love Bryony as a mn but not sure it flows too well. Surname starts with an S- 4 syllables and one of the lead actors in The Vampire Diaries.

I love Lana too but Kate Lana doesn't go well at all- perhaps Kate Alana?

Any suggestions welcome :)

I also don't think Bryony works.

Would you consider Katherine as a full name? You may find more middle names work well with Katherine than with Kate. She could still be known as Kate but when she gives her full name, it would flow better. Bryony even sounds much better after Katherine.

Kate Elizabeth instantly popped into my head though.

Hope this helps x

i agree, i am not sure kate bryony flows very well, i always think it's hard with a 1 syllable first name, so i suggest a 4 syllable middle name... kate alana goes well :)
