A middle name for Florence

No options needed on the name Florence, we love it Grin

Can't think of a single middle name but we really want to decide. I quite like nature/flowery names but I cant think of anything that flows nicely. Open to anything though. Surname is white short, 2 syllables begins with B.

Disagree with user.......
Nothing ridiculous about those initials. As long as they don't spell anything rude who would care? Or even notice?

I wouldn't consider a middle name beginning with a vowel, with first and last initials F and B her initials will form a word - FAB, FEB, FIB, FOB... or FUB, which looks ridiculous.

Also wouldn't have a middle name starting with F, L, R or S, too much of a mouthful.

Florence is a lovely name. Most people don't use their middle names anyway, except filling in forms, but there are letter combinations that flow easily or really badly in a signature if it includes two initials followed by the surname, eg FJBabyname would be an easier and quicker signature than FTBabyname or FHBabyname.

Make her life easy!

Florence Helena (pronounced (h)ell-ay-na rather than hell-ah-na)
Really like a Florence Eleanor as well, as per a previous suggestion. Deffo 2+ syllables and preferably ending in an 'a' type sound

Basically I think it needs a middle name that begins with a vowel as I think this flows better.

Beautiful name.
