Middle name for Verity?

42 replies

SquashyMummy · 09/02/2018 20:03

Our first choice baby name is Verity but we're stuck on middle names. I like the sound of Verity Rose but Rose is quite similar in sound to our other child's name. Any other suggestions? TIA

Verity is gorgeous. I'd be tempted by a long middle! Maybe Verity Olivia? Especially as your surname is only two syllables. Choosing a middle name just for its one syllable feels fillery.

Rose
Rae
Faye
May
Ann

My first thought was Rose. Ageee with PPs about Anne/Ann. Ending in an N does seem to work well.

Wow so many responses, thank you!

Weebo our surname is two consonants ending in 'n'. I think that combination works too!

My initial instinct was for a one syllable middle name after a long first name. Perhaps because there are three syllables in my first name and my middle name is Jane. But there so many suggestions, I need to go away and think some more.

Thank you all Smile

What month is your Dd due? April, May and June are all pretty middle names too.
