Carina looks better than Karina. I like that. I think that goes best with Gracie as a first name.

Tinty · 02/02/2019 11:03

Gracie Astrid J or even better Grace Astrid J or better again
Astrid Grace J.

I think all the middle names are lovely but that they flow better after Grace. You could still call her Gracie.

tigerquoell has this sussed with the syllables.

Josico58 · 01/02/2019 15:53

I would choose something with 1 syllable. Someone above posted "anything but May", I think May is nice, but Gracie-May sounds like you're saying the singer Macy Gray's name muddled up.

My suggestions:

Gracie Ann
Gracie Claire
Gracie June
Gracie Bea (I like this)
Gracie Belle
Gracie Brooke
Gracie Fleur
Gracie Laure (I like this)
Gracie Maeve
Gracie Paige
Gracie Pearl
Gracie Rose (like this)
Gracie-Lou (if you wanted to tag on to 1st name, not suggesting Lou as a middle name)

Can't think of any more. Do you have any nice names from your mum, MIL, sisters, friends that you could give a nod to?

Gracie is a pretty first name.

Tracey?
Fields?

Please at least consider PPs comments about putting Grace on the BC. I wouldn't want to be an adult called Gracie and your daughter may feel the same.

Gracie Elena
Gracie Alannah
Gracie Alexandra
Gracie Emilia

Gracie Lydia is lovely so is Lydia Grace ! ❤️ I love Persephone but not with Gracie

BrylcreamBeret · 01/02/2019 08:41

Gracie Lydia is the only name I like

Gracie Katherine
Gracie Charlotte
Gracie Emmeline

I think a longer middle name is better

MrsElijahMikaelson1 · 01/02/2019 08:12

I also prefer Grace to Gracie which is a little twee-I would name Grace Lydia and keep Gracie as a nn.

Stinkytoe · 01/02/2019 08:10

I think Grace would be better for her birth certificate. Gracie is very cute but she might prefer a more grown up name when she’s older.

WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup · 01/02/2019 08:09

Gracie is cute as a pet name for Grace.

tammytoby · 01/02/2019 08:05

I much prefer your middle names - love them all, especially Stella and Lydia!

I don't like Gracie though.

TheDowagerCuntess · 01/02/2019 08:04

Couldn't agree more with Sessy - your middle names are way more interesting that Gracie. Which would be much improved by just going with Grace.

glitterbiscuits · 01/02/2019 07:59

Stacey?

Sessy19 · 01/02/2019 07:57

You have these beautiful names set out and you’re relegating them to ‘middle name’ in favour of bleugh ‘Gracie’?

Astronica · 01/02/2019 00:35

I don't like Gracie Amelia as much as Lydia and Karina because the vowel sounds at the end and beginning run into each other, and also Amelia is very popular and more expected than Lydia or Karina.

On balance I think Gracie Lydia is my favourite. Lovely name!

RonaldMcDonald · 01/02/2019 00:25

Tracey

HeronLanyon · 01/02/2019 00:23

@HeronLaynon:
Umm... Sorry but not really, since we're asking for opinions for her middle name...

Anything but May.
I think all of your middle names are lovely BUT all sit better with Grace not Gracie. Persephone and Stella I like less with Gracie asnthey introduce too many sybillant s’s Into the name.
Lydia is a favourite name of mine. How about Lydia grace.
