Middle name for Nora

Hi there. Just had baby this morning and want to call her Nora. Her big brother is Leo so think they sound nice together.

Trying to think of a middle name maybe a bit xmassy as she's a Boxing Day baby? All suggestions appreciated!

Some lovely suggestions there, including my own name which I did consider as it's quite xmassy.

Nora is my mothers name though so thought I'd better give DH the option of a say for middle name so we named her Nora Frances, after his grandmother. Not xmassy but as mentioned, Nora means light so that's seasonal in itself.

Totally forgot this thread in the midst of the newborn haze! Thanks for all the well wishes. Smile
