I missed your question on middle names. Personally I like family/meaningful names in the middle spot. I'd try to avoid Rose, Grace, May which are so common in the middle spot at the moment. Would you consider using any of the names on your list for a middle name if you don't use it for a first name?

Lydia - pretty, not the most exciting name
Ottilie - very trendy and I don't see the appeal at all
Adina - it's ok, but feels a bit insubstantial and generic. Maybe because I know two young Alinas, an Amina and an Athena, so another A_ina name just feels meh
Maisie - twee and popular
Fern - love Fern. It's so pretty and simple. One of my favourites
Hebe - I love it, but it's polarising
Claudia - my other favourite. It's so classy and elegant
