Middle name for Amelia

Looking for ideas of middle names to go with Amelia Squires.
She has a sister Charlotte Grace, so can't use them.
It can't start with an "R" or "S"

We've gone for Emilia instead as we really wanted Rose as a middle name (it's a family name) and we can have them together without the unfortunate initials.

But thank you for all of the lovely suggestions Thanks

For anyone whose google is broken:
’Amelia, defined as the complete absence of the skeletal parts of a limb that occurs when the limb formation process is either prevented or interrupted very early in the developing embryo between 24 and 36 days following fertilization (1-4). Amelia is generally thought to be a sporadic anomaly’

NowEvenBetter · 02/02/2022 21:48

Yes, it does, it’s a medical term, feel free to google it.

@NowEvenBetter

It means ‘missing limb’, but that hasn’t put tens of thousands of people using it as a name in recent years. Do you really want a middle name? It’s a frilly name and the surname is a bit harsh sounding, so something short/smooth if a middle name is needed.
Eh? No it doesn't.

Some great suggestions for us to look through, thank you!

@NowEvenBetter in what origin does it mean "missing limb"? I haven't come across that description

Something simple and classic - Amelia Squires is very English in a charming way, but also a wee bit of a tongue twister. Two syllables is the best rhythm and you want to avoid vowels to start as that adds to the tongue twist (Amelia Edith etc).

Naughty Amelia Jane is an Enid Blyton book. There's a few of them. She's a mean rag doll that bullies the other toys in the toy cupboard!

Happenchance · 01/02/2022 14:01

Amelia Squires is a bit of a mouthful (to me anyway), so I'd go for something with a hard sound to break it up a bit. I like a PP's suggestion of Kate.

Amelia Caitlyn....Only because if we ever had a daughter their name would be Caitlyn Amelia so was 1st thing that came to mind! Will depend on the surname though!

Amelia Jane came to mind too- is this a character from a book?!
