Amelie - J middle names?

62 replies

BlueSky57 · 03/07/2022 11:44

Hi all. First baby due in a few weeks & the only first name my husband & I can agree on is Amelie.

Now we are stuck on middle names but have quite a common last name (Evans), so feel a middle name is needed.

We both have middle names beginning with J (mine is Jade & his is Jamie) so thinking a J middle name would be nice.

Amelie Jade is fine but would maybe be last option as I’m not sure if it’s a bit weird to give baby the exact same middle name as me?

Any ideas welcome! Thanks

I personally think you can go a bit more unusual with a middle name than a first name

LOVE Amelie Jewel!

I like Amelie Joy better than the two new ones

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. Amelie Joy is standing out for me at the moment I think.

My husband now likes Amelie Madison or Amelie Hannah! I quite like both too. What are your thoughts on these?

Does it matter if Jane was a popular middle name in the 80s? We aren't in the 80s now.

Joy. Beautiful name.

My son has the same middle name as his dad & paternal GF.

My daughter has the same middle name as my mum & maternal GM.

If you like Amelie Jade, use it!

My middle name is the family middle name for the first born girl. There must be about 5 of us with that name.

@GrinAndVomit I know a Louise Jane and a Jane Louise. Guess which decade they were both born in? You got one or the other!

Hahaha

Not Jane. Please not Jane. Jane is the 80's middle name. The Rose/Grace/May of the 80's. I actually like all 3 of those names, but it seems to be the only middle names anyone uses today. Everyone I know my age has Jane as their middle name.

Nah, Louise is the middle name of the 80’s

Whatever you choose, consider the initials very carefully to avoid anything unfortunate!

I had the book Amelia Jane Is Naughty Again. I loved it.

I think a 3-syllable middle babe would glow nicely between Amelia and Evans. Like, Amelia Caroline Evans. It's not a J though.

I'll get my coat.

I like Jay - it reflects both your middle names without being exactly the same, and a jay is such a beautiful, colourful bird.
