Less than 4 weeks until my due date and we still haven't been able to figure out a middle name for our baby girl!

My grandmas name was Doreen and I'd love to have something similar. I've considered "Dora" but the baby's first name ends in "a" and I think it sounds too similar.

Does anyone have any ideas please?Smile

Doireann is Doreen in Irish and is pronounced Dir-in

Was going to suggest this too, Doireann is a beautiful name.
