My mum is called sue so thought that would be a nice middle name, do you think it goes with a Phoebe that’s the first name DH and I have chosen.

Phoebe Susannah might be nice.

"Sue" is odd,.isn't it. So popular in its day and so hard to see it coming back!

Phoebe Sue. It sounds very cute.

Phoebe yes

Sue no. Not even for a middle name.

Lovely

I know a little girl with Sue as her middle name

Very Peggy Sue Vibes

I’d like Phoebe Susan personally, but it’s cute

Honestly middle names don’t matter that much. Dd and ds both have names that honour family members/ are family names but are either a bit retro (dd) or boring (ds). I didn’t give it much thought as to whether I liked the middle names, only given names, and I’ve never regretted that approach. It’s really only ever for official forms.

I much prefer family middle names and is your mum Sue or Susie/Susan?
I'd go with her actual name and definitely as a middle name not hyphenated to her first name.

I love it! Sounds cute and a bit 1950s in a fun vintage way (which to me is a good thing)

Lovely! Love the name Phoebe and love a middle name to honour a relative. They sound nice together, which is a bonus.

Yes it's very sweet

It's fine, as long as you don't hyphenate it, in which case it would sound like something from Ted. But if you're just going to use Phoebe as her everyday name, then yes, it's lovely. Congratulations on your little girl.
