Baby Julia needs a middle name ✨

Baby is due this week. We are 99% sure she will be Julia but have not decided on a middle name. My favorites are Jane and Rose. DH prefers Elizabeth or Claire. Does anyone have suggestions on or off the list? Last name begins with C and is 2 syllables. Thanks!

Julia Jane
Julia Rose
Julia Elizabeth
Julia Claire
Julia Vivienne
Julia Evelyn
Julia …

Julia Jane. They work really well together for a two syllable surname. Tell DH you’ll consider Elizabeth or Clare for any future daughter.

Julia is beautiful 😍
I know it's an old name but I've only come across it in the last year. It's gorgeous.

There are loads of middle names that go with it. I'd choose something with meaning, your mums or grannies name, maybe if either of them goes.

Before I read the suggestions I was going to suggest Rose.

if you like JJ how about Joy as an alternative to Jane or Jayne

I think with a 3 syllable first name - Julia, a longer name like Elizabeth doesn’t work so well.

Julia Jane is beautiful.

PreggersWithBaby2 · 29/09/2024 00:19

Would you leave it as Julia with no second name if you are struggling go pick one?

Julia Jane is great.

But best of all is when a kid is given the hideously unfashionable name of a lovely aunt or great aunt. Julia Jacqueline or Julia Phyllis.

Scutterbug · 29/09/2024 00:15

I like them all except Julia Elizabeth which feels a bit of a mouthful.

Would you want JJ as a nickname? Because that is possible with Jane

I’m ok with JJ as a nickname, it’s cute!
