Which sounds best to you: Evelyn Rose, Eleanor Rose, or Juliet Rose? I know Rose as a middle name is super common and some people don’t like it, but I still love it lol. Which one would you pick? Also, if Rose wasn’t the middle name, which first name is your favorite on its own?

Eleanor is gorgeous timeless with cute nicknames. What about Eleanor Juliet ?

Not anything Rose. It's so meh as a middle name you might as well not bother.

Evelyn - don't like it at all and she'll be Evie.
Eleanor - classic but I'm not keen on it. Will be Ellie.
Juliet - ok but I don't like it said as Julie-Ette and I don't like Jools/Jules

I'd carry on looking.

If Rose didn't have to be part of the name, I would choose Juliet. Otherwise, Evelyn Rose sounds the nicest together.
